Auch nach 99 Jahren bleibt Ramon Novarro die attraktivste Karfreitags-Bibelschinken-Option, weshalb wir uns einmal mehr nicht zu Charlton Heston durchringen konnten. Vielleicht nächstes Jahr. Wobei, da wird dieser 100, das muss man doch begehen!

Wouldn’t you like to go Behind the Scenes with DW Griffith and Florence Lawrence? I sure would, that’s why I was bright and early at the Verdi this morning for the 1980 Biograph package.

(September 8, 1899 – April 26, 1984) was an American actress who worked mainly during the silent-film era. Some of her major roles are Laura Pennington in The Enchanted Cottage, Esther in Ben-Hur, and Mary Dale in The Jazz Singer.

Exactly one hundred years ago...
