Just heard named a song after 1920s actor Clara Bow.

If you want to see the real Clara Bow in action, check out the Oscar-winning war/romance/adventure film "Wings". I've edited a modern soundtrack for it from creative commons music:

It was made 97 years ago but has an astonishing level of realism that will never be seen again (the actors were flying the planes! 😮).

Everything in it is real, no effects of any kind. No miniatures, no stock footage, no rear screen projection, no matte paintings, no greenscreen, no CGI. Just massive amounts of brave people risking their lives.

"The Phantom of the Opera" (1925) is a classic silent film with a strong Gothic horror romance theme.

Unfortunately there's no public domain score, so I've edited a new libre soundtrack for the film from existing Creative Commons and public domain music. You can watch this new version at:

Also, in case you missed it, I did a similar thing for the Oscar-winning war/romance film "Wings" (1927):
