In Reply to: "Asphalt:" are you violently opposed to watching silent films? This gem from Germany posted by tinear on March 9, 2011 at 11:28:03:

Life in such a time. Its taken some time and persistant watching to develop the patience and discipline that my immersion in present day culture will not prevent my attending to these films.

I watched "The Last Laugh" over the weekend. Murnau directing Jannings who loses his prominant job as Doorman at a posh Hotel beging demoted to Washroom Attendant..

It really was difficult to find the patience to sit and watch these very old silent movies.

This particular film has a very nice modern score which may have contributed to keeping my interest through the whole film. I approached them initially for historical intertest and found some kind of new sympathy for the brevity of human life as I watch these ground breakers creating the new world of Film making.
