The pioneering early days of cinema are celebrated in the annual Pordenone Silent Film Festival, which takes place this year 7 – 14 October.
In the days before the talkies, silent movie stars such as Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton would entertain audiences, and the Pordenone event (marking the 42nd milestone year in 2023) proves that there is still a massive market for this brand of movie.
Restored films are ensured that visitors get the highest quality when watching. Rare and rediscovered silent films are of considerable interest, and continue to be shown at the event. Also of interest is a special book and cinema collectors fair.
Four screenings will occur throughout each day of the festival at 10.30am, 2.30pm, 5.30pm and 9pm.
