Back to school time! Here’s a roundup of the silent movie news I really want to share with you as summer turns into autumn. Just think how many of these forthcoming delights you could enjoy for less than the cost of a dynamically priced Oasis ticket.
Screenings and festivals
- I missed StummFilmTage Bonn this year again – both in person and online. But Paul Joyce and Paul Cuff both kept us up to date with their fabulous blogs.
- Wareham Silent Film Weekender. The crown jewel in South West Silents’ autumn lineup is this three-day festival of silent cinema at the gorgeous Rex Cinema in Wareham, Dorset. No lineup news as yet but we know to expect great things from SWS. They are also hosting, for example, a screening of Hitchcock’s The Manxman (1928) in Polperro, close to where it was filmed.
