Knoxville’s Tennessee Archive of Moving Image and Sound has released Picturing the Smokies, an hour-long DVD compilation of home movies of the Great Smoky Mountains. The films and accompanying soundtrack are taken from TAMIS’s extensive collection of East Tennessee materials.

“The movie isn’t meant to be a comprehensive history,” said TAMIS’s Louisa Trott. “It’s a compilation of the most interesting footage in our collection, a portrait of the park as told through the lens of home movie makers.”
