silence is golden


Have you seen Hugo? Do you remember this Georges Melies' film? Well, then I'm sure you will share my excitement. I was on Twitter today when I saw a tweet from Newcastle Museum revealing that they'll be screening this restored classic this Sunday.

Hand-coloured fabulousness. Bring it.

Here are all the details of the Silent Film Festival. How much fabulousness is there in this world?

  1. Sounds great! My kids love the book (and film) so much that Daughter went to her Book Week parade today as Isabelle. Might have to pop in to see it on Sunday.

  2. I'm a bit of a sci fi nerd myself so I happen to know that Le Voyage Dans La Lune is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. Apparently it was really ground breaking stuff back in 1912.
    Hope you really enjoy the film festival.

    1. It's just freaky isn't it that it was made 100 years ago. Can you imagine the work that went into all that hand-colouring? Can't wait to check it out!
