Harvard Film Archive Collections

Over the past few weeks new audio files were added to our Visiting Directors Audio Collection finding aids, from 2008 and 2009.  You can listen to audio recorded before and after our screenings, including well-researched introductions and discussions between visiting filmmakers, scholars, and our curator and programmer.  All audio is available to the public, you just need to click on the links and listen via realaudio.
