Not-So-Silent-Cinema, Jarvis Conservatory

Two classic silent films with newly composed live music.
An Echo in the Vineyards event.

Two classic silent films with original music by Stephen Prutsman, performed by festival musicians, recreate the cinema experience of 100 years ago before recorded sound was integrated into filmmaking. The main attraction is a Buster Keaton classic, College, preceded by The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, a horror film, considered the quintessential work of German Expressionist cinema.

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920)
