More Victor Perkins Video Interviews Online from Saarbruecken






Film Studies For Free very excitedly learnt of the posting of five more fascinating and hugely insightful extracts from the marvellous recorded interview with legendary film scholar V.F. Perkins which took place at the Kino 8 1/2 in Saarbrücken, Germany, and was filmed by Media Art and Design Studiengang. They are available online here.

If you missed the earlier seven interview extracts you can find them in one handy place (and, let's say it: FSFF is one very handy place!) here.

What more need FSFF say, than "Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy, and enjoy"!
