Faded Silk and Ghosts is dedicated to the old and beautiful cinema of Japan. I hope I can show the youtube community the art once strived for by film industry rather than to turn a profit. It is also born out of my love especially for old Japan and her stories of the past, of war, of ghosts and gods, and of mere daily life. I feel there is something rather special about Japan's old movies that I have not seen elsewhere, they conjure up a very magical and eerie world that captivates.
About Me:
 
I am merely a girl who fell in love with old world Japan. The Heian era is my favorite time period.

PLEASE NOTE: I used to operate under the channel named BloodyMissB. That account was unfortunately closed and I am working on this one now. I probably will not be able to upload old titles, but some movies found on that account included:

-100 Tales of Horror
-Kaidan
-With Beauty and Sorrow
-the drama Life
-Genji:A Thousand Year Love
-etc.
Hometown:
Heian-kyo
Country:
United States
Occupation:
Noble woman
Interests:
Everything
Movies:
Old Japanese cinema of course and all asian horror movies past and present. I love, love, love Asian and all foreign cinema. I do not like modern American movies at all.
Books:
I love books and reading. I will read just about anything, all books have something you can learn.

Dear Friend, FadedSilkandGhosts,
You share the same passion as I do.
I haven't found anyone yet that appreciates
the Old world movies as I do. I have the greatest collection
of Old Japan films. I too, do not like modern films at all.
I hope to share with you and become a friend...
Blessings to you always...

The problem with that is that nobody would even know your ideas existed unless you put the time into it. You can say "It shares ideas!" but it won't help when nobody watches or listens.

It's why people charge $50 to do funny charactatures or compete in contests in music and arts, their art has value, and they know it. They can totally give their things away but it doesn't fill the void of lost time, effort, and creativity. Only the publishers, producers, etc. decide the worth in the media however.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear that your previous channel closed, although the name of your new one prompted me to have a look. I love Kwaidan. My favourite was probably the story about Hoichi the Earless. I think old school Japanese horror is gold. I'm also interested in a lot of other cinema. (There are some good American films - for instance, The Station Agent - but I agree, they can be hard to find.) I would love to have an opportunity to chat about good films with people as I don't know many people - well, anyone, really - who shares my taste, although usually there is some overlap at some point or another.
Art might not make money, but it can give you a reason to live, and money won't always do that. ^^

It's from an imageboard, those aren't like forums were they are archived.

Some comment of yours that was screencapped about mainstream music being bad and everybody mocking it due to the amount of underground crap there is.

ART DOESN'T MAKE MONEY.
