OUR ESTEEMED COLLEAGUE, RUSSELL MERRITT

The DENVER SILENT FILM FESTIVAL just awarded the second annual David Shepard Career Achievement Award to our wonderful board member RUSSELL MERRITT. Hip hip hooray! Russell will be on stage at SFSFF 2018 at the AMAZING TALES FROM THE ARCHIVES program (with Elzbieta Wysocka and Rob Byrne) on May 31 to share the detective story that led to the rediscovery and restoration of Richard Oswald's HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES (screening June 2 at the festival).
