This aim of this chapter is to outline the extraordinary contribution of Elvira Coda and Nicola Notari and their company Dora-Film to the silent movie era in Italy. Our brief review will focus on the excellent restoration of “’A santanotte”, one of the first colorized movie productions to emerge from Italian color movie culture, as well as on other films produced by Dora-Film in Naples in the early 1900s. Thanks to her personal interpretation and the application of hand colouring techniques, Elvira endowed Italian cinema with a female expressive perspective.
