City of Orinda Launches ORINDAREADY.COM, Enhancing Wildfire Preparedness and Public Evacuation • Orinda, CA

#SF #SFBA

Just heard on #KTVU2 news @ 545am . . .

#BART is NOT running between #Concord & #Orinda due to a power outage.

SO many problems with BART recently. 🤦

Just a quick reminder that our theater is dark this weekend--if you want to see silent movies, go out and see the big SF Silent show at #Orinda! https://silentfilm.org/

@Essanay Already watched #Song starring #AnnaMayWong on #Youtube in advance of the show but I'm going to #Orinda to see it in #Orinda on the #BigScreen with a musical accompaniment (the vid did not have a sound track) the day after tomorrow on Sat 11/15.

Used to live in Orinda but haven't been back there for years. This will be a chance to do a little sightseeing too. ☺️

In #Orinda for the SF #SilentFilm Festival.
The #Orinda Theater. The SF #SilentFilm festival will be here in a few days. I'm going and it'll be my first visit to this fabulous looking theater.
The Orinda #SFBart station is s block away and that'd his we got home.
The back exit from the Sibley Volcanic Region in the #Oakland hills. This trail zigs and zags down to #Orinda. You end up in a new (autocentric and dull) development in the hills. A fellow biker showed us an unofficial escape route via a hard to see trail. It's next to a street called "Frog Leap".

I'm going to see this silent film starring #AnnaMayWong which is being shown in #Orinda this coming Saturday 11/15:

Anna was a groundbreaking actress of #AsianAmerican descent. If you are not familiar with her, you can find information about her here:

And you can find info about the film here:

And I just discovered that a copy of the film is available on #YouTube which can be seen here:

Unfortunately, there is no accompanying music; it's entirely silent.

MEANWHILE AT THE ORINDA THEATER

Sunday, November 16th 11:00 am $18/$16

Part of the San Francisco Silent Film Festival #SFSFF2025

NESFM is co-presenting this screening of....

TRAILIN’

Directed by Alfred Santell | 1921

With Tom Mix, Eva Novak, Bert Sprotte, James Gordon, Sid Jordan.

Tom Mix is mistaken for an effete easterner when he arrives in a western town in search of the man who killed his father. Then they see him ride. King of the Cowboys and his trusted steed, Tony the Wonder Horse, are joined by an equally hard-riding Eva Novak to mete out some sorely needed lessons in civility while a twisty plot about the actual parentage of Mix’s character unwinds.
Musical accompaniment by Utsav Lal.
