📽️This stream's featured flick is a silent drama from 1925, Head Winds, starring Patsy Ruth Miller and House Peters. *There's a weird Jack Nicolson-par-Joker moment in one of the scenes, and now I'm curious if this movie borrowed it from somewhere else or it is the main reference for Tim Burton's 1989 Batman? Pay attention to the film at ~1:05:56 and lmk what you think.

⏯ After every stream, the film is dropped into the Featured Flicks Archive playlist. You can watch the movie on its own from the playlist or by clicking the poster above. There is a wiki and link to the corresponding VOD in the description box of each video. See also: a log of previous featured flicks on Letterboxd.
