This Friday TCM will have a celebration of Marion Davies’s birthday which includes “Lambchops”- a transitional sound short by Burns & Allen and Davies in “Beverley of Graustark” + 2025’s first #SilentSundayNights has more Marion Davies in “Show People”
#TCMParty #MarionDavies

Just a head’s up: Sadly, there’s no #SilentFilm on TCM’s schedule this week other than “Little Old New York” (1923) starring Marion Davies during the next #SilentSundayNights- please note the later than usual start time, as well.

Aww I learned late in the day it's #InternationalRabbitDay. Tomorrow though is #SilentMovieDay and now that my son plans to join me, I'm switching from #MarionDavies in "Quality Street" to #RaymondGriffith in "Hands Up!". He is looking up actors in Wikipedia, probably to curtail my background-yap during the screening. #MaxLinder, #OurGang, or #Lloyd Hamilton as starter course.

It’s Monday, again

You can say a lot about #WilliamRandolphHearst but at least he seems to have managed to find his #Rosebud which is a task that has historically eluded many men.
