SILENT SALON : Picnic and Silent Film with Live Organ
Summer is upon us and so is Silent Salon, our annual silent film event. Bring friends and family, make it a surprise date, or entertain guests from out of town with a true L.A. experience. Enjoy a picnic in our gorgeous, newly landscaped garden, watch the sunset over the Pacific Ocean and file into our salon for silent films with Live organ and piano accompaniment.
Ernst Lubitsch arrived in Hollywood in 1922. He was 30 years old. He soon achieved fame for his class comedies, expressing the unspeakable with a twinkle in the eye, clever editing and suggestiv dialogue making any and all attempts of censorship impossible.
The German Lubitsch is less widely known, however, his more sweeping comedic effects are well worth rediscovering
Saturday, August 18 @ 7:30 p.m.
BEFORE THE LUBITSCH TOUCH
THE MOUNTAIN CAT (Die Bergkatze)
(Germany 1921, 85 min., starring Pola Negri, Victor Janson and Paul Heidemann)
A charismatic lieutenant newly assigned to a remote fort is captured by a group of bandits, thus setting in motion a madcap farce. This is Lubitsch at his most unrestrained. (imdb)
