About this show

For the third time, join Richard Kendall as he introduces a silent film classic. This year it’s the landmark special effects driven blockbuster The Life of Moses (1909). Coming in at a gargantuan (for the era) 50 minutes, the popularity of this Vitagraph production was a significant milestone in showing that audiences would turn out for longer fare. This episodic account of the prophet’s life was directed by J Stuart Blackton.
