Silent Movies


Last weekend I got to enjoy a step back in time. The Capital Theater hosted a night with Charlie Chaplin. Tickets were 25 cents so who could pass that opportunity up. They pulled out the old organ that use to play for the silent movies when Capital Theater was still playing them. It was a really enjoyable night (after the they finally ended the radio program. Who decides to broadcast a silent movie over the radio, I ask you. Well they seemed to make quite a bit of commentary to fill up a radio program. So as soon as they were done with their program, they started the movie). It was great to see a movie like that. Nobody does comedy like that anymore, its actually really disappointing. In all it was a really great night, and they do it every year. I highly recommend it everyone go to it next year. But you do have to get there early, the seats filled up really fast.
