2006 Film & History Conference

8-12 November 2006
Dolce Conference Center â€" Dallas, TX
www.filmandhistory.org
Deadline: August 15, 2006
AREA: Nature and the Environment in Film and Television Documentaries
Early filmmakers often traveled the globe to introduce audiences to views of
far away places. Niagara Falls and scenes of the Holy Land shared the
screen with the dancing Carmencita and boxers Corbett and Fitzsimmons. Later, the
filmic exploration of the natural world added support to the argument that
movies were educational tools.
