One month from today, the Kansas Silent Film Festival will be celebrating its 25th annual event when it kicks off the 2022 event in Topeka. More information about the event, including the program of films, notes, directions and more, can be found HERE. Please note, this is a LIVE event with social distancing recommended. And what's more, the Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra, as well as pianists Ben Model, Jeff Rapsis and others will be providing live musical accompaniment.

Among the many highlight are screenings of Herbert Brenon's Peter Pan (1925), Stage Struck (1925, starring Gloria Swanson, The Goose Woman (1925), with Louise Dresser and Jack Pickford, and The Winning of Barbara Worth (1926), with Ronald Colman and Vilma Banky. No Louise Brooks this year.... but maybe in the future.
