Sonic
Cinema: Buster Keaton’s The General with live score
by
Relache
The
General
dir.
Clyde Bruckman and Buster Keaton, USA, 1927, DVD, 80 mins, b/w,
silent with English intertitles and live score
Considered
by critics as one of the greatest comedies of all time, The
General is Buster Keaton’s fast-paced
tour de force. Pitted between the love for his locomotive and
his sweetheart, Johnnie embarks on the craziest train ride in
film.
Relache
will test their mettle as they perform a self-composed score
full of the daring improvisation that put them on the map. This
multisensory extravaganza is sure to be a highlight of the Spring
season.
