1.Cinema Europe - The Other Hollywood starring: Kenneth Branagh, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Claude Autant-Lara, Michael Balcon, Charles Bennett directed by: Dan Carter, David Gill, Kevin Brownlow, Michael Winterbottom March 15, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $80.98
I just saw the documentary Cinema Europe: The Other Hollywood. It should appeal to anyone interested in film history, especially the silent era. Its goal is to document the birth of cinema in Europe and its development all the way to the early years of the sound film - in just 6 hours! Six hours is way to short for such an endeavor but the filmmakers manage to pack amazing amount of information in to these six hours, so much in fact that one is left with the desire to see it immediately again. The film is in six parts. The first covering the birth of cinema in Europe, the second one is about the Swedish silent film industry, the third one about the German Masters, the fourth one about France, the fifth one about Britain and the last one about the death of silent ...

3.Civilisation starring: Kenneth Clark, Ian Richardson, Patrick Stewart directed by: Michael Gill, Peter Montagnon
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
Kenneth Clark's Civilisation is important because without this format there would not have been Jacob Bronowski's The Ascent of Man, or any of David Attenboroughs nature programs or Carl Sagan's Cosmos. This is the brand that started them all however the subject matter is very different from those science-orientated programs. Clark believed that he could encapsulate the development of European civilization (he does a little bit on America too) through its art. It is a very audacious project and to some extent Clark is making television history by doing something that has never been done before. Throughout the 13 episodes Clark picks an era and discusses the main mood, expressed through art and how it progresses civilization or how civilization advances art. Art history is a feedback system ... Read More
