This is quite a fascinating look at life aboard a US Navy aircraft carrier fighting the Japanese during WWII. Narrated by Robert Taylor, it takes us to the hidden innards of this wooden-decked floating fortress complete with thousands of men, thousands of tonnes of materiel, food, weapons and equipment and it explains how meticulously the ship is run and her operations carried out. Plenty of real action photography as the planes take off and land - not always in the same state - demonstrates just how perilous life aboard these ships could be. It is an unashamedly jingoistic film - made to extol the magnificence of the efforts being made by their service personnel to an audience back home, and at that is effective. Narration is an art in itself, though, and I tired of Taylor's rather mono-tonal storytelling after a while - he needed to speak less and let us watch and listen more. It's creatively intercut with action photography than combined with the flimsiness of the planes, the surging of the seas and, of course, the wartime battle scenes go some way to reminding us just how dangerous their daily lives were. Maybe a bit on the dry side, but given when it was made that's hardly surprising.
Primary is a documentary film about the primary elections between John F. Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey in 1960. Primary is the first documentary to use light equipment in order to follow their subjects in a more intimate filmmaking style. This unconventional way of filming created a new look for documentary films where the camera’s lens was right in the middle of what ever drama was occurring. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with The Film Foundation in 1998.

An atmospheric tribute to the genius of Welsh poet and dramatist Dylan Thomas, using many of the windswept locations where Thomas himself grew up and found his inspiration. The film is hosted/presented by Richard Burton, Thomas's friend, who narrates the story and appears from time to time amidst the Welsh landscape. Burton had already appeared in Douglas Cleverdon's acclaimed BBC radio dramatization of Thomas's 'play for voices' Under Milk Wood in the 1950s and, in the early Seventies, would appear in director Andrew Sinclair's film version as First Voice. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with The Film Foundation and National Screen and Sound Archive of Wales in 2000.

Won the Academy Award for the Best Documentary Short of 1954. The subject deals with the children at The Royal School for the Deaf in Margate, Kent. The hearing-handicapped children are shown painstakingly learning what words are through exercises and games, practicing lip-reading and finally speech. Richard Burton's calm and sometimes-poetic narration adds to the heartwarming cheerfulness and courage of the children. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with British Film Institute in 2005.
