Hi. Um...is it too late to get in one last contribution before this blog-a-thon officially ends, or has it officially ended already. In any case, I didn't have much time last week to craft something really good for the blog-a-thon, but I decided to give a shout-out to it at my blog tonight. I also said a few words about King Vidor's 1928 masterpiece The Crowd, since that was what I was originally going to write about for the blog-a-thon in more depth. Anyway, here's the link, and I hope it suffices: http://mylife24fps.blogspot.com/2010/02/odds-ends-for-week-ended-feb-20-2010.html

My humble collaboration to this magnificent blogathon is here, I talk about my “favorit lost film”, I give some info and some hope on its finding. I could never be on match of my fellow posters, so I decided to bring it to a new audience, as I wrote it in Spanish.
Thank you and good luck with the Blogathon:
Un Vampiro no tan Inmortal/A not so Inmortal Vampire
Thanks.

It's not directy related to the blogathon, but coincidentally the next item in my series on Grauman's Chinese, which I just posted this morning, is Raoul Walsh's hand, feet, and eye patch prints: http://cablecarguy.blogspot.com/2010/02/graumans-chinese-7-february-20-2010.html It serves as a supplement to Arthur S's excellent post on Walsh: http://thispigsalley.blogspot.com/2010/02/walsh-and-friends.html Next month it's John Barrymore, including his profile.

One more short and personal addition–mostly because the Orphans Symposium has only been briefly alluded to in the blogathon.
