The Sterling Screen

Future film preservationist /archivist/historian. I love a little of everything, especially silent, horror, film noir, and pre-code. My loves are Buster Keaton, Carole Lombard, Clark Gable, Humphrey Bogart, Clara Bow, John Gilbert, Bette Davis, Marlon Brando, Marilyn Monroe, and Jean Harlow.

A classic film blog that spotlights anything to do with cinema prior to the 1970's (none of the photos I post belong to me unless stated otherwise).
My personal tumblr is fuckyeahcaitiegreen.tumblr.com
