British Poetry Magazines 1914-2000: A History and Bibliography of 'Little
Magazines', compiled by David Miller and Richard Price (The British Library
and Oak Knoll Press, 2006), has this as entry E615 (p.302):
Poem Film Film Poem / edited by Nicholas Baumfield and Peter Todd. London,
[No. 1] (1997)-.
"Note: [No. 1] was printed in an edition of 50 copies, and is also No. 2 of
the Poem Film Society Newsletter. No. 3 (1998) is also No. 5 of the South
London Poem Film Society Newsletter. A special unnumbered issue, Film Poems,
also constitutes the notes for a British Film Institute touring programme."
Anyone near the British Library or, when open again in June, the Poetry
Library, could check some of these out.
I think I saw at least a version of the BFI touring programme. Lots of
Margaret Tait. And a mixture of 'about poetry' (or poets) and 'poetic' film
in the sense of film structured in a way that is analogous to lyric poetry
rather than to short story or novel.
Programme notes can be found here, together with some other links:
