I second that . Thopugh I am no authority on film evolution, I do feel that with the advances made in Audio techiniques the silent film has a larger audience and a more receptive one. If the objective is one world in the future then silent films are a good start in communicating lifestyles and cultural differences. I recomend this movie called "PUSHPAK", a silent film made in India a few years ago which is a very refreshing change from the normal fare dished out by the film industry. A humorous film that depicta a normal life of a Indian male who is prospectingemployment and comes by an opportunity to lead a affluent life by a stroke of luck (which ultimately runs out on him) I guess a large Indian Grocery store will have this movie(by Indian I mean Asian Indian) On Wed, 10 Nov 1993, Missy wrote: > Let's hear it for Silent Films!!!!!! > > As far as I'm concerned NOTHING new has been accomplished visually > since the 1920's! > > Color?
