The first Edwin S. Porter in 2024 was so nice, we had to attend it twice. The Golden Silent Films Podcast returns to the great town of Connellsville for a night of film, music and history.

We take another look at the life of Edwin S. Porter with a special emphasis on his work history as a projectionist which works great considering what films we watched. This fantastic event took place on September 13, 2025.In this episode, we'll also take a look at the stories, the history and the personalities that came together to make a few fun films!

We discuss "The Whole Dam Family and the Dam Dog", "The Life of an American Fireman", "The Rink" and "Sherlock Jr."
