Heard about silent nights at the Hippodrome?
A Taste of Silents is produced by the team behind the Hippodrome Silent Film Festival – or HippFest as it has become known – and aims to introduce new audiences to the rich, immersive and captivating world of silent film, accompanied by live music in the beloved Bo’ness flicks.
This year’s Taste of Silents season continues on Saturday (September 15) with a showing of Alfred Hitchcock’s The Lodger (1927), followed on Saturday, September 29 by Buster Keaton’s insane train journey classic The General (1926).
