The
Last Silent Film Night of the Year! Saturday, March 29, 2008
at 7 pm!
Now's your chance to see what all
the buzz is about. It's an unforgettable night of laughter and
fellowship for the whole family. If you need a good laugh then
come see one of the silver screen's funniest comedic actors at
his very best.
One of Leonard Maltin's 100 must-see
films of the 20th century and the American Film Institute's 18th
greatest film of all time, Buster Keaton's "The General"
(75 min, 1926) is an historical epic of hysterical proportions!
Set during the American Civil War, our protagonist Johnnie Gray
(Keaton) is a train engineer who finds himself rejected as unfit
for military service. But when his train is comandeered by the
enemy and his girl taken hostage, he sets out to save his two
loves and ends up on a wild, not to mention hilarious, adventure!
With live music by internationally renowned accompanist Bill O'Meara,
Buster Keaton's comic masterpiece will come to life for one evening
only!
