7th Heaven (1927)

 


I watched the film "7th Heaven (1927)" screened in "Summer of Silents" with live music performances at the Academy.  I was so moved and touched.  It made me feel like singing the song "Ue o Muite Aruko (Sukiyaki)" in my heart.  This film was nominated for the 1st Academy Award for Best Picture, and Janet Gaynor won for Best Actress.  I saw a picture of Douglas Fairbanks hosting the ceremony and presenting her with the Oscar statuette.

The autumnal equinox 2011

 


The autumnal equinox has just passed.  I walked around the park to enjoy the transition from late summer to early autumn.  I felt the rhythm of nature using the five senses.  I looked up at the cloudy sky blankly and thought of stars in the night sky at the time of year.

A Trip to the Moon (1902)

 


There was a screening of the recently restored film "A Trip to the Moon (1902)" in color at the Academy.  I was amazed at that an imaginary journey to the moon was described in a film a century ago.  The event featured a description of the film restoration process and a screening of short films produced from 1897 to 1937, too.  These films were full of fresh ideas and unforgettable moments.
