New Zealand Film 1912-1996 By Helen Martin & Sam Edwards

Oxford New Zealand Film 1912-1996 is an important new reference work that provides the first comprehensive overview of New Zealand feature films. Starting in 1912 with the fictional narratives of George Melies, it surveys the development of a remarkable film industry that gained distinct momentum from the late 1970s onwards and includes such international successes as The Piano and Once were Warriors.

The book gives a succinct summary of every New Zealand feature film. The films are arranged chronologically, and each entry is accompanied by at least one still or related image. Each film's production information, crew and cast credits are systematically recorded, followed by a brief synopsis and critical comment. Information on the film's history and critical and popular reception is also included where appropriate.

New Zealand Film 1912-1996 is an invaluable resource that will delight and inform.
