Seen on a local building yesterday. After a century and more, silent film still lives. #silentmovieday #silentfilm #classicfilm #filmsky

Just caught up with yesterday being #SilentMovieDay

One of my favourites is THE KID STAKES - an Australian silent adaptation of a newspaper comic about street kids having adventures.

And also KREIMHILD'S REVENGE, Fritz Lang's utterly mad epic about the Niebelungs and Attila the Hun and revenge

A quick post before the end of #SilentMovieDay encouraging you to watch more silent films directed by women. There’s a ton of them and they’re great!

Happy #SilentMovieDay to all who celebrate!! Five silent films just added to the "screening room" of the NFPF Website--including Clara Bow in POISONED PARADISE (1924), OAKLAND NEWSREELS (1914-1921), & a frozen north saga starring Corinne Griffith. 🎞️🎶🤩

Close up of a distraught George Beban in The Italian.

Watched THE ITALIAN (1915), a dark, dramatic story about two Italian immigrants and the tragedy they suffer in America. Made 110 years ago! Well done & thoughtful except for some insulting intertitles. Great music by @silentfilmmusic.bsky.social. Happy #SilentMovieDay!

Zasu Pitts somehow manages to sell verbal comedy in a silent film. Such were her talents!

Zasu Pitts steals the show as a malaprop-spouting maid in 13 WASHINGTON SQUARE (1928), an "old, dark house" sendup w/ a dash of social commentary.

The Kino Blu-ray is only $5.99 w/ @nitratediva.bsky.social commentary!

A good #Halloween watch

Happy Silent Movie Day! Silent movies are always a good choice. #filmsky #silentmovieday

The Italian (1915).

I was going to try tonight's next Pink Panther to see Herbert Lom but, confession, I find PP unfunny. So a silent film in honor of #SilentMovieDay instead!

Rudolph Valentino and Arthur Shirley, 'The Big Australian' Success, as the saying goes, has many fathers. Among those credited with ‘discovering’ Rudolph Valentino are actor Norman Kerry, scenarist June Mathis, actress Clara Kimball Young and producer...

This year, I dropped the ball on producing a new article for #silentmovieday, so instead I'll point you to last year's contribution, about Rudolph Valentino's friendship with the Australian actor Arthur Shirley.

🎬✨ National Silent Movie Day honors the golden era of cinema, when Chaplin, Keaton & Bow proved stories could move hearts without words. 🎥 From reels to live music, these films shaped storytelling—and restoration keeps their magic alive. 🌟

Celebrate Silent Movie Day with the Chaplin classic THE GOLD RUSH (1925), today at 6:30 PM on #TCM. #classicmovies #silentmovies #silentmovieday

The top two highest rated decades in my Letterboxd stats are the 1920s followed by the 1900s, and in the stats showing the number of films watched by language, "no spoken language" is at number 3.

I guess that means Happy #SilentMovieDay

If you’d like to celebrate #SilentMovieDay, all 13 episodes of HOLLYWOOD are on Internet Archive.

Kevin Brownlow and David Gill wrote, directed, and produced this 1980 documentary series for Thames Television/ITV, featuring a score by maestro Carl Davis.

Had no idea this was today (or even a thing!) but I literally just finished watching a silent movie!

Love it when I accidently celebrate things! #SilentMovieDay

Another highly rewarding video for me to make was the one on the trailblazing Silent Serial Queens like Helen Gibson, Ruth Roland, Pearl White, and other cliff-hanging heroines who defined early action cinema but eventually faded from the screen. #SilentMovieDay

Watch here: youtu.be/3jJFvdKjX2w?...

What better way to celebrate #SilentMovieDay today than with a viewing of The Phantom of the Opera (100 years!!) #PhantomoftheOpera #LonChaney #Cinephile #NationalSilentMovieDay

Happy #SilentMovieDay!

Three years ago I explored Buster Keaton’s unique vision on love and the lessons I got from his films. Still one of my favorite videos to have worked on.
