The Patriot (1928 retro trailer)


The very last silent film ever to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars… until, we may presume, The Artist is nominated on Tuesday.

The film itself is, sadly, lost.

It’s the perfect motion picture! The screen’s most glorious achievement to date! No question about it.

And why would you want to see that one actor, Neil Hamilton?

Why, he’s handsome and popular!
