Tue, 6 June 2006  In June and July, those fortunate individuals who live in the San Francisco Bay Area will have two film festivals to choose from. In this special episode, we're going to be talking about the San Francisco Silent Film Festival at the Castro Theatre and the Bronco Billy Film Festival in historic Niles, California. We're speaking with David Kiehn from the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum and Stephen Salmons from the San Francisco Silent Film Festival about the terrific programs both these festivals have lined up. We're also having a chat with preeminent Harold Lloyd expert, Annette D'Agostino Lloyd who is presenting five Harold Lloyd shorts at the Bronco Billy Festival. A special thank you to New World Records and their CD The Mighty Wurlitzer which features Gaylord Carter on the Mighty Wurlitzer and to Saydisc and their CD The Theatre Organ which features Ronald Curtis on the Compton Theatre Organ. Both labels have courteously allowed use of music from their CDs. If you enjoy theater organs and silent film music, check them out! Comments[1] |
