Les Seigneurs de la forêt est un film documentaire belge de long métrage en cinémascope de 1958, réalisé par Henri Brandt avec un texte d'Heinz Sielman et consacré à la faune, à la flore et à l'étude ethnographique des populations congolaises.
Ce film fut le fruit d'un important travail de prises de vues et de montage dont des critiques jugèrent que le résultat était « captivant, impressionnant et émouvant par son réalisme » et qu'il exprimait « une haute tenue esthétique, une haute tenue scientifique également grâce à la coopération de savants éminents appartenant à diverses nations ». Pour en arriver à ce résultat, il fallut faire un choix dans 60 000 mètres de pellicule. Le montage fut confié à l'Anglais Lewis Linzee, connu pour avoir travaillé pour la Gaumont British, et la distribution internationale à la Twentieth Century Fox qui en tira vingt-deux versions en diverses langues, la version anglaise étant dite par Orson Welles. Une série de films éducatifs fut encore bâtie d'après les chutes.

Vienna is an eclectic blend of faux-documentary and comical skits. Welles presents a leisurely guided tour of "Vienna," commenting on the city and its inhabitants. He visits the Sacher Hotel, and the Wiener Riesenrad (Great Wheel) at the Prater amusement park, both of which appeared in the 1949 film The Third Man, in which Welles had a starring role. Peter Bogdanovich, disguised in a trench coat and dark glasses, appears as Welles' magician assistant. The film concludes with a spy film spoof, as Welles becomes involved in the abduction of "the most beautiful woman in Vienna" (Senta Berger), the kidnapper portrayed by Mickey Rooney.

Sentinels of Silence provides an 18-minute helicopter-based aerial visit across the archeological ruins in Mexico including Teotihuacan, Monte Alban, Mitla, Tulum, Palenque, Chichen Itza and Uxmal. The film’s narration details pre-Columbian Mayan culture, focusing on its achievements in mathematics and astronomy, and then questions how and why the Mayan society seemed to disappear, leaving behind its structures as the eponymous silent sentinels.
