Got to see this with live musical accompaniment at a San Francisco Film Society screening years ago.

I think it might be worth watching once in its own first.

Silent films in Japan always had narrators.

Yep. I’ve seen A Page of Madness and merely thought it was ok. I wonder if it needed a narrator to make it live up to the hype.

Well, so long to ever getting a good nights sleep again. Kee-RIST the pictures alone are nightmare fuel in and of themselves.

They played this on TCM several years ago.
