Film Series: MoMA Silent Movie Week 2024, July 31-August 6
The Museum of Modern Art’s Silent Movie Week 2024 is being held this year from July 31st to August 6th. MoMA is one of several archives around the world with significant silent film holdings, and this annual series is an attempt to catch up with some of the recent restoration work done by MoMA and international colleagues. Each year, Silent Movie Week brings seven restorations to MoMA over the course of seven consecutive evenings.
The Women Film Pioneers Project is particularly excited about the screenings of The Wind (1928) and Secrets (1924), both written by American film pioneer Frances Marion. Secrets also features Norma Talmadge.
