The Golem (1920)

[Scott]

Gaming Club...............Those silent film buffs must have really wanted to see GOLEM. I can see them sitting on hard folding seats with peoples heads in the way and trying to "listen" to a silent film masterpiece while you people tried to turn it into ROCK HORROR PICTURE SHOW. How could you Shadowphile.

Maybe the University will show it in their auditiorium one day and they can see it the way it was intended. You owe it to them Shadowphile. : )

World War I and II are the major reasons Hollywood is so dominant worldwide.  A lot of places had their theatres, sound sets, and talent pools destroyed in the wars.  Italy used to make historical epics that were grandly made - who'da thought, huh?

We're going back almost 20 years for that gaming club movie night.  We also got treated to 'Sword and Crown',  which was chosen for it's title.  It turned out to be a Rin Tin Tin movie and the 'sword and crown' was a gang's password.  It lasted 3 minutes at most before it was boo'd off the screen.

As an aside, the Golem in the Golem was played by the director.  I'll bet he never had problems with actors arguing with him.  That man is huge...
