You'll probably have to go to an archive to find the material you are

looking for.  For example, you can find some correspondence and other

material from Dore Schary relating to CROSSFIRE at the Center for Film

and TV Study at Madison, WI, but even that had little to say about the

film's stylistics.  Ask your librarian for help in locating archives

with collections of papers, etc. from the individuals involved.  A good

place to make inquiries might be the UCLA Film Archive at:

http://www.cinema.ucla.edu/



One more accessible possibility might lie in the ancillary materials on

DVD versions of some of the better-known films.

Hi,



I am studying the phenomenon or era (certainly not genre) in American

film history known as film noir.  I am trying to find any notes or

journals kept by directors (or technicians, etc.) who worked on films

noirs.  There is a load of secondary sources, but the primary material

is not as plentiful.



Also, I would like to view (borrow or buy or rent) a VHS tape of the

Anthony Mann film, The Tall Target.  Any ideas on these two quests would

be great.



Thank you very much.    Dave ArtsGet more from the Web.  FREE MSN
