Winona, it really depends on what movie you wanna analyze. Some 
movies are extremely visual, and the descriptions are really 
necessary. But I've found that I've been able to watch a good 
many movies in nondescriptive format and have quite enjoyed them. 
The ones with a lot of diagloue are basically like audiobooks 
read by multiple people with sound effects. My point is, and I 
know I'll get flack for this, that depending on the movie, you 
may not need a descriptive video.

There os also

www.solo-dx.com

You can buy a descriptive track to synchronize with the movie. I 
got The Hunger Games descriptive track as apart of a free trial, 
and I was able to watch that movie. It synced perfectly, as long 
as I followed the instructions.

 Hi Winona,
 First of all, your English assignment sounds very interesting. 
Archetypes
 and Jungian psychology in general is so fascinating. I've read 
different
 stories from Women who Run with the Wolves and it's so complex 
and helpful
 in sorting out issues in people's lives.
 Here are some resources I've found.

 Hi ,

 I am doing a project for an English assignment and my teacher 
wants us to
 watch a movie and analyze it. (Pick out the different archetypes 
such as
 hero; clown; wise old man; and etc.)

 I found a link about descriptive videos.

 https://nfb.org/images/nfb/publications/fr/fr31/4/fr310412.htm

 Where can I find descriptive videos? Does the National Library 
Service
 (NLS) carry them?

 Thanks,
 Winona
