I finally made it to the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum in Fremont, CA. I know it seems a little obscure but I st could not help but want to go once I heard about it.

I have liked silent films since i was a kid when I first saw a Charlie Chaplin film. It has snow balled from there. Many more movies  became favorites the Russian classic Potemkin and Metropolis as well as the myriad of campy hero and heroin flicks of the era. I mean really who could not get a good laugh out of the Perils of Pauline with their experimentation into comedy and the use of props and gestures with no talking. These films are brilliant given the sound restrictions. I am looking forward to a museum devoted to the subject. I love movies especially classics and silent films so getting to the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum in Fremont, CA is not that weird.

Living in Las Vegas, Fremont is not really that far away. The decision was to drive or fly and rent a car. In light of the time factor flying was going to be the best choice so I booked my flight and hotels Fremont and got ready to go!

I was looking forward to seeing the collection of posters and other silent movie memorabilia they would have. Knowing there is a showing of a classic silent film on Saturday nights I was sure to book my reservations for over the weekend and going in the month of October, of course, the theme is horror films. These are some of the best silent films I must say. The evening I will be there I should be able to see some Dracula and Frankenstein films. I can not explain how excited I am and what I nerd I must sound like
