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.

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.
