Indian cinema archive on a website now

[icernet-admin at listserv.cddc.vt.edu]

The National Film Archive of India has finally gathered its huge collection
of films and archival material in a nutshell through their newly-launched
website - nfaipune.nic.in. The website has an array of easy-to-access
features like visual pop-ups of information on special film screenings,
film circle activities, forthcoming film festivals, film appreciation
course, NFAI library, auditorium facilities and expert opinions among
others.

However, the most important feature is the search engine, which can help
get detailed information of any film, including details of the director,
cast, crew and the number of awards won by it all over the world by just
entering either the film title, year, language or film director's name. And
the censor records dating back to the 1920s.
