       Saturday, June 8th, 7:30pmBruce Loeb, Piano AccompanimentTHE WIZARD OF OZ (1925) Dorothy, heir to the Oz throne, must take it back from the wicked Prime Minister Kruel with the help of three farmhands. You’ve been over the rainbow...now see where director Larry Semon takes you in his wild adaptation of the Frank Baum classic! Starring Dorothy Dwan as Dorothy, Larry Semon as the scarecrow and Oliver Hardy as the tin man.Preceded by Shorts: The Mechanical Cow (1927, Disney) Oswald The Lucky RabbitKing of the Kongo (1929, D) Chapter 1: Into The UnknownThe adventure serial The King of the Kongo (Mascot Pictures, 1929) was produced in a hurry to be the first serial in sound. The ten episodes were made economically, incorporating stock footage, rented studio facilities, and pre-existing film sets such as remained from Don Juan (1926).  WIth Boris Karloff!

       @Essanay The 1925 Wizard of Oz is my personal choice for worst movie ever made. Good luck with the show anyway.

       @gmcgath Yeah it has a reputation!  But I guess that means any true #SilentFilm fan needs to see it, right? :)
