Gene Walz inquires:

"The lowliest genre in all of filmdom--the industrial film. Does anyone know

of any interesting theoretical, critical, and/or descriptive work on these

neglected kinds of films?"

 

 

Several of such films (as well as other kinds of promotional and "social

guidance" films) are on the Voyager CD-ROM EMPHEMERAL FILMS, which include

brief analytical texts.

 

 

It's a hoot!

 

(but with a serious purpose)
