Michael, the airforce commander in HIgh Treason, stands in front of his troops. They're all dressed in leather jackets and trousers and aiming guns at the camera.
The UK's answer to Metropolis explores a future world on the brink of war, and how far one would go to maintain peace. #HippFest #SilentFilm #MauriceElvey #SciFi

"Carlotto was full of garlic & gaiety", aren't we all darling? Anna May Wong mesmerising in Song & a man played the accordian & the piano simultaneously live! #Hippfest has been an absolute triumph, a reminder - if we needed one - that the art of cinema has been intoxicating since the beginning.

Laurel & Hardy ( & James Finlayson)
Anna May Wong in 'Song'
Can't believe it's already the last day of #Hippfest. 14 films down 4 to go. It's been a brilliantly curated and organised friendly festival. 👏 But we still have Laurel & Hardy and Anna may Wong to look forward to at least.

APRIL FOOL was a charming Jewish comedy-drama about a Lower East Side rivalry, given extra sparkle wit BONUS Baby Peggy. Gorgeous accompaniment by @megmorley.bsky.social and her glittering shoes. #hippfest

John Garfield (going by Jack) has an early role in this 1919 melodrama, which was a treat at tonight’s #HippFest presentation - a cracking silent film restoration with original live score from Stephen Horne

Saw this yesterday at day 1 of #Hippfest. Amazing performance and film. So clear and dynamically filmed you'd think it was 1960s rather than 20s. Music was 👌
So try and see it next week Edinburgh types.

So I just arrived in Bo'ness for #hippfest and very much enjoyed Meg Morley's emotional score for the highly vertiginous "The Outlaw And His Wife". More treats to come!

By the way, team. #HippFest is up and running for 2026. www.hippodromecinema.co.uk/hippfest/ And they're showing High Treason, which I'm told is 1920s I-can't-believe-it's-not-doctor-who.

Even if those walls are only 3 feet apart. I love GDT's little verbal ticks. "And this and that." He says that all the time in countless interviews. I might have a t-shirt made with those words on it. A bit like the one I got from The Bo'ness Silent Film Festival #Hippfest.

Second film at #Hippfest today; Skinner's Dress Suit with @neilkbrand.bsky.social on piano. A gentle funny film and lovely music that will make you smile.
