The perfect post-Christmas treat, this promises to be an unforgettable Curzon experience.
A fantastic Keaton double bill as it was meant to be seen, with full LIVE organ accompaniment from organist and cinema history aficionado, Bernie Brown.
Sherlock Jr: “Buster Keaton’s third feature is a breathtakingly virtuosic display of every silent comedy technique imaginable, from his own formidable physical skills to some then-groundbreaking camera trickery.” A movie projectionist dreams himself into a mystery movie.
Our Hospitality: Sole heir Willie McKay (Buster Keaton) journeys by train from New York City to Kentucky to claim his fortune amid a decades-old feud with the Canfield family. En route, he meets and is smitten with young beauty Virginia (Natalie Talmadge), who invites him to dinner, but he realises too late that she is the only daughter of patriarch Joseph Canfield (Joe Roberts). The rules of hospitality protect McKay from harm in their house, but he must outwit her brothers to resolve the feud.
