How do I find out about theatrical screenings and TV showings of silent film?
The best place to start is The Silents Majority. Poke through there and you’ll find an exhaustive listing of silent film screenings and TV showings. http://www.mdle.com/ClassicFilms/ Glen Pringle’s site also lists silent film screenings and TV showings. http://www.cs.monash.edu.au/~pringle/silent/ Thomas Murray’s Live Cinema Calendar is another great resource for upcoming silent film screenings. http://www.cinemaweb.com/lcc/ Live in Manhattan? Just visiting? Well, Tom Moran’s site of silent film showings will tell you which silent films are playing where in New York City. http://members.aol.com/Feuillade/TomMoran17.index.html Feuillade, by the way, was the nom de film of a French director who made cult fave and avant-garde serials during the ‘teens. If you cycle around Tom Moran’s ‘site you’ll learn all about Feuillade and other great stuff. The Silent Film Society of Atlanta posts silent film theatrical showings and has great links to other film fests and silent sites. http://www.geck
