DESCRIPTION:How many can say they've seen the movie\, "The House of the Seven Gables\," at The House of the Seven Gables? If not\, the time has come to remedy that gaping lapse in hipness.

This community film series runs from August 1 through October 4. Showtime is 6:30 p.m. Those who purchase a POP!

Here's what the prolific movie blogger Jeffrey Anderson\, Combustible Celluloid\, wrote in 2018: "Though ghosts are at the edges of the story\, and though Price has one of the darkest and most commanding roles of his early years (he was usually a milquetoast)\, this is not exactly a horror movie. It is about greed and evil\, though\, and the way that greedy and horrible men inevitably ascend to power\, and it's about delicious revenge." 3 out of 4 stars Bonus: A showing of Vincent Price's 1990 half-hour narrated tour of The House of the Seven Gables will kick off the evening's tribute to Hawthorne in Hollywood.\n\n\n\nFriday\, October 4 at 6:30 p.m. The Scarlet Letter (1926) The great Swedish director Victor Sj str m delivered his silent film interpretation of Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter" in 1926\, two years before the director's most celebrated film\, "The Wind" considered by many to be among the greatest silent films ever made. "Movie Classics" blog maintains that Sj str m's "Scarlet Letter" is also a silent film masterpiece. He used Frances Marion\, screenwriter\, and Lillian Gish and Lars Hanson\, starring actors\, in both movies. The Gables will honor this silent film with a special piano accompaniment by Peter Krasinski. After the film\, Nancy Schultz\, professor of English at Salem State University\, will lead a conversation with the audience.
