The Ritz Brothers @ Universal Olsen & Johnson @ Universal Hugh Herbert @ Universal

The Thelma Todd-ZaSu Pitts and Thelma Todd-Patsy Kelly 2-reelers from Hal Roach Studios.

Universal's "Detective Bill Crane" trilogy starring Preston Foster.

Monogram's "The Shadow" trilogy starring Kane Richmond.

Paramount's Pine-Thomas "B" unit. Many of those starred Richard Arlen or Chester Morris.

Warner Oland as Fu Manchu (3 Paramount titles).

Some excellent additions. Frankly, I'm surprised at some of these requests...especially those that have already played on TCM.

Jon Hall & Maria Montez

Universal's Crime Club films Universal's Inner Sanctum films Peggy Ryan & Donald O'Connor Charlie Ruggles & Mary Boland Columbia's Ellery Queen films The Three Mesquiteers The East Side Kids Bela Lugosi's "Monogram 9"

Bravo, TCM, for showing this with the original titles. For years this was shown on television as MARCH OF THE WOODEN SOLDIERS with altered titlres. Eventually it was even colorized.

> {quote:title=obrienmundy wrote:}{quote}i would like to see more silent films on TCM. And, although this does not apply to TCM, I wish that the Warner Archive DVD Series will focus again on bringing classic movies to DVD. In reference to silents, I would love to see THE LAST WARNING and SEVEN FOOTPRINTS TO SATAN on TCM. Neither is lost. Let me also add SORROWS OF SATAN and THE BAT.

There is one imdb review in which the reviewer says that the film was screened at Graumann's Chinese Theater in 1985.

I won't be home on Christmas Day. If I was, I'd watch some Universal Horrors, a Charlie Chan and maybe a low-budget 50s sci-fi.

The discovery and broadcast of Universal's THE CAT CREEPS (1930) starring Helen Twelvetrees, Neil Hamilton, Lilyan Tashman and Jean Hersholt.

I'm not sure I understand the question. But for me, PHANTOM OF THE OPERA is THE silent film.

The blackface bit was harmless but silly. 1945, people!

That's the kind of attitude that kept the Charlie Chans films suppressed.

Bravo. The Una Merkel and William Seiter birthday fests were great.

I haven't watched it yet but think it's silly to be offended by blackface in a 1945 movie.
