I don't think they sell videos, but Dierdre and her staff are the
experts on what's good and bad. They also have a festival every year
(January?) at the Film Society of Lincoln Center in NYC and that would
be good to see what they've played.
There's also the National Dance Museum in Saratoga Springs, NY at
http://www.dancemuseum.org/. I'm sure they have an expert there.
