An absolute CLASSIC in film making. A silent movie with typed narrative. Victor Hugo’s Hunchback of Notre Dame 92 minutes B/W Starring Lon Chaney. Notre Dame Cathedral a spiritual haven in a brutal age a sanctuary where the persecuted could find protection. The enduring moment of a mighty faith. It was in the broad Cathedral square that the people met to celebrate The Festival of Fools. The one day of the year when the people, crushed by tyranny, gave themselves to unrestrained pleasure. Ten years before Columbus discovered America, there dwelt within the rocky fastness of the cathedral a creature whom the Parisians of the day knew as the “Hunchback of Notre Dame”, Quasimodo.
