Film CD

[Genevra Gerhart]

Ladies and gentlemen!

Do yourselves favor and order the new cd-rom data-base on Thaw cinema (in
Russian for Windows) from REES/University of Pittsburgh for a mere $20.  (It
was produced with support from NCEEER and Ford, so the money beyond cost
will go towards the production of another CD-rom database, this one on early
Russian cinema, the second of ten in the series _Anthology of Russian
Cinema_.)

The CD, "Thaw Cinema", includes entries on over 300 feature films of the
period, with 2000 illustrations and photographs, 70 production sketches, 17
video fragments, 130 cinema posters, excerpts from the memoirs from of the
film crew, periodical reviews of the period, and a comprehensive overview
article by Evgenii Margolit of NII Kinoiskusstvo (Moscow).  It was produced
by Marina Trush, TEFI-awardee for her documentary work with Naum Kleiman
(_Master's Home_ on Sergei Eisenstein).  It should be required (and
acquired) by anyone who knows Russian and is at all interested in Russian
film or its history.

 You can write to Zsofia McMullan <zsofiam at ucis.pitt.edu>, or call her at
412-648-8716 for further information.

The CD has tons of information, and the prospect of lowering the incidence
of error by a large margin.
