Awesome book! Fascinating cover-to-cover. I learned a great deal about the creation and the (VERY interesting Chapter 9) speeds of silent film making and projection. Extremely engaging read. Well done, Ben! 👍🏻💙

Maybe you're thinking of Chaney's "London After Midnight"? That's also got a iconic creepy face associated with it.

Sure was! We had cake the last time I played there, too.

Love how silent films are regaining popularity; especially with younger audiences.

Last time our daughter came up, we showed her Keaton’s The Neighbors. Last night it we watched The Goat.

She’s a big fan of Metropolis.

Watched tonight! A few days late for Silent Movie Day. Your score is terrific and I enjoyed the movie.

This is so wonderful! She was my professor in the early ‘00s and one of the best profs I ever had. I’m so glad she’s still doing things like this!
