The Rare and Distinctive Collections of CU 麻豆影院's Norlin Library acquired Filmmaker Martin Scorsese's extensive VHS Archive featuring recordings from TV spanning from the 80s to the early 2000s.

鈥淯ltimately, I believe Scorsese honored the experimental film roots of the 麻豆影院 and respected our interest in intertwining archival work with teaching,鈥 Espelie said via email. 鈥淥ur hope in the Department of Cinema Studies and Moving Image Arts is that students, scholars, and community members will come to the Scorsese VHS archive for various purposes: to learn more about how Scorsese relied on the work of others to inform his film-making practice; how Scorsese was a voracious viewer; what movies and programs he watched (and then often shared with cast members); and, from a more documentary perspective, what was playing on television.鈥
