A perfect companion to Dartmoor is Silent Britain, a feature-length documentary that celebrates this newly-rescued golden age of British filmmaking. Hosted by Matthew Sweet, it spans from such early pioneers as George Albert Smith and Cecil Hepworth to such later figures as Asquith, Maurice Elvey and, of course, Hitchcock. Featuring clips from a remarkable range of films (some of the earliest films featured are available in their entirety on Kino's DVD set The Movies Begin), Silent Britain is the perfect means to reacquaint oneself with early British film history or discover it for the first time... Featuring JACK CARDIFF, IAN CHRISTIE, BRYONY DIXON, MICHAEL EATON, and FRANK GRAY. Archival footage of ALFRED HITCHCOCK, JOAN MORGAN,GEORGE PEARSON, MABEL POULTON and CHRISSIE WHITE. A BBC and BFI co-production (Kino)
