A poem by a Silent, Silent Chinese

...Silent, Silent Chinese When we were called the Sick Man of Asia, we were the Yellow Peril When we are billed to be the next Superpower, we are a threat When we closed our doors, you smuggled drugs to our markets When we embraced Free Trade, you blame us for taking away your jobs When we were falling apart, you marched in your troops and...

...silent film scrapbook I found a few weeks ago, and I've been a little slow about it, but here's the first batch of photos. I thought it would be fitting to start with the first silent star in the book, Marguerite Clark, especially since she had so many pages devoted to her--probably around 7 or 8, maybe as many as Mary Pickford had in the...

...silent film scrapbook and pretend that I meant to say all of that rosebush beating stuff all along I've mentioned Lillian before, but have never done a whole post on her, if only because she's one of the more obvious and accessible of the silent film stars and you've probably all seen lots of photographs of her already. She was definitely...

...Silent Rave' in New York City's Union Square Unfortunately, if you 'Silent Rave' in DC there's a good chance your ass would get thrown in jail. That's a lesson a bunch of 'libertarians' just learned A group of about 20 people decided to get their 'Silent Rave' on at the Jefferson Memorial (in honor of Thomas Jefferson's birthday) on Saturday...

...silent film stars for years and years, which is kind of funny considering the fact that I've never even seen one of her films. Photos of her are much easier to come across than copies of her films (around only 10 of them survive), and any website dedicated to silent film beauties is bound to have a gallery of Corinne Griffith photos She was...

...silent film scrapbook I found. My goal is to eventually scan the whole thing to my Flickr account ( here's what I have so far), and to do a short little post on each actress in it. This time I skipped ahead in the book to go with a blonde actress, because I feel like I hardly ever include blondes in my silent film inspiration posts. And it...

...silent films. One of my main reasons for being afraid to cut my hair off before was my love of long-haired silent film stars like Lillian and Mabel and Madge. I forgot all about the short-haired stars I used to kind of idolize in college--actually I just saw an embarrassing video of me from '03 that turned up on Facebook, and I swear I stole...

...silent film stars. Now it's always been a dream of mine to find one of these things, and I really never thought I would. I'd just look at the silent films scrapbooks up for sale on Ebay and think about buying one, but would end up just copying a photo or two to my desktop instead I could have bought one from Ebay, but it was a hundred times...

...silent film star--she did star in some films, but she was much more famous for popularizing ballroom dancing with her husband Vernon Castle than for acting in the few silent films she made It's hard to imagine that there was a time in which ballroom dancers could be superstars, but that's how it was in in the pre-WWI era. Irene in particular...
