- Synopsis:
You seldom get an opportunity to view a finer collection of documentaries, which deal with as fascinating a subject as the one on this video - "The Significance Of Documentaries." It may well seem like a case of self-exaltation, but one must bear in mind that these films were produced with much painstaking research and effort at a time few people had the interest or opportunity to view these masterpieces. As stated before, all the clips on this video deal in one way or the other with how to select a good documentary film - especially the educational variety for schools. Perhaps the most practical among these is the one that explains in great detail how a movie projector works and offers great tips on how to operate it. The other one (Film Research and Learning), which emphasises the benefits of films in classroom learning, seems to suggest that educational documentaries were not very popular in those days. Yet, the clip offers loads of statistical data and fabulous examples, which are certain to interest movie buffs and historians alike. The Clip titled Photography is bound to evoke a lot of interest with its fascinating contents and tips on career selection. These surely are the best examples of ageless educational films from the 20th century and are certain to enrich and edify even a casual browser. - Studio:
