Thursday and Friday ,November 7th & 8th at 7:30 pm. Don’t miss Janet Gaynor Academy Award Winner for “Best Actress” and Charles Ferrell in a Great Love Story “STREET ANGEL”. BLAINE GALE provides a wonderful live score on the mighty Wurlitzer Theater Pipe Organ.
Two time Academy Award winning director Frank Borzage was born in
Two time Academy Award winning director Frank Borzage was born inSalt Lake City and began as an actor in silent movies before moving behind the camera
to become the very first director to be given an Oscar for his 1927 “7TH HEAVEN” which
teamed JANET GAYNOR and CHARLES FARRELL together for the first time. In 1928
the same three teamed up for “STREET ANGEL” which we are honored to present on
Thursday and Friday, November 7 & 8th with BLAINE GALE providing a romantic setting
on the WURLITZLER THEATRE PIPE ORGAN.
Frank Borzage’s “Street Angel” was one of three films that earned Janet Gaynor the
very first Best Actress Oscar. Gaynor stars as Angela, a poor waif who steals medicine
for her sick mother and hides out from the law by joining a traveling carnival. A painter
(Charles Farrell) becomes smitten by her and does her portrait as the Madonna. Borzage
directs this ultimate potent and moving love story with great skill. The cinematography
of “Street Angel” ranks as some of most beautiful and artistic ever captured on film.
“Street Angel” is a universal tale of “human souls made great by love and adversity”—
Exactly the subject matter which earned Borzage his reputation as a poet of the
Working class.
If you care for great love stories beautifully told, then this is a rare opportunity to see
one one the greatest of all-time. 1928 was a magnificent year for the art of the silent
film and “STREET ANGEL” ranks as one of the most artistic films that we have ever
had the pleasure to offer.

COMEDY CLASSIC SERIES CONTINUES
At Edison St/THE ORGAN LOFT as
MADBEL NORMAND LIGHTS UP THE
SCREEN January 23rd & 24th at 7:30pm
Mabel Normand was one of the comedy greats of early film.
In an era when women were deemed ’not funny enough’ it
seems film history has forgotten her contributions. Her films
debuted the Keystone Cops, Charlie Chaplin’s tramp and the
pie in the face gag. Mabel co-starred with all the early greats.
She was the only comedian to work with Charlie Chaplin,
Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle, Mack Sennett, D.W. Griffith, Harold
Lloyd, Mary Pickford, Hal Roach, Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, etc.
About the only one that she didn’t have a chance to work with
was Buster Keaton.
When Mack Sennett’s Keystone Comedies began all of
Sennett’s early ideas seemed to revolve around Normand. By
1912 Normand was writing her own films and by 1914 she was
directing her films. She was one of the stars of the very first
full length comedy, TILLIE’S PUNCTURED ROMANCE along
with Marie Dressler, Charlie Chaplin and Mack Swain.
Mabel Normand’s popularity led her to producing and
starring in a number of feature-length comedies that included
“The EXTRA GIRL”
In this 1923 comedy Mabel Norman plays a small town girl
who wants to be a motion picture star. She wins a contract
when a photo of a very pretty girl is sent tot he studio instead
of her picture. When she arrives in Hollywood the fun begins!

Thursday and Friday , February 6th & 7th at 7:30 pm. Grab your sweetheart and come experience the perfect Valentine Movie.
Harold LLoyd in “GIRL SHY”.
Edison St/The Organ Loft audiences are in for a realtreat as Harold Lloyd joins with Jobyna Ralston in theperfect pre-Valentine comedy “GIRL SHY”. Harold Lloyd is best known for his physical comedyand his daredevil “thrill pictures”, and for good reason. Just as important a part of his appeal, though, is that there is often a genuine sweetness to his movies, and a great deal of chemistry with his leading ladies. Most slapstick comedies from this period have a girl for love interest, but it’s perfunctory. With “Girl Shy”, though Harold Lloyd makes a romantic comedy worthy of the title as well as providing more thrills then the Ben-Hur chariot race.
With BLAINE GALE at the WURLITZER THEATRE PIPE ORGAN this is one film not to be missed!

March 12th & 13th at 7:30 pm. You are going to Laugh Laugh Laugh to Harry Langdon in “Tramp Tramp Tramp. Blaine Gale with live accompaniment on the Mighty Wurlitzer.
The comedy line-up continues at Edison St/The Organ Loft with BLAINE GALE at the keyboard of the Mighty Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ as HARRY LANGDON brings laughter to the screen as he seeks to win the heart of his dream girl, JOAN CRAWFORD by entering a race, hoping for the $25,000 grand prize and to put a ring on the girl. For a time HARRY LANGDON ranked in popularity that threatened
to top Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd & Buster Keaton. Langdon’s wide-eyed innocence, sleepy smile, and surreal pathos probably had a longer lasting latent influence than most of the silent clowns. Stan Laurel, Jacques Tati, Steve Martin, Andy Kaufman, and Paul Ruebens are among those indebted to Langdon’s screen persona.
In TRAMP, TRAMP, TRAMP Harry falls in love with the girl on the billboard (Joan Crawford) for Brandon shoes and enters a cross country walking race to win the prize. This is a charming and engaging comedy that is a perfect introduction to one of the great forgotten clowns.
