Our 3rd annual celebration of classic silent films is accompanied by newly composed music written by Stephen Prutsman and played by festival musicians, in the ideal venue, the Jarvis Conservatory theater. Buster Keaton’s One Week is the hilarious story of a newlywed couple that orders a prefab house from the Sears Catalog that could allegedly be built in one week, while Mighty Like a Moose written by Charley Chase is routinely listed among the greatest of all silent comedy shorts.
Cupid in Quarantine (1918)
