This is a set of reference books that indexes movie reviews in various magazines from 1882-1985. Simply look up the title of the movie and you will find a list of citations to reviews. The SCC Library subscribes to some of the magazines, and we can request the others through Interlibrary Loan.

This set of books indexes film reviews that appeared in the New York Times from 1913-1968 with a gap from 1939-1948. The reviews are arranged by year, so you must first find out the year the movie was released before searching for reviews.
