More on Capra (and others) at the Stanford

~ Lincoln Spector

Since I wrote my Capra at the Stanford post yesterday, the Stanford folks have filled in a few things. For one thing, the promised but named Capra silent has been named, and my hopes have been fulfilled. On November 30, you can see The Strong Man with organ accompaniment by Dennis James. It’s a great one.

Also added to the list is The King and I (1956), on a double-bill with a Michael Powell/Emeric Pressburger collaboration called Oh… Rosalinda!, some Reginald Denny silent comedies, and a selection from Capra’s “Why We Fight” series.
