Notes<br />
[1] A famous example is ”<strong>Danmark</strong>”, 1935,<br />
directed by Poul Henningsen. The film was<br />
sponsored by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,<br />
and Poul Henningsen was allowed a free hand<br />
in the film production. See more: www.dfi.<br />
<strong>dk</strong>, <strong>Danmark</strong>s Nationalfilmografi, search for<br />
“<strong>Danmark</strong>” (The webpage for The Danish Film<br />
Institute will be changed in Spring 2009, and<br />
therefore exact addresses cannot be given).<br />
[2] Negatives and reversal films are both<br />
originals. Negatives give inverse images<br />
after development, where reversal films are<br />
developed to a positive image. Se more about<br />
reversal techniques at http://en.wikipedia.<br />
