BBC Radio Documentary on Kevin Brownlow, Silent Film & the Making of Hollywood

This is a BBC Radio Documentary called "The Parade's Gone By," on Kevin Brownlow and his interest in silent-film. It also includes reminiscences on the making of Brownlow & Gill's famous thirteen-part "Hollywood" TV documentary of 1980.
This documentary was broadcast in 2005 for Radio 4 (thank-you "KM H" for the date). It seems to have been stored on my computer for about 15 years, so I thought some use ought to be made of it.

The story behind one of the best documentaries ever. Kevin Brownlow kicked off my life-long love affair with silent movies.

Pandora's Box, Mysterious Woman, The Birth of a Nation, Napoleon, Metropolis, Flesh and the Devil, The Temptress and 100's of other films are magnificent and are the beginnings of the entire film industry.

The irony of radio show about silent movies!
