Spent Saturday evening at the Edison Theater - Silent Movie Museum in Niles watching an evening of Mary Pickford classics from the 1909 to 1913 period of silent films. How beautiful these century old films are! After a couple of them, the language of that era's silent film grows on you and you begin to hear them with your eyes.
And then you wander about the museum space and play with the old cameras. How simple and precise, how mechanical they feel. Beautiful things. Very inspiring evening. There is a simplicity and a nuance to these ancient photographic works that is sublime. :-) G -- Godfrey DiGiorgi - [email protected] -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
