And it runs through Sunday at the Castro Theatre.
The annual film noir festival takes over the Castro for 10 days in the cinematic underworld, including Shadow of a Doubt, Hitchcock’s first foray into the Bay Area.
From Lady Wintermere’s Fan to a 1928 British film about prison sex in Paris, “A Day of Silents” is a movie marathon you won’t feel the least bit guilty bingeing on.
He played Phil Collins, too. But also plenty of his own hits: “New Pollution,” “Devil’s Haircut,” “Where It’s At.”
Plus Paul Robeson (in dual roles!) and Douglas Fairbanks at his most swashbuckling-iest.
Silents are golden. So is this film festival.
Eric Cohen ditched Wall Street for Northern California, and combines dual passions for winemaking and social justice.
