National Film & Sound Archive
This excellent archive, set in a delightful art deco building, preserves Australian moving-picture and sound recordings for posterity. Highlights include the absorbing permanent exhibition Sights + Sounds of a Nation, and 100 years of audio and visual recordings, from Norman Gunston's idiosyncratic interviews to the 1943 Oscar-awarded propaganda flick Kokoda Front Line. There are also temporary exhibitions, talks and film screenings (2pm and 7pm Thursdays, 2pm and 4:30pm weekends plus a 7:30 screening Saturday nights). Teatro Fellini Café serves excellent snacks in the sunny courtyard.
