Not So Silent Cinema: 'Sherlock Junior' ~ Highgate, London

  • St Anne's Church Highgate London, London N6 6AP United Kingdom (map)

A rare opportunity to experience a 1920s classic silent comedy film with a live score

A rare opportunity to experience the classic Buster Keaton silent comedy Sherlock Junior with a live score, 100 years on from its release. Named by Time magazine as one of the All-Time 100 Movies, Sherlock Junior (1924) stars Keaton as a cinema projectionist who moonlights as an amateur detective. Keaton’s trademark physical comedy is soundtracked by a piano quintet score composed especially for the film, in charming 1920s style, by LA-born composer and Tchaikovsky Competition prize-winning pianist Stephen Prutsman. Film lasts 45 minutes and is rated U.
