On a weekly basis, the Melbourne Cinémathèque screens films of historical, aesthetic and/or cultural significance that otherwise would not receive a public screening.

In order to provide a critical context for these screenings, "annotations" on films have traditionally been published in one form or another. Since April 2000, "CTEQ Annotations on Film" have been published electronically in Senses of Cinema and in hard copy for
those without Internet access. The purpose of these annotations is to encourage appreciation of a film by highlighting details of its history, providing a "reading" of its aesthetic and so on.

 Senses of Cinema and CTEQ Annotations on Film invite writers to contribute notes on the films listed below. Articles should follow the guidelines set out by Senses of Cinema and should be 800–1000 words in length. We ask that you reply to this invitation with an expression of interest in a film that you would like to write on as soon as possible. Email Adrian Danks at [email protected]. We will then match up writers with specific films (as there may be several people interested in one film).

Annotations on the following films will be published in the next issue of Senses of Cinema. The deadline for written material is January 18.
