As new people have arrived, here's an introduction:
Silent Beauties is an account on silent films, with some history, travelling and dad's jokes.
Although I never talk about politics, the progressist values are fully respected. No prejudice, racism, homophobia, etc here.
Nice to meet you all!

There are four film stills. Black and white. In the first one there is the initial credits of the film. In the second one a man is all wet due to the rain and is trying to light a cigarette. In the third one a woman hugs a man and he seems to be very happy about it. In the fourth one there are two men besides each other, one of them looks like a doctor.

In addition to films, I've been watching documentaries about history. It's so cool to learn foreign languages and history. I never get tired of those subjects.

The more I watch videos/films the more I cherish the work of film/video editors. This is very hard work and decisive to highlight the quality of what the audiences are going to watch. In a world where content creation is so common, it's an important skill to have.
