We would love to connect with more filmmakers in the Fediverse!

If you are a filmmaker, please say hi. And if you follow great filmmakers, please share your recommendations.

Thank you!

Edited to say: Boosts on this are welcome and appreciated. Thanks again!

Today is the 132nd anniversary of the birth of Ivor Novello, a true man of the theatre. From non-musical plays such as the Truth Game, to silent films such as The Lodger (later remade with sound), to talkies such as I Lived with You, to the wonderfl operettas for which he is so well-known, such as the Dancing Years, he demonstrated extreme versitility, creativity, and genius. His ability to bring characters to life with exacting detail, often in glamorous settings, and to choose just the right actors to play them, was legendary. While he died at only fifty-eight, he left us with intriguing worlds to explore, many lovely songs to sing, and a true appreciation of greatness. May we remember him today and always keep a song and hope in our hearts.

Note: Many of his films, both silent and with sound, several of his songs by the original artists, and a few tributes and documentaries, some again with those who knew him, can be found on Youtube. Others can be purchased on Amazon..
