So far here on this Cinematic Century project I haven’t really thrown any curve balls. I always like to give some context, and mention other great movies that were released in the years that I look at, but for the most part I haven’t really had a […]
Well, it looks like the fun little marathon of silent comedies that’s been making up my Cinematic Century for the last couple of weeks has finally come to an end. And, what better way to finish of this run of quirky comedies than with one of the biggest […]
Today we have another installment of Cinematic Century, it’s the final film in the accidental marathon of silent comedies that I’ve had going for the last couple of weeks, and it’s also the final time we’ll be talking about Mister Buster Keaton. We’re nearing the end of […]
