As The Earth Turns is a 1938 American independent, science-fiction and silent film directed by Richard Lyford. Lyford was age 20 when he directed As the Earth Turns, and the film is one of many avant-garde films that he made in Seattle, Washington, before finding success with Walt Disney in the 1940s. <br><br>He portrays Pax, a central character in the film, "who attempts to persuade the world to put down its weapons by inducing extreme climate change".<br><br>Like most of Lyford's early films, it was presumed lost until it was discovered in his former Seattle home over 80 years later. KING-TV reported that the film may have never left Lyford's basement, which he would use as an auditorium to show his films. As the Earth Turns made its theatrical premiere at the Seattle International Film Festival in 2019. <br><br>Live piano accompaniment by Mia Fitzgerald.<br><br>Doors and Wine Bar open from 7:30 PM<br><br>RATED: PG | TIME: 60 minutes<br><br>SELECT ONE OPTION:<br>1.
