	1987 Black Maria Film + Video Festival Essay
		Films are different in that the image of a donkey in a film does carry with it the direct and overt denotative message: "here is a four legged animal with long ears." But it is the connotative (and often arbitrary) meaning of visual images which makes films interesting.
		If a film is seen as communicating through visual symbols which derive their meaning at least partly from the viewer's cultural values or from other films the viewer has seen, then the viewer must be involved in the construction of that meaning.
		If the average film viewers, and the 67% of the population who admit to pollsters that they get most of their news information from TV news,.were to fully recognize that the images in film and video are not transparent and objective records of reality, it would be an important start toward a visually literate society.

		FILM BEFORE FILM is a 1987 documentary about man's attempts to create visual movement with still photographs in the eight decades before the invention of film.

		Also featured in the film are invisible ink drawings, and more simple inventions employing optical illusions that man used to add another dimension to still pictures.

		Although accomplished films continued to be made up until the end of the decade, such restrictive policies would ultimately have a severe effect on the industry's creative development.

		Told through the perspective of a young girl, the film portrays the struggles of a young widow who falls in love with her tenant, but cannot express her feelings due to a restrictive social code.

	(WO/1987/001472) FILM VIDEO PLAYER/PRINTER (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		A turntable (70) serves for selectively rotating the film about an optical centerline (13) of the film video player/printer, to provide for the display of the film image in the normal viewing orientation and to provide for a print corresponding to the image and format displayed.
		Une table tournante (70) sert à la rotation sélective du film autour d'un axe (13) optique du lecteur/tireuse photographique pour permettre de visualiser l'image du film dans l'orientation d'observation et de permettre l'obtention d'un tirage correspondant à l'image et au format visualisé.
		Le film étant tourné autour de l'axe optique et le rapport des côtés d'un réticule vertical (24a) étant l'inverse du rapport des côtés d'un réticule horizontal (24b), on obtient un tirage optique (21) sans qu'il soit nécessaire de composer ou d'agrandir l'image pour compenser toute rotation du film en vue du tirage.

	Apple - Pro/Film - Walter Murch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		There’s no question but that film — any film — is a kind of visual music: the alternation and development of individual shots being the equivalent of the alternations and development of phrases in music.
		Certainly film is more visually musical than theater, which mostly depends on the spoken word.
		There’s the visual repetition of reflected images: the film begins and ends with an image seen through water, and there are crucial moments in the story where this reflected imagery comes into play.

		Buddhist Koans abound throughout the film, such as that of meditating on your face before it was born.

		As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first animated feature-length film, we can be grateful for the art of film animation, which brings to the screen such magic and lasting vitality.
		We can also be grateful for the contribution that animation has made to producing so many family films during the last half-century -- films embodying the fundamental values of good over evil, courage, and decency that Americans so cherish.
		Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim that during the week beginning July 16, 1987, marking the 50th anniversary of feature film animation, the people of the United States are encouraged to observe this historic milestone in our Nation's artistic history with appropriate ceremonies, programs, and activities.

	Hamburger Hill (1987) - Channel 4 Film review
		While films like Apocalypse Now and Platoon used the Vietnam war as a metaphor for the human condition, Hamburger Hill unpretentiously tries to convey the horror of war through gritty realism.
		It's a surprisingly refreshing, if limiting, technique, depicting a succession of battle scenes involving a diminishing troop of soldiers as they desperately try to further their advance, for no other reason than that is what they have been ordered to do.
		This is a film about the futility of war expressed in the simplest terms.

	MMI Special Report - Mill Valley Film Festival 1987 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Among the more intriguing entries at the Mill Valley Film Festival this year is Antony Thomas' excellent documentary "Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done." Originally intended as a "Frontline" special last May, the film focuses on the significant relationship between Christian fundamentalists and right-wing politicians.
		Thomas' film provides a rich, detailed investigation of his controversial subjects, and his soft-spoken interviewing style clearly soothes the fundamentalists into revealing themselves in ways they never would if his approach were more combative.
		The film gets considerable mileage out of situations which do not ordinarily lend themselves to comedy.
