Betzwood Silent Film Festival May 2, 2009

Train wrecks, Roman orgies, the Schuykill River in flames, and Betzwood's role in the First World War, all this and more will be revealed when the vaults of the Betzwood Film Archive are opened for the special 20th Anniversary Show! Along with the usual sampling of Betzwood films, the College will present the complete history of the Betzwood studios with narration, vintage photographs, and rare footage never seen by the public before. Find out what it took to produce America's first disaster movie. See why Marie Dressler would not win on 'Dancing with the Stars.' With narration by Professor Joseph Eckhardt, musical accompaniment by the ever-popular Don Kinnier, and sound effects by the audience, it's sure to be an earth-shaking event.
