Hello, this is Jesse (a filmmaker with New Day Films). Just joined the list -- many thanks to VRT crew at the ALA conference.
These film lists got me thinking....

How about:
Wild Strawberries
Away from Her
Umberto D
Still Doing it (a New Day documentary)
Harold and Maude (already mentioned by one of my favorite films!)
The Queen

Hi all

Yeah, it's Friday and I'm fried. I'm amusing myself by putting together a
videography of features that feature old folk (no cracks from any of you,
either)as central characters. Here's what I've come up with so
far...surprised that I can't come up with more:

Remember: I really only want titles where elderly (aged, senior, etc etc)
person(s) is a central and/or plot-driving figure.

Cheers...

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
