You don’t need to know anything about the silent era at all to come to our festival, but these films will convert anyone to silent film fans because they’re just so modern in their aspect and their acting. They’re brilliant.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After this year, the film festival will return to the Castro Theatre after its grand reopening.

You don’t need to know anything about the silent era at all to come to our festival, but these films will convert anyone to silent film fans because they’re just so modern in their aspect and their acting. They’re brilliant.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After this year, the film festival will return to the Castro Theatre after its grand reopening.

The first title they’ll present to the public is \u003ci>The White Heather\u003c/i>, a 1919 silent film by Maurice Tourneur, which will have its “\u003ca href=\"https://www.moma.org/calendar/events/10213\">world premiere\u003c/a>” on Jan. 24, 2025 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. (No one alive has seen this film, Byrne points out.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Long thought lost, \u003ci>The White Heather\u003c/i> tells the story of a Scottish lord who seeks to annul his secret marriage to his housekeeper by destroying their marriage certificate — aboard a sunken yacht. Underwater scenes, technically groundbreaking for the time, ensue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The film’s only surviving print was found in the Netherlands, which means part of Byrne’s job has been to work with a graphic designer to recreate the original intertitles in English, based on the remaining Dutch version.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, the Film Preserve has three other restorations in progress: \u003ci>Hula\u003c/i> (1927), \u003ci>Black Lightning\u003c/i> (1924), and \u003ci>You Remember Ellen\u003c/i> (1912). Much of their work comes from archives and museums unable to undertake a project themselves — perhaps it’s an American film found in another country’s national vault, or it doesn’t align with the mission of the institution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of O’Regan’s days involve sitting in front of a computer and digitally restoring a film frame by frame. “For \u003ci>The White Heather\u003c/i>,” she says, “it took quite a number of months because it was in pretty bad shape. It was decomposing, there was mold. It had been heavily used in its original run in 1919, so it’s covered in scratches.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13969528\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13969528\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat.jpg\" alt=\"man at two wheels on boat\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat-800x576.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat-1020x734.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat-160x115.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat-768x553.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat-1536x1106.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2024/12/TheWhiteHeather_Boat-1920x1382.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A still from ‘The White Heather,’ 1919. \u003ccite>(San Francisco Film Preserve)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Both O’Regan and Byrne stress that there’s a real urgency to the work they do. Look no further than \u003ci>\u003ca href=\"https://silentfilm.org/preservation/now-were-in-the-air/\">Now We’re in the Air\u003c/a>\u003c/i>, a believed-to-be-lost 1927 silent film restored by the SFSFF. Of the six original reels, only portions of three were found in the Czech national film archive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the can were index cards that recorded the history of the film,” Byrne says. “They would do periodic inspections of the film and as parts deteriorated, they chop them off and throw them away because it just makes the rest of the film rot.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='arts_13951535']Every 10 years, according to the index cards, the film got shorter and shorter. Now, only 20 minutes remain. Imagining all the other films sitting uncatalogued in archives or unknown in private collections, Byrne says, “There’s more work to be done than anyone can possibly do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For their first year of operation as an independent entity, the San Francisco Film Preserve has big plans: monthly online talks on film history and restoration; offering two travel grants to the Association of Moving Image Archivists conference; funding a student essay prize with Women and Film History International; and working on Blu-ray collections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the most immediate, they’re throwing \u003ca href=\"https://filmpreserve.org/event/sffp-launch-party/\">a launch party\u003c/a> on Dec. 18 at 518 Valencia St. in San Francisco. Unlike the SFSFF, they won’t need hundreds of volunteers to put on events, but Byrne says they would love to hear from people with niche skills and an interest in preserving film.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want to be a resource for the community because we live in a city that people say awful things about all the time, and I think we’re the luckiest people in the world,” O’Regan says. “You know, we have this thriving film community, people who are incredibly passionate about the arts and culture. I want us to be a significant and worthwhile part of that.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

DeMille’s film about Christ, 1927’s \u003cem>The King of Kings\u003c/em>, has been seen by more people than any movie in human history. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How and why? For years after its theatrical release, religious groups were encouraged to rent prints for a minimal fee and missionaries schlepped copies ‘round the world. Like few movies before or since, Cecil B. DeMille’s spare-no-expense amalgam of religious gospel, carnival kitsch and educational film reached a mass(ive) audience. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the faithful moved on to sound and color films and DeMille’s biblical epic faded into memory, superseded by Nicholas Ray, Martin Scorsese and Mel Gibson’s respective renderings of the pre-prosperity gospel. Then Serge Bromberg of Paris-based Lobster Films, a familiar and popular presence at the \u003ca href=\"http://silentfilm.org/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco Silent Film Festival\u003c/a> every year, took a vow to restore \u003cem>The King of Kings\u003c/em> up to its original length and down to its striking two-color Technicolor sequences. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13827524\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/03/King-of-Kings.8_1200.jpg\" alt=\"Still from Cecil B.
