Book Presentation:
Frame by Frame II is a major reference guide on African American film professionals. It recognizes African Americans who have contributed their talents to a film industry that has scarcely recognized them. The editors acknowledge those independents who have rejected Hollywood values and set out on their own paths. This volume builds on the earlier Frame by Frame, which included productions through 1978. In order to assure that the 1978 entries are complete, that year is included in this edition. A compilation of information on more than 3000 films, Frame by Frame II includes listings of films and of black casts, directors, executive producers, film composers, performers, producers, screenwriters, and Oscar-award winners and nominees.

Book Presentation:
A compendium of approximately 3,000 film items. Listed here are films with black themes or subject matter; films featuring substantial participation by Blacks as screenwriters, actors, producers, directors, musicians, and consultants; and films in which Blacks play incidental roles. Productions made between 1978 and 1994 are included. Each entry is categorized by type and fully identified and annotated, with complete cast lists.
