ARCHIVE TREASURES
Saturday, July 27 @ 7:30 p.m.
http://www.cinema.ucla.edu/events/archive-treasures
“Archive Treasures” showcases works from UCLA Film & Television Archive’s extensive holdings, one of the largest moving image collections in the world.
Restored by UCLA Film & Television Archive with funding from Turner Entertainment Company and AT&T.
NOAH’S ARK
1929
Warner Bros.' dazzling Biblical epic from the transition era features a Vitaphone music and effects track with dialogue scenes added during the production. As with D.W. Griffith's Intolerance (1916), a parallel modern story frames the Old Testament tale, shot with exacting realism by director Michael Curtiz. (Legend has it that several extras drowned during the shooting of the flood sequence.) A roadshow version, now lost, ran 135 minutes but tonight we present the general release version, restored by UCLA Film & Television Archive in 2006.
35mm, b/w, silent with sync sound, 100 min.
IN PERSON: author Alan K. Rode.
