Films For Big And Little People
January 17, 1981 - January 1, 1990
Presented in Association with The Media Center for Children, Inc., New York.
This program was made possible in part by funds from the National Endowment for the Arts and by contributions from: Serious Business Company; Small Change Children's Clothes; Adam B; Oui, Oui; Ms McPhyzz; and Such a Business. The films were selected for this special showcase by the Media Center for Children, Inc., a New York City-based national resource on children's media. As part of the Media Center's ongoing evaluation process, each film was pre-tested with children. Most of the films were made by independent filmmakers, and it is the Media Center's hope that the public will enjoy the diversity of filmmaking styles.
For details, please see film notes.
