Site Bibiliography
With the amount of articles, reviews, and essays published on Deep Focus Review, a small library of resources are used. The texts include film history, film theory, and biographical resources, even reaching to online resources, DVD extras, and other media. I've attempted to compile a list of the most commonly used texts below.
If you have any questions regarding the bibliography, feel free to email me.
