Garras De Oro
''Garras de oro'' (''Golden Claws''), also known as ''Alborada de justicia'' (''Dawn of Justice''), is a 1927 Colombian silent film. Background The direction of the film is credited to "P.P. Jambrina", which was a pseudonym used by Alfonso Martínez Velasco, who became mayor of Cali between September 1930 to September 1931. The film is a fierce critique of Latin America–United States relations, United States policy towards Latin America, focusing in particular on the United States' backing of Panamanian separatists that led to the Separation of Panama from Colombia, partition of the former Isthmus Department from Colombia. The film's opening intertitle reads: "This film-novel is to protect from the oblivion of memory an important episode in modern history, which by fortune became the first stone in a landslide that tore apart our Coat of arms of Colombia, coat of arms and battered our eagles." It is believed that all actors and staff involved in the film employed pseudonyms i ...

The term "silent film" is something of a misnomer, as these films were almost always accompanied by live sounds. During the silent era that existed from the mid-1890s to the late 1920s, a piano, pianist, theatre organ, theater organist—or even, in large cities, a small orchestra—would often play music to accompany the films. Pianists and organists would play either from sheet music, or musical improvisation, improvisation. Sometimes a person would even narrate the inter-title cards for the audience. Though at the time the technology to synchronize sound with the film did not exist, music was seen as an essential part of the viewing experie ...
