Silents Synced pairs classic silent movies with epic rock music. This is the second film of the Silents Synced series and will feature R.E.M.’s MONSTER (1994) / NEW ADVENTURES IN HI-FI (1996), paired with Buster Keaton’s SHERLOCK JR.
In this sublime comedy teetering between reality and illusion, projectionist Buster Keaton dreams himself into the detective movie he’s screening. Keaton reportedly broke his neck performing one of the many dangerous practical stunts in the film.
Special Program Note: Buster Keaton’s short film THE BALLOONATIC plays as part of this program, featuring music by Amon Tobin.
