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!

Le Giornate del Cinema Muto 2024: Pordenone Post No 6
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. Behind the Scenes, per the catalogue is the “happy exception” among the 1908 output. Well it certainly had punch. A distraught mother must tear herself from her daughter’s sickbed to kick her heels and shake her…

The photo was taken for Photoplay, December 1924 - Portrait of May McAvoy in the role of Esther in Ben-Hur. She is wearing a blonde wig. (x)
Exactly one hundred years ago...
