Index of Names

This is an index of names only. Due to the sheer number of films listed and referred to in this guide, it has not been practical to supply an index of film titles. In addition to the directors who have full entries in the text, all other film personnel mentioned in the text are referenced here, as are authors of original novels and so forth. I also include historical or mythical figures who have been depicted in films, if they are themselves mentioned in the text. However, they are not indexed if their names have merely been used as film titles. Similarly, critics quoted in the text are indexed, but where their books are merely listed in the Bibliography, I have excluded them from the Index.
