‘Jurassic,’ ‘Fair Lady’ are golden

The Jurassic Age has entered the Golden Age of film.

Some of the most thrilling, frightening and groundbreaking movies in the history of cinema are set to be immortalized within The National Film Registry.

“Jurassic Park” (1993) “The Shining” (1980) and “Brokeback Mountain” (2005) are among the 25 movies that are being added to the registry this year. The classic 1964 musical “My Fair Lady,” too, will be preserved, as will the beloved 1950 animated flick “Cinderella.”

“These cinematic treasures must be protected because they document our history, culture, hopes and dreams,” Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden said in a statement. The registry, now in its 30th year, chooses 25 new films for preservation each year. It now features 750 movies.

Other additions include 1940’s “Rebecca,” and a 29-second silent movie, “Something Good — Negro Kiss,” possibly the earliest instance of intimacy between black actors captured on screen.
