Just had to share this amazing piece of cinema reimagined. From an old silent picture made in 1922, it has been remastered and scored and re-released on YouTube for public consumption. It's a travesty that it's been up since Halloween and only had 72 views.

Well, dang. That's what I get for not previewing it first. Didn't know the owner had disabled embedding on other sites. Please take a chance and click anyway. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by this hidden gem of Art-Culture-Music. Though I have to admit, I'm tempted to mute the second chapter because of the music score selection.

Thank you for sharing this Guess.
I remember reading the opening quote from Jong’s book …. It gave me shivers then and I've lived to see it proved true.

"The witch is not dead; she is merely hibernating.
And witch-hunting itself is hardly dead: it is merely waiting to be born again under a different name.
"
