As previously mentioned in my theme month announcement, my Scottish theme was chosen because I will be in Scotland for Hippfest. It is an all-silent program with live music and they will be screening my release of Kidnapped. I am very much looking forward to the festival, the films, and the music. Live accompaniment is not something I get to enjoy often, so this is a big treat for me.
Since I am packing and will be occupied with festival fun, I won’t be posting my usual weekly reviews until April but I hope to post festival updates on mobile. I have previously attended silent film festivals but this will be my first time attempting any kind of real-time coverage, so apologies in advance for any bumps in the road.
Hippfest is held at the historic Hippodrome in Bo’ness, Scotland’s oldest theater, and watching silent films in period surroundings is a great pleasure. If you can’t make it in person, there is also a Hippfest at Home option to stream these films anywhere in the world.
Off to my adventures!
