THE SILENT CLOWNS - THE THREE GIANTS

Charlie Chaplin     Buster Keaton     Harold Lloyd

A celebration of the three geniuses of the poetic world of silent comedy.

Three films will be shown, accompanied by Canadian pianist and silent film aficianado Bruce Vogt. He will also be providing a short introduction to each of the films.
