<title>International film index 1895-1990 / edited by Alan Goble.</title>
<description>&amp;quot;Contents: v. 1, Film titles; v. 2, Directors' filmography and indexes. Attempts to provide 'a comprehensive index to films by title and director on a worldwide basis.'--Pref. Vol. 1 lists some 232,000 'master' titles and alternate titles representing 177,000 films of all types--full-length, short, documentary, animated, serial, made for television--of the silent and sound eras. Master title entries give year of release, director(s), other credits (where director has not been established), type of film, country of origin, alternative titles. Filmographies for 25,000 directors in v. 2 show directing credits chronologically (codirecting and uncredited contributions are usually omitted here, although they are noted under film titles in v. 1). Type of film is indicated, as are the director's nationality and (where determined) dates. Indexes of directors by country and animated film directors. Select bibliography of sources consulted.&amp;quot; (Balay, &lt;em&gt;Guide to reference books&lt;/em&gt;, 11th ed, 1996)</description>
