The theatre is very nice and downtown Massillon is a very nice area. Lots of restaurants and stores. The hotel I stayed in was very reasonable and is only a couple of blocks away from the theatre. There's even the Lillian Gish house to see, which is right up the street from the theatre. Funny, in the past four years of attending I still haven't actually gone to see the house. But, it's well worth attending. Hope you can make it. Yes, you should come. The theatre is very nice and downtown Massillon is a very nice area. Lots of restaurants and stores.

You may run into me there this year. Especially if they can get “The Forbidden City.” That sounds like a treat.

I would greatly encourage anyone who has never attended this festival, to come out and support the Great Lakes Cinephiles Society and the Cinesation festival. They always do a fantastic job of presenting a diverse and interesting collection of rare early Hollywood films with a balance of both silents and talkies. What I really enjoy about it is the relaxed, genial, Midwestern feel and the genuine friendliness of the attendees. It's a great time and a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a weekend filled with rare and obscure Hollywood gems. So come on out and support this wonderful group of people. No, I'm not a spokesperson for The Great Lakes Cinephiles society. Just a happy attendee. I’ve gone to this festival for the past four years and am eagerly looking forward to my fifth.
