Sacred Arts Festival Film at St Vincent’s Undercroft: The Life of Moses

Richard Kendall introduces a silent film classic, special effects driven The Life of Moses (1909), an episodic account of the prophet’s life
About this Event

For the third time, join Richard Kendall as he introduces a silent film classic. This year it’s the landmark special effects driven blockbuster The Life of Moses (1909). Coming in at a gargantuan (for the era) 50 minutes, the popularity of this Vitagraph production was a significant milestone in showing that audiences would turn out for longer fare. This episodic account of the prophet’s life was directed by J Stuart Blackton.
