    I thought a list of Features, Documentaries, etc. that are available to rent/buy might be nice. Super8Sound has a list like this, but it's lacking, limited to mostly Hollywood mainstream. Offer any additions and comments.

    ONE DAY IN SEPTEMBER
    documentary
    Not entirely shot on super 8, but segments here and there. Provocative, no matter what it's format is.


    YEAR OF THE HORSE
    documentary
    I've read a few articles about this, but can't believe I still haven't seen it yet.

    ...just off the top of my head.

    Also, the original INSOMNIA that came out a few years back - anyone know if the opening is Super 8?

    I was watching GLOBE TREKKER, a PBS documentary series. This episode had the Host traveling to Vietnam. The bulk of it was video, but she did have a super 8 camera, looked like a Canon, and so some of the show was super 8. Man, what a difference.

    But after doing a search on the web, I couldn't find any info on the super 8 aspect of this episode. Like:

    -what stocks were used
    -where was it transferred
    -what kind of color correction was done

    If anyone knows, I'm curious. The footage was so beautiful. It put the video to shame.
