The British Film Catalogue
''The British Film Catalogue'' is a reference book compiled by Denis Gifford (1927–2000) listing every film made in Britain, including feature films, shorts, information films and student films. For each of more than 14,000 consecutively numbered chronological title entries, information listed includes major credits (director, producer, writer, original author), production company, distributor, actors and actresses, role names, running time, censors’ certificate, genre and a brief plot. It has an alphabetical index cross-referencing each title to its chronological number. There existed no central register or other complete archive of films made in the UK, and Gifford sought to address this with the Catalogue. The 2000 edition of the work, written by Gifford but published shortly after his death, was a two-volume reference work, separating fiction (1895-1994) and non-fiction (1888-1994). The 1973 and 1986 editions were published as single volumes. In order to compile the firs ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
