Pick of the Day: Buster Keaton Festival (near LA) 1/6
The Marx Brothers always get plenty of play during the turn of the year, but, if you’re in the mode for black and white film comedy that still stands the test of time, you best not forget about comedy/filmmaking legend and pioneer Buster Keaton. His daring stunts made for some of the most enduring images of comedy at the outset of moving pictures and are still astounding by today’s standards.
Fortunately, for Angelenos, an entire Buster Keaton Festival has been created that will celebrate Keaton’s memory at El Segundo’s Old Town Music Hall. Not only will you get to joyfully run through Buster’s filmography, but it will be live accompanies by Old Town Music Hall’s beautiful Mighty Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ, played by Mark Herman.
This very special silent film festival is slated for Sat. Jan. 6th at 2:30PM will only run you $20. Please go get tix here.
