From Russia with Love


Russian film archive Gosfilmofond is sending the Library of Congress 200 (American) silent films which were used to teach 'budding Soviet filmmakers the finer points of directing, lighting, editing and costuming'.

NPR has the story as well as a clip from the 1923 silent film 'The Call of the Canyon' directed by Victor Fleming who went on to direct 'Gone with the Wind' and 'The Wizard of Oz'.
