The collection includes the work of such celebrated directors as: Darren Aronofsky, Ingmar Bergman, Kathryn Bigelow, Danny Boyle, Kenneth Branagh, Jane Campion, Francis Ford Coppola, Sofia Coppola, Ava DuVernay, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Federico Fellini, Jean-Luc Godard, Werner Herzog, Alfred Hitchcock, Agnieszka Holland, Derek Jarman, Stanley Kubrick, David Lean, Baz Luhrmann, Louis Malle, Fernando Meirelles, Christopher Nolan, Christian Petzold, Éric Rohmer, Martin Scorsese, Ridley Scott, Steven Spielberg, Quentin Tarantino, Jacques Tati, Luchino Visconti, Lars von Trier, Margarethe von Trotta, Orson Welles, Billy Wilder, and Wim Wenders.

A  joint initiative between 118ͼ¿â’s JCR and the Library, the collection includes many films and recordings which appear on reading lists, as well as others which are made available for leisure and pleasure use.  In addition to films, some outstanding television series are also held.  The Film Collection comprises overwhelmingly DVDs, along with a small number of videos and audio-only CDs.

All the DVDs (and VHS videos and CDs) may be borrowed by 118ͼ¿â students and staff.  The loan period for films and other audio-visual resources is three days for all current members of 118ͼ¿â; loaned items may be renewed.

If you do not have a DVD player, you are welcome to borrow one of four  the Library provides.  Compatible with all modern laptops, the drives may be borrowed from the Library Office, which is open Mondays to Fridays, 9 am till 5 pm.
