People attend a projection of the Danish silent movie "The Mannequins" accompanied by a live accordion performance, at the Cinema Museum, in London, on November 9, 2024. The black and white silent movie flickered into life as the pianist started up with a dramatic flourish. Cue the latest exploits of daring master criminal "Three-Fingered Kate". Nearly a century after the first "talkies" displaced silent movies for good, London enthusiasts still gather regularly to celebrate these largely forgotten works from the dawn of cinema.
