I'm so proud of how far we have come over the past 10 years with Lantern & the Media History Digital Library. Help us go even further over the next decade. If you like what we do, and you can afford a donation, please contribute to our birthday fundraiser: lantern.mediahist.org/lantern10

I am grateful and humbled that my book, INK-STAINED HOLLYWOOD, has received the Richard Wall Memorial Award Special Jury Prize from the Theatre Library Association. Thank you University of California Press, UW-Madison L&S, and all who supported me in the research and writing. tla-online.org/join-us-for-th…

I’ve seen “Young Man with a Horn”—my favorite movie—dozens of times. I thought I knew everything there was to know about it, then discovered the Media History Digital Library. See what I discovered in my deep dive. Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research Eric Hoyt WIHistoricalSociety UW-Madison Comm Arts onwisconsin.uwalumni.com/a-media-histor…

Thanks Eric Hoyt for bringing search.projectarclight.org to my attention! Here's #UrsulaParrott's press mentions from the Media History Digital Library in a handy visual. Such a useful, fast way to snapshot media attention. #digitalhumanities #filmtwitter #filmhistory #Hollywood

The work David leaves behind was paradigm-shifting, brain-rebalancing, Earth-spanning—definitive. But what first attracted me to his writing was how intrinsically playful it was: there was always another question to ask, another place to poke and prod, another movie to screen.

I first came to know David Bordwell, the groundbreaking & transformative film historian, from taking film classes in college. When I got a job in Madison, I came to know David Bordwell, the person. He was so welcoming, kind, & supportive. I loved his passion, energy & wit. (1/2)

We discovered that we shared a love of action movies, and we went out to catch matinees of Liam Neeson & Jason Statham. We kept swapping emails with recommendations until the end. You were such an important presence, David, to me and so many others. Your absence is profound.(2/2)

"These movies aren't going to watch themselves." One of my favorite David Bordwell lines. All the more so because it was in reference to a group of B-rate January and February released action thrillers, as we made plans to see them.

David Bordwell was one of the most important leaders in the history of Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research. I wrote a blog post reflecting on this part of his legacy, including his time as Director, his and Kristin Thompson's donation of their archives, and his inspiring example. wcftr.commarts.wisc.edu/index.php/2024…

Alvin Boretz is not a household name, but it should be. He wrote for radio, TV, film & theatre. He was tenacious & told powerful stories that challenged postwar norms. The Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research is honored to care for his collection & share this online collection. avdh.commarts.wisc.edu/s/boretz/page/…

David Bordwell published 20 books over his game-changing career. Remarkably, none of them were his 1974 dissertation, "French Impressionist Cinema." With the blessing of Kristin Thompson, we have digitized & added this work to Media History Digital Library & Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research. lantern.mediahist.org

Lantern has grown in popularity. The site now receives 1,000-2,000 queries per minute. Only downside is that our Media History Digital Library servers can get overloaded, with some requests lagging or timing out. Rest assured, we are adding capacity. Keep those film,TV & radio searches coming!
