The showcase will feature one of director Alfred Hitchcock’s first film projects, The White Shadow (1923). 'With more than 35 years of celebrating silent films, we’re honored to bring this unique film experience to our community and to further the appreciation of the art of silent film.' 'We’re thrilled to invite guests back to the Avalon Casino Theatre to take part in one of Catalina’s grandest traditions,' said Sheila Bergman, Executive Director of the Catalina Museum for Art & History. It returns on Saturday, May 13 for an authentic 1920s cinematic experience that will bring the era before sound film or “talkies” to life in one of Southern California’s greatest movie palaces. The 36th annual Avalon Silent Film Showcase presented by Catalina Museum for Art & History is recognized as one of the world’s longest running annual celebrations of Silent Film.
