Subseries IV.1: General, 1927-1999
- Scope and content:
-
Photographs, contact sheets, and negatives held in this subseries are more general in nature. Images in regards to Cinema 16 events and numerous film festivals are held here. Individuals include prominent filmmakers, such as Werner Herzog, Alfred Hitchcock and the Maysles, as well as individuals known as much for their screen time as their behind-the-camera work, for example Charlie Chaplin and Jack Nicholson. There are also photographs from certain Cinema 16 events, for example the "Poetry and the Film" Symposium that featured photographs of writers such as Dylan Thomas and Arthur Miller. Also of interest are photographs from the 1968 filmmakers strike at Cannes in which Jean-Luc Godard, Luis Malle, François Truffaut, Roman Polanski, and other major directors pulled out their films in solidarity with the student and labor uprisings occurring all over the country. Photographs listed under Vogel's VIP term include notable individuals such as John and Yoko Lennon, Salvador Dali, and Alfred Hitchcock.
