Oliver Stone´s JFK and Nixon. The Laramie Project (based on a true story, with news clips, awful movie) The Abyss (the aliens´ message near the end) Save the Green Planet Out of the blue, I´d say that in most cases archive- footage is supposed to guarantee some sort of authenticity, but in Jeunet´s Amelie (e.g. Stalin´s speech) Reflections of Evil (the opening sequence is taken from another movie starring Tony Curtis and newly dubbed and the meaning completely changed) and many examples in Monty Python´s Flying Circus (Nixon once more...) it serves rather like raw material to play with. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
