Tips for Searching Filmfinder

Searching
Filmfinder was developed to allow patrons to search for information on films in ways that they are used to and are comfortable with. Like any other resource it is often helpful to know what the designers intended. Below are some tips to familiarize you with the Filmfinder and make your searches more effective.

You may search by any of the fields on the form by themselves or in conjunction with other fields. The more fields you use to search, the more likely a direct match will be.
To browse films by genre or place of origin select only the genre or origin fields. You can also review the list of genres, origins and directors with links to respective filmographies. This will give all the films matching your search parameter.
To clear the search form completely click on the New search link located just above the search form.
If you are searching for films on a specific subject that does not appear in the genre list enter the subject into the description field.

Conventions
Below is a description of some vocabulary and conventions used in the resource.

Dates are listed as four digit years. If we were unable to find an exact year a 'u' or '?' has been used to replace the year, decade or century in question.
Run times are in minutes unless otherwise indicated.

For holdings, call numbers and availability follow the format links.
