The latest in our series of silent films accompanied by live piano.
Keaton is one of the most iconic stars of the silent era, and this is one of his most memorable feature comedies. 'Old Stoneface', who scripted and directed the film, presents a film full of great gags, superb timing and impressive stunts. And it treats characters and situations with real style: the staging, camerawork and editing all contribute to the tale. A tale of feuding families in the old south replete with romance, comic confusions, threatening situations and breathtaking escapes.
Live piano accompaniment by Darius Battiwalla, introduction by Keith Withall
