Theda Bara Double Feature! Retro Format Silents

A FOOL THERE WAS / THE UNCHASTENED WOMAN
Retro Format: Films on 8mm Presents
A double feature of silent films starring the legendary siren Theda Bara will be followed by a variety of shorts,
including Felix the Cat films.



A FOOL THERE WAS
1915, 67 min, USA, Dir: Frank Powell
The legendary Theda Bara stars as the Notorious Woman ("Kiss me, my fool!") who started the vamping craze. "See what you made of me, and still you prosper, you hellcat!" exclaims a once-prominent businessman, now a panhandler, to the irresistible femme fatale.

THE UNCHASTENED WOMAN
1925, 52 min, USA, Dir: James Young
In Theda Bara’s last feature she stars as a pregnant woman who, having been scorned by her philandering husband, runs off to Europe and becomes the toast of society. But she doesn’t forget to return to America and settle the score with her hubby.
