Filmography and Data Links

Note that each film title is linked to an entry on the Internet Movie Database, which contains the data on each film. Most films in the IMDB also have their movie posters, stills, and theatrical trailers availale. Don't forget to consider these materials when you approach the film's point of view, because they represent the point of view that the studios thought they were marketing to.

The last element in each entry is the call number for the DVD or VHS version of the film from the Undergraduate Library collection, where they may be viewed.
