NEW YORK - Martin Scorsese’s “Silence,” a historical drama about faith in feudal Japan, will open in time to qualify for the Academy Awards. Paramount Pictures said Monday that “Silence” will open in limited release Dec. 23 with a nationwide expansion to follow sometime in January. Whether the film, a decadeslon­g passion project for Scorsese, would be ready in time for release this year had been a major question mark in Hollywood’s awards season.
