Alfred Hitchcock's BLACKMAIL
- 12 years ago
Wed Dec 7th & Thu Dec 8 10:15 @ Nitehawk Cinema
CLASSIC HITCHCOCK: The lovely young fiance of a Scotland Yard detective decides to sow a few oats before marrying. A liaison with an artist in his studio leads to sexual assault, murder, deception and BLACKMAIL.
This film was Hitchcock's last silent film... and his first talking film. We are showing this film as it was meant to be seen: THE RARE SILENT VERSION. All the Hitchcock style hallmarks are here, including the longest Hitchcock cameo appearance in his filmography.
SILENT FILM and LOUD MUSIC: Live Score and Cinema Soundscape by Hayes Greenfield and the Eclectic Electric film/music event. Hayes Greenfield is an award-winning film composer and musician living and working in New York City for over 30 years. As a film composer, Hayes has scored more than 60 films, documentaries, commercials, and TV specials. Many have received awards, including the prestigious Emmy and Telly. As performer/saxophonist, Hayes has released 10 critically acclaimed CD's and toured throughout the US, Canada, and Europe with his own bands. Hayes' Eclectic Electric marries his extensive musical stylistic history of composition, film, improvisation, sound design, acoustic and electronic instruments and effects into a groundbreaking aural cornucopia that pushes the envelope of silent film and interpretive music and sound.
