Bristol Film Festival: The Navigator and Sherlock Jr. at St Mary Redcliffe (with Live Music)
About
In April, audiences are invited to immerse themselves in cinematic history with a special centenary double bill screening at St Mary Redcliffe. Celebrating the timeless genius of filmmaker and performer Buster Keaton, the event promises an unforgettable experience against the backdrop of this magnificent venue.
As dusk descends, attendees will gather to witness two masterpieces from Keaton's illustrious repertoire: the satirical nautical escapade "The Navigator" and the groundbreaking "Sherlock Jr." Both films mark their 100th anniversary this year, and their screening in this historic setting adds a layer of grandeur to the occasion.
Adding to the magic of the evening is a truly unique musical performance. Dr. David Bednall, an award-winning composer, will deliver an entirely improvised organ recital, blending live music with silent cinema in a manner that promises to mesmerize. His spontaneous compositions will breathe new life into Keaton's timeless capers, creating a multi-dimensional experience that honors the legacy of these iconic films a century since they first captivated audiences.
