Silent Films

<< < (2/3) > >>

soap:
thats an excellent list!
i remember watching Nosferatu in an media studies lesson back in school and cringing at the fact that some of the other people in the class couldn't quite grasp the concept of a movie with no sound

in may i'm going to see the pet shop boys perform a live score to this with an orchestra and full light show spectacular in a working ship yard, sounds like it could be utterly immense.

there was an radio play adaptation of that last week, but i missed it :(

Kai:
Nosferatu is great and is one of the few silent films I actually bought.


Has anyone seen the version where the soundtrack is done entirely with Type O Negative songs?

KharBevNor:
I own it and love it. There's a few dodgy bits, but some of the synching is glorious. It also totally manages to make the speed-up effects less cheesy. Nosferatu is one of my favourite films anyway

@Chupones list:

"MY UNCLE WAS BEST FRIEND WITH HITLER
HE HAD SOME COOL FOOTAGE OF DACHAU
I WAS WATCHING AMERICAS FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS ON DUST
AND SENDT SOME FOOTAGE TO THAT FUCKING GAY SHOW

I SENT CONCENTRATION CAMP FOOTAGE TO AMERICAS FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS
I SENT CONCENTRATION CAMP FOOTAGE TO AMERICAS FUNNIEST HOME VIDEOS

I DIDN'T WIN THE $10,000
SO I SENT INTERMENT CAMP FOOTAGE
I DIDN'T WIN AGAIN
SO I SENT BIRTH OF A NATION"

Yeah, yeah, I know it's historical importance in film-making, the innovation and so forth, but it is such a hateful film.

Kai:
Which movie are we talking about there? Birth of a Nation? With the Klu Klux Klan Saving the poor white woman from the crazed negroes? We totally watched that in my Drama class when covering Film history, and laughed like crazy.


Actually, we watched Nosferatu there too. Because my teacher is ace.

Scandanavian War Machine:
i've wanted to see Un Chien Andalou for a long time and have never gotten around to it. I've heard good things though.
but i CAN second Nosferatu because that is a cool ass movie.
