If you are a fan of the TV series, you will enjoy this film. If you haven't seen the series, you may be a little confused. I am not sure if the film is meant to be a true representation of the show. It does not attempt to be, and the directors are not trying to make the series relevant to the present day. It is meant to be a period piece. The filmmakers, actors and writers do a very good job of presenting the history of the library. I would say that the film is more of a documentary than a documentary. It is an historical document. I am sure that the producers of this film would like to present the series as a true history. It is not. They are not historians. They are filmmakers. I think that this film is a good documentary and I would recommend it to anyone interested in the history of the library.

The documentary is good, but the way it is edited and the way the interviews are done can be a bit hard to follow. It does have a lot of information that can be very useful, but it is not always clear what is being said. The information is good, but it is hard to follow at times. I liked the way the interviews were done, but it was not always clear what they were saying. I would say that this is a good documentary, but I think that it could have been a lot better. I think that it is good, but it is not great.

This is a wonderful documentary about the changing face of the public library. It's a great example of how a new technology can change a library, and how technology is a key element of a library's success. I've always been a big fan of public libraries, and this film is a great showcase for the strengths and weaknesses of public libraries. The main problem I have with this documentary is that it's too long. The film covers a lot of ground, and the length of the interviews is a bit too much. I would have liked to have seen more interviews with library workers, as the story of the library is one that should be told in more depth. The interviews with the library workers are good, but they're a bit too long. In the end, the film is a great showcase for public libraries, and a great example of how technology can change a library.

I don't think I've ever seen a documentary as long as this one. It covers a wide range of topics and doesn't skip a beat. Some of the interviews are really interesting, some of them are just flat out fascinating. The overall theme of the film is how we should treat our digital libraries, and I think it's a great message. I'm not sure I completely agree with everything that was said, but overall I think the message was clear. If you're a library user, you should check it out. It's well worth your time.

This is a well made documentary, however, it is also a very long film. There are some great images, but I felt it dragged on for too long. I think the film could have been cut in half. I thought the main character was a little too dramatic. I thought the main focus was too much on the library and not enough on the city of New York. I think this is a film that people should see and think about.

This film is not for everyone, and is not for everyone. It is very long and has many scenes that could have been cut. I found the documentary a bit slow. I think it would have been better if it had been shorter. It does not do justice to the great work of the New York Public Library and the people who were involved in it. It is a good story and worth seeing, but it does not make a great film.

If you're looking for a thorough, compelling look at the struggles of the American Library Association, this is it. I'm sure the director's and producer's own personal experiences were the inspiration for the film, but it's an interesting look at the collective, individual, and sometimes contradictory nature of libraries, and the library community in general. The film is extremely well-shot and produced, and it was a pleasure to see the authors of the books featured. It was interesting to see how the opinions of the people featured varied from person to person. The film also showed how libraries are not monolithic, but are in fact diverse, and the diversity of opinions that come with the different types of library. The film is also very informative and insightful, and the commentary was both well-written and well-executed. I think the directors did a very good job of presenting the stories of the individual authors, and I think that the film is worth seeing.

The documentary is pretty good. The problem is that it is very predictable. The actors are mostly unknowns, and it is hard to tell who is who. I think the only person I recognized was the woman who played the narrator, but even that was pretty much a given. The story is pretty much a compilation of the various films that have been shown in the library. The first part is mostly a collection of interviews with people who have been in the library and who have seen the films. The second part is more about the people who have seen the films. I was surprised to see that the woman who played the narrator had never seen a film before. That is one of the things that makes the documentary interesting. But I am not sure if it is a good thing.

This is a very good documentary. It is very interesting to watch the history of the library and how it was constructed. It is also interesting to see the evolution of the library. The first part of the movie was a little bit slow, but it quickly picked up speed and I was very impressed. The second part was also very good, as well as the third. The film was very informative, and I really enjoyed the interviews with the people who were involved with the library. The fourth and fifth parts of the film were also very good, but the sixth was a little bit too slow for me. The final part of the film was also very good, as well as the final part of the film.

This documentary is not about the library, but about the people who work there. The documentary is mostly about the people who work in the library. It is a fascinating look at the library's work, and what it does to people. The documentary is interesting and well-made. I recommend it.

A collection of the best of the New York Public Library's collection of 4,500 books, films, and other media. The movie has a very well written script, and is well paced. The movie has a good mixture of great documentaries and interviews. It also has some nice scenes of the New York Public Library. I especially liked the interviews with the staff of the Library. The movie is a great introduction to the Library. I recommend it to anyone who loves documentaries.

The Library is a fascinating documentary that looks at the impact that New York City libraries have on their communities. The movie is divided into three sections. The first is a timeline of the New York Public Library system's history. The second section is a look at the library's current work and the third section looks at the library's most recent expansion plans. The first section is very informative and provides some great historical background information. The second section focuses on the library's current work and the third section looks at the library's most recent expansion plans. The third section is very interesting and gives a lot of background information about the library's expansion plans. The library is definitely a great institution and should be looked at more in the future. I think that this documentary is a must-see for anyone interested in the library. I give it a 7/10.

This documentary takes a look at the life of the legendary Francis A. Coppola and how he has shaped the world of film and film making. This documentary covers a lot of ground, from the early days of the Coppola's, to his career as a director and the famous "B" movies. This documentary is very interesting and informative. There is a lot of great information and interviews with people who have worked with Francis and how they felt about him. I think the film did a great job at giving a sense of how he became famous and what he was like as a person. I think it also covered his philosophy and how he wanted to be a director. I think the film does a great job at showing his work and how he worked with his peers. This is definitely a great documentary. I think it's a great documentary that you should watch. I give it a 7/10.

This documentary is a great overview of the efforts of the New York Public Library to digitize their collection of the books of the great American writer W. Somerset Maugham. The documentary is well done and does a great job of explaining the project. It is very informative and informative it is. I think the best part of the documentary is the introduction of the "new" collection of Maugham's books. The library did a great job of getting the books digitized and this is what the documentary was about. The documentary was very well done and informative. I was very impressed with the work that was done and it was well worth watching. I would recommend this documentary to anyone who wants to learn more about the work of Maugham. 7/10

The film is about the New York Public Library, and the new book by Dr. Tom Deutsch, "The Meaning of Libraries", which I've just read. The film is an interesting look at the new book, and it's a nice addition to the library experience. I liked the fact that the film didn't try to explain the book, but just showed the book. It's also a good addition to the library experience. The film is worth seeing, and I would recommend it.

I just watched this on cable, and I must say it's a very good documentary. The story is fascinating, and it makes you feel like you are in the library. The people interviewed are also very interesting, and I would like to see more documentaries like this one. The overall feel of the film is very realistic. It is a bit depressing at times, but it is a very good film. I would definitely recommend this film to anyone who wants to know more about the world of public libraries.

A great and very entertaining documentary about the New York Public Library. The director was able to capture the feeling of the library itself and the library staff. It is a very inspiring documentary and a great way to learn about the library. The film has a very powerful and touching message about library's. It also gives you a great look into the life of the library staff. The film has a great look into the library, the staff, the building, the staff and the patrons. The film is well shot and edited. The film is well done and it is well worth seeing.

I love the New York Public Library. I like the book, and I like the movie. The movie is a good adaptation. I would say that it's a good movie, but not a great movie. It has it's problems. The movie does a good job of portraying the culture of the library. The movie is well shot and the acting is great. The movie is a good movie. It's worth seeing.

I was lucky enough to see this at the Toronto International Film Festival. The Library is a wonderful institution, and I would love to see this film again. It's not a documentary, but a dramatization of the events of the Library's founding. The film is about a group of librarians who are involved in a great deal of work. They have a great sense of humor, and are quite witty and intelligent. The film is about their work, and how they have been able to keep a great library and library education going. It's also about the efforts of the Library's founding father, and the Library's first director, George Washington Carver. The film is well-paced and entertaining, and has some great interviews with people who were involved in the Library's founding. I would recommend this film to anyone who is interested in libraries and libraries. It's a great film, and I look forward to seeing it again.

I've always been a big fan of the NYPL and the people who work there. I was really excited to see this documentary and was not disappointed. I've been a big fan of the NYPL for years and this documentary really showed me what it is like to work there. It's a really great job and the people who work there are really good people. The documentary is very informative and shows a lot of the things that are going on. It also shows the "different" things that are going on in the library. I really liked the way the documentary was put together. It was very interesting and I really enjoyed the way that it was put together. I think it's a great documentary and I recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about the NYPL.

I have just finished watching the documentary "The New York Public Library: The Unauthorized Story of the World's Most Powerful Library" and I can say that this film is definitely worth your time. The documentary follows the rise and fall of the NYPL and its predecessor, the New York Public Library, and the library's efforts to preserve the world's libraries, and the libraries' attempts to overcome the library's own bureaucratic and bureaucratic obstacles. I found the documentary to be very informative, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in libraries, libraries, or libraries-the documentary is a must see. The documentary covers many important subjects such as the New York Public Library's founding, its relationship with the city, the library's history, its present, and its future. The documentary also touches on the library's role in the preservation of American culture, and its efforts to keep the American Library Association (ALA) in good standing. I think the documentary is an excellent resource for anyone who is interested in libraries, libraries, or libraries-the documentary is a must see!

This is a pretty good documentary about the relationship between the public library and the people who use it. I'm not sure what the documentary is about, but it's a good one. It's a bit dated, but the message is still good. It's a little slow in the beginning, but it picks up. I liked the way the film went from showing the public library in New York to showing the public library in Pittsburgh. It was a nice change. The movie is kind of boring, but I think it's important to show the public library as it is now. The people who use it are the ones who are making it. I think that's what's important. The movie isn't as well made as the documentary, but it's still a good documentary.

I am a huge fan of the New York Public Library and I was looking forward to this documentary. I was very pleasantly surprised. The documentary is very informative and gives a lot of information on the library's history. It also shows some of the programs that are offered. I would have liked to have seen more of the other programs that are offered. For example, the women's studies program is very important to the library. I also would have liked to see more of the art and history programs offered. I am very glad that the museum director was in the documentary and I hope to see more of her in future documentaries. Overall, this is a great documentary and I would recommend it to anyone.
