In case you guys missed the announcement in the Silent Screenings section this coming Saturday/Sunday the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum will be hosting an Al Christie Tribute using 12 of the films I have on my DVD's plus a recorded Zoom meeting with myself, Sam Gill and Steve Massa two film historians and authors; and on Sunday a live Zoom meeting with the three of us. I don't know how long the Sunday one will be but the Saturday zoom ran over 3 hours and I had a blast talking with Sam & Steve. We have shortened the it down to just over an hour.

You're already there (online).

This is the announcement discussion, right? https://nitrateville.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=31331

Yes that was the announcement.

What a treat!
So many aspects of this past year have been difficult, but then there are so many folks finding ways to put smiles in line . Connecting through comedy is what is getting me through.

Thanks so much for doing this.
I will be there. How do O find the link/ links to the programs?

On previous Niles events, the links do not appear on the Niles page until the day of the show, but they will remain up there for a while afterwards.

Yes the links won't go live until 12:00 AM Saturday morning. You can go to their web page www.nilesfilmmuseum.org or go to youtube and search for Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum and pull it up there too.

Fantastic! Looking forward to catching up with these programs, especially those Neal Burns & Dorothy Devore shorts
Thanks for making these available.
