Silent Gold Memories > Viola Dana 🌟 Silent Film Star🌟
While Ms. Dana enjoyed a robust film career in silents, many of her movies are now lost. BUT thanks to online videos, you can catch her in That Certain Thing, directed by a young Frank Capra in 1928.

Before Disney, came Lotte Reiniger 🌟
The pioneer of silhouette animation, she created the 1st multiplane camera, vital in producing pre-digital animation. The Adventures of Prince Achmed * 1926, is the oldest surviving feature-length animated film.
