FP 008 Sunrise (1927)

from Filmically Perfect Hosted by Filmically Perfect

Near the very end of the SIlent Era, just a month before Warner Bros. turned the film world upside down with The Jazz Singer, F. W. Murnau’s lyrical cinematic tone-poem Sunrise was released. It is appropriate that this film ushered out the era of purely visual film language, for they just couldn’t get much better or purer than this.

Besides being the first silent film we’ve discussed, this was also our first pre-recorded program.
