Celebrate National Silent Movie Day with a showing of the vintage silent film “Snow White” (1916) at the nonprofit West Newton Cinema on Monday, September 29 at 7 pm. The event boasts a magical live score accompaniment by harpist-composer Leslie McMichael and violist Barbara McMichael. Although there have been many film versions of this fairy tale, this silent movie was the first and the silent picture actually inspired a teen Walt Disney to make his own animated feature decades later. Snow White is played by Marguerite Clark in one of her few surviving film performances from the silent film era. The runtime of the vintage film with live harp and viola accompaniment is 62 minutes. https://www.westnewtoncinema.com/movie/snow-white-1916
