A Day of Silents 2016

December 3, 2016 at the Castro Theatre

About

A Day of Silents 2016 presented six silent film programs with glorious live music! Swanson, Chaplin and Veidt were just a few of the stars on screen, with Eisenstein, Lubitsch and Von Sternberg behind the camera. We also presented the striking Different from the Others, one of the very earliest cinematic cries for equality for the LGBTQIA+ community.
