abstract:The National Film Registry is the United States National Film Preservation Board's selection of films for preservation in the Library of Congress. The Board, established by the National Film Preservation Act of 1988, was reauthorized by acts of Congress in 1992, 1996, 2005, and again in October 2008.
In 1989, the film was chosen by the U.S. Library of Congress to be preserved in the NationalFilmRegistry for all time, one of only 25 films to be so honored.
