How do you “unmask” performers whose entire careers depended on performance itself? Man of a Thousand Faces, Chaplin, and The Life and Death of Peter Sellers reveal less about their subjects than about the anxieties, values, and fantasies of their times.

End of a very busy but satisfying Saturday in the book trenches. Now an amble to the Filmhouse for the first of the weekend's #Halloween treats: 1925's silent classic, The Phantom of the Opera, with live music. My first *centenary* film screening!
But first, FH nachos in the café-bar!

Tickets booked for bookshop chums & I to see the original, silent version of The Phantom of the Opera (with the amazing Lon Chaney) with live music at the Filmhouse for #Halloween
I've been to many anniversary screenings recently (going to a 60th anniversary screening of Sound of Music today, in fact), but this will be my first centenary one.

Vastly inferior to Karloff's masterpiece and shockingly poor transfers, but Universal's four sequels to The Mummy are still very enjoyable.

We've decided to extend spooky season ONE more episode!
Thomas suggested we have a look at the silent classic, "The Phantom of the Opera" starring Lon Chaney and pair it with something a LITTLE different, the 2004 musical!
What are YOUR thoughts on either of these two films?

Last night I lulled myself off to bed by watching the first 30 minutes or so of a #silentfilm on YouTube while instead of the accompanying stock music I played a #shoegaze compilation on Bandcamp and it was kind of a nice combination though I want to try something more dramatic or spooky to match #LonChaney 's performance when I go to finish it before bed most likely.

WEST OF ZANZIBAR is a 1928 silent tropical melodrama spiced with horror. Directed by Tod Browning, stars Lon Chaney. Deep in the jungle a bitter cripple plots a terrible revenge. Outrageous, but the 1932 talkie remake KONGO is vastly superior.

3 things about Tod Browning’s THE UNKNOWN [1927]
1. Treadmills for horses.
2. “Men! The beasts! God would show wisdom if he took the hands from all of them!”
3. Playing guitar with his feet.#3things #horrormovies #Halloween #joancrawford #lonchaney #movies #silentfilm #CinemaMastodon #cinema

House of Frankenstein (1944) is one of Universal's monster rally movies. A jumble of not very original ideas but well-executed, it looks good and has a great cast led by Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney Jr and Lionel Atwill. Fun despite its flaws.

#Bales2023FilmChallenge December 3: hugged on #LetsHugDay
Nanon (#JoanCrawford) is mortally afraid of men. Of their grabbing, grasping, groping hands. She only trust knife thrower Alonzo the Armless (#LonChaney) but he and accomplice (#TufeiFilhela) use the #circus to hide from the long arm of the law. Who'd suspect an armless man? The Unknown (1927) is arguably #TodBrowning and Chaney Sr's pinnacle of silent #precode #horror. 14 minutes are still missing. Check your attic!

Today is the U.S. Marine Corps Birthday (a day before Veterans Day). Mark it by enjoying the horror master Lon Chaney in a non-horror turn but still scary as a Marine sergeant in 1926's "Tell It To The Marines"!
