What an exciting Bastille Day announcement - Abel Gance's Napoleon will be screened for 4 days next spring at the gorgeous Paramount Theater in Oakland, with the Oakland East Bay Symphony conducted by Carl Davis. Kevin Brownlow himself announced it tonight at the premiere program of the San Francisco Silent Film Festival.
A collective gasp, then a cheer erupted in the theater as the first few images appeared during the trailer. It took me a few more seconds to figure it out.
Keep March 24th, 25th, 31st or April 1st open. And yes, the triptych will be shown.

I missed you totally over the festival weekend. I've got my tickets for Napoleon and could not be more excited about it.
I missed you too! I was looking for you by the photo you posted from last year's SFSFF.
I also heard you had a presentation at the SFPL? If I'd known I'd have gone!
I'll follow your blog for your next book appearance and introduce myself.
