"INTO THE MIND OF JUDY GARLAND."

Between 1963 and 1967, Garland was down on her luck financially, and planned to write a biography. To aide in the process, she made these dictation recordings with a tape recorder provided by Irving “Swifty” Lazar. These tapes are a part of the Judy Garland archive at Columbia University. It wasn’t until Gerald Clarke made use of these recordings for book research in 2000 that they were released.

Night Will Fall

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
