Audience dry, Actor, Director Buster Keaton wet at local Cemetery Cinema
By Sue Hunter Weir It was touch and go all day on Saturday. Would it rain or not? In the end it turned out to be a beautiful evening. Sweater weather but no umbrellas needed! More than 250 people enjoyed “The Navigator,” a 1924 Buster Keaton silent film. The amazing Dreamland Faces played an hour-long live soundtrack that captured Keaton”'s slapstick perfectly. We hope to have them back again next year for what is shaping up to be a new tradition in pioneers and Soldiers Cemetery. In addition to the film, Taco Taxi was on hand with their great food and a number of visitors arrived early and went on a new version of the Smartphone History Hunt. If you haven”'t had a chance to try it, we”'ll set it up again for the fall showings, and we will be participating in Open Streets on August 2 from 11 to 4. Stop in and get a dose of history.
