101 Eesti filmi (Tristan Priimägi)
Favs/dislikes: 3:0. Filmikriitik Tristan Priimägi on valinud nende kaante vahele 101 Eesti filmi, mis annavad meie rohkem kui saja-aastasest filmiloost värvika läbilõike. Raamat aitab lugejal tõlgendada neid filme ajalises kontekstis, toob võrdlusi üleilmsete tähtteoste ja suundumustega, tunnustab arengut, uudseid mõtteid ja filmitehnilisi võtteid, puistab fakte ja põnevaid kaadritaguseid lugusid, selgitab seosid ja viskab vihjeid, intrigeerib edasi mõtlema ja vanu filme uue pilguga uuesti vaatama. Raamatu filmiregistrist võib leida peaaegu 500 pealkirja ja isikunimede registrist ligi 800 nime. Films missing from IMDb: 19. Talupojad 76. Esteetilistel põhjustel 79. Isamaa ilu 81. Vali kord 93.

Early Women Filmmakers 1911-1940 (BFI)
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. More women worked in film during its first two decades than at any time since. Unfortunately, many early women filmmakers have been largely written out of film history, their contributions undervalued. This necessary and timely collection highlights the work of 9 of early cinema’s most innovative and influential women directors, re-writing and celebrating their rightful place in film history. International in scope, this groundbreaking collection features over 10 hours of material, comprised of 22 films spanning 1911-1940, including many rare titles not widely available until now. Directors include Mabel Normand, Alice Guy Blaché, Lois Weber, Dorothy Davenport, Germaine Dulac, Olga Preobrazhenskaya, Dorothy Arzner and Mary Ellen Bute. These women were technically and stylistically innovative, pushing the boundaries of narrative, aesthetics, and genre. Going back to the beginning of cinema, this collection makes visible the tremendous directorial contributions women made. -
By Brakhage: An Anthology, Volumes One and Two (Criterion Collection)
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. Working outside the mainstream, the wildly prolific, visionary Stan Brakhage made more than 350 films over a half century. Challenging all taboos in his exploration of “birth, sex, death, and the search for God,” he turned his camera on explicit lovemaking, childbirth, even autopsy. Many of his most famous works pursue the nature of vision itself and transcend the act of filming. Some, including the legendary Mothlight, were created without using a camera at all, as he pioneered the art of making images directly on film, by drawing, painting, and scratching. With these two volumes, we present the definitive Brakhage collection—fifty-six of his works, from across his career, in high-definition digital transfers. -
