Please note that this club Screening has now moved to April 2014. This is down to a change in the Bristol Silents Club Screening Schedule for late 2013. This will now happen in early 2014.
April’s Club Screening will pay tribute to Wallace Reid (1892 – 1923) who was, in many, a walking film studio. The man did everything and died way too young.

Handsome, clean-cut star of the late 1910s who frequently directed, and sometimes wrote, his own vehicles. Son of a well-known actor and playwright, Reid got his start acting as a child. After prep school and some time spent editing a racecar magazine, he entered films in earnest in 1910. The handsome, dark-haired Reid worked as an actor, cameraman, stuntman and screenwriter for such companies as Vitagraph, Reliance, Universal and American for the next few years.
