Noel Bjorndahl's Cinephilia on Display - Links to some of his key pieces.


Noel Bjorndahl (above with daughter Emma), who recently died, was one of Australia's great cinephiles, a walking encyclopaedia of film history and a man who devoted his life to watching, studying and writing about film. Way back in 2026 and 2017 I published a series of short essays written by Noel devoted to some of his favourite films and directors. It was heavily Hollywood oriented but that was by no means the extent of Noel's cinephilia.

Below are some links to just some of the posts. Just click on each name. If you want to read more just put "Bjorndahl" into the search engine box next to the orange B at the top left of any post.
