Re: Silent Films

Watched Orlac last night - very good film with a nice twisting plot. The transfer was also pretty good with nothing more than the usual dust scratches showing.

Particular mention has to go to the film score - minimalist and sometimes dischordant but somehow compelling. It sat well with the visuals.

My only gripe was that the ending was just a little too tidy for my liking but, considering it was made when cinema was in its infancy, it's well worth checking out.
