Silent Movies

 Our church has a music series generously endowed by a late member. Friday night the program was two silent movies with organ accompaniment. 


The first was this one, a very funny Buster Keaton. The organist is behind the screen and improvised the music while watching his iPad. 


Here’s part of his introduction before the first movie. 


The second movie was much longer - The Hunchback of Notre Dame with Lon Chaney. Another movie we’d never seen. 

It was a great evening of movies over 100 years old.
