Films and TV Commercials

Very few references have been made to films and TV commercials on this site. This section may be extended in future and suggestions of films, works of reference and any other relevant information will be gratefully received.  

Television commercials have not featured in these pages even although a small proportion of these also use semi-subliminal techniques they are time consuming to collect. If anyone has copies of old commercials that they suspect contain semi-subliminal elements the author would be interested in hearing from them.
