Silent DVD - Treasures from American Film Archives
This week Silent DVD has a look at the re-issue of Treasures from American Film Archives. Originally released in 2000, this set went out of print in 2004 (and was fetching high prices on e-bay.) This new release of the set has the same content as the original, and has a retail price that's $30 less than the original release, making this a great deal for a wonderful collection of interesting and rare films. We also look at the fifth volume of the Slap Happy series. Half way through and the series is still going strong. Finally we have a review of another one of Milestone's Mary Pickford releases, Heart O' the Hills. In addition to the title film, this disc includes another Pickford feature, M'Liss. Both are entertaining films where Pickford plays a backwoods girl with a lot of spunk and a heart of gold. The column also has the line up for this years San Francisco Silent Film Festival, and news of a new silent feature that's been announced. Be sure to check out our previous columns too for a review of last year's Silent Film Festival and a look at the sequel to Treasures from the American Film Archives, More Treasures from the American Film Archives.
