Screening | Silent Film Showcase: Circus Clowns (1922), Go West (1923), It's the Cats (1926) and The Lion's Whiskers (1925)
Silent Clowns, New York's longest-running regularly scheduled silent film showcase hosts an afternoon of hoots and hijinks! Presenting the silent comedies of Chaplin, Keaton, Laurel & Hardy, Lloyd, and many others, all with live musical accompaniment by renowned silent-film accompanist Ben Model. Every program features a spoken introduction and Q&A by film historians Steve Massa and Model. For classic-film fans young and old alike! Animals were very popular in silent films because the lack of sound made it easy for trainers to instruct the bestial Barrymores and put them through their paces on camera. Some frugal producers were able to develop stars without egos who would literally work for peanuts. For this selection of comedy critters we have Brownie the Wonder Dog, Numa the lion, and the Dippy-Doo-Dads in Circus Clowns (1922), Go West (1923), It's the Cats (1926) and The Lion's Whiskers (1925).
