Drama 488 U.S. Latiné Theatre and Performance: Finding Media

The Filmfinder search tool is located on the Media & Design Center Homepage. Similar to the advanced catalog search, the Filmfinder helps to limit your search to video found in the MDC collection. The Filmfinder not only facilities searches for works by a specific director or performer, title, year of release or by using keywords but you can search by genre and by what country produced the work.

This tool has the unique function of allowing you to look at items that have recently added to the collection. Just click on the Browse New title tab to see a list of those items amassed in the last week, month or three months.

These websites are free services that search the most popular streaming websites (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and more) to help you find movies and TV shows to screen right away online.
