Someone once said “silent films were never silent.” It’s true. There was music played on the set when films were being made. Sometimes, there was music depicted in films themselves (even though it couldn’t be heard). Some silent films had a theme song. And almost always, music was played when the silent films were shown. The silent era, and its stars, were anything but silent.
