FILM ARCHIVE: ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES (Library ref no. FAC01)
The IAC film library - on the 8mm, Super 8, 9.5mm and 16mm guages - has been stored in
the East Anglian Film Archive for several years. The collection comprises more than
1300 items with the earliest films dating from the 1920s.
Seventy-two of these films are available to view on-line as part of the
EAFA website.
For a fuller appreciation, however, we know that presentation on a big screen is the
best option, especially for club shows. This is one of several selections of the films.
| 1. | WAXEN WEDDING (1970) Cine Club d'Orleans
A sardonic thriller from a leading French club. It has an imaginative script and both the acting and settings lift it above many group films of the time. |

|
|
| 2. | LOOK AT ME (1982) Finchley Cine Club A comedy from one of Britain's most consistently successful clubs, founded in 1930. |

| 3. | RIGOR MORTIS (1963) Jesus College Film Society of Oxford Meticulous planning and execution will result in the perfect murder. There's just one small detail... |

| 4. | EIGHT O'CLOCK SPECIAL (1962) Alan Sidi and John Rose A commuter's trip from Leeds to Bradford at a speed rarely experienced on our railway system! Perfect choice of music. |
