The program for the
2012 San Francisco Silent Film Festival has been announced. Book your vacation now, I have....

These are some of the stunning images seen last year at the San Francisco Silent Film Festival. Sadly, the film was nowhere near as clear as the print I saw on the big screen.

Look at that composition! They had visuals down by 1925, alright.

This is one film I didn't know I would enjoy as much as I did. I stuck around to see Jack Pickford and ended up falling for Louise Dresser's beautifully nuanced facial expressions. You never know what you are going to discover at the festival.

What are you excited to see?
