Chicago cinephile Patrick Friel performs a tremendous public service seeking out and sharing rare, early and hard-to-find silent films that now are available online. His favorite discoveries, a loose selection of shorts to be presented in chronological order, date between 1895 and 1915, and while some are easily found, others remain hidden in less well known places. With many discoveries, surprises and previously unknown genres coming to light on an almost daily basis!
