Screenwriting
Film Archivists @ UCLA
"When Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio were preparing their Howard Hughes biopic "The Aviator," they screened a beautifully restored print of the millionaire moviemaker's 1930 air war classic "Hell's Angels." This clearly inspired what many consider the best part of Scorsese's Oscar- nominated movie.
And it's a sterling example of how the restoration and preservation work at UCLA's Film and Television Archive saves our visual past for increasingly worthwhile modern applications.
Established in 1977 to provide 35mm prints for the university's fabled School of Theater, Film and Television, the archive houses more than 230,000 film and television titles. It's the largest collection at any university in the world and the country's second biggest, after the Library of Congress copyright depository."

Oops, that's "I read Christopher Strong" gingerly. Christopher Guest probably would not hold still.
