Barbara! I am afraid I was suffering from a profound case of "whimsies"
when I penned my little
little missive yesterday afternoon. My apologies!
Best,
Anthony

You're overthinking it. It was an effective way to get away from
having hundreds of PN1997s. We can tweak it anyway we want to.
Hitchcock is in British films, but could just as easily been classed
with American. Same for whether or not to place Bunuel in Spanish or
French.
Billy Wilder is considered an American (i.e. Hollywood) director, so
his films are within American.
And if it was a problem having Brokeback mixed in with a handful of
Asian films, we'd have found a way to reclass it to land within
American films.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
distributors.
