	To-do list for The KLF films:	edit · history · watch · refresh
As A Placeholder: A brief synopsis of each film, like this, which it would seem our own Dr Stuey wrote. I've asked him if we can reuse those or if he'd weave some new magic and write some new synopses for us. Resource for Rites of Mu: http://www.libraryofmu.org/display-resource.php?id=384 User:Kingboyk really needs a copy of Waiting (and the KLF mailing list's Chipping Norton rave vid/DVD which he missed); he can't write about the film without having seen it! Write an encyclopaedic, summary lead section.

[edit] So...

Do we want to document all four films here, in sections, or do they need seperate articles? Or, should we start with one article and split if it gets too big? (Which it probably won't, there's not much verifiable/citeable material out there I think).

We will of course need a section for each film, some screencaps, some analayis of content and context, and some references. --kingboyk 01:51, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

I think that there will end up being at least as much written for each film as there is at The "What Time Is Love?" Story (and in the case of The White Room, considerably more), which would mean they'd qualify for separate articles. But this is speculation at the moment. We can build them up here and then despatch them off on their own if and when they qualify?

Another thought: is there anything that needs to be said about The KLF's film work in general? If there's a lot to say, it could go here, but if not, maybe just a mention in The KLF article? --Vinoir 07:38, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure yet, I think it's a case of "wait and see". Too bad neither of us have seen Waiting though! Perhaps if we beg someone else will offer up a digital copy :-) --kingboyk 07:40, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Moved singles thread to Category talk:The KLF. --kingboyk 19:16, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

I am quite sure "1991: The Work" is a authentic videocompilation. It's a promo VHS, a collection of musicvideos. First video is America:WTIL? The Work video is included in THIS IS WHAT KLF ARE ABOUT bootlegvideo. It starts with a black screen, white fonts "KLF COMMUNICATIONS", then follows up with "1991: THE WORK", then America:WTIL? starts. The discography sais:

The KLF: The Work

 [1991] promotional compilation video

  VHS:     1991 UK (KLF Communications; KLF VT 91) [promo]

Yes, I remember now... the thing is, though, is it of any significance to non-fans? --kingboyk 11:10, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
