This is going to be a great series! Thank you for sharing these treasures. The clarity in these prints is amazing!
Bravo! Looking forward to it. Thanks MoMA for organising this!
Thank you for this. It would be interesting to see MOMA work with other archives and develop a History of Film and a History of Television video series that can be used in schools and online.
Wonderful to see how people lived, what they considered important and how they captured it to share. Thank you for the effort to put these together.
This looks interesting, especially the early 16mm films that show every day life back then. Thanks for all your hard work.
Thanks for this great project! :)
