Post by Brooksie » Thu Sep 16, 2010 6:49 pm

The full program is entitled `Comedies for Adults' - looks like it could be a bit of an after-party for the Silent Film Festival. The Red Rattler is a very fun venue (see http://www.redrattler.org/).

Sunday, September 26 · 6:00pm - 8:30pm

The Mystery of the Leaping Fish (1919) 21 mins
A quirky and outrageous comedy of detective ‘Coke Ennyday’; needing a fix of cocaine every 5 minutes to carry out his assignment of exposing an opium racket!

Rowdy Ann (1919) 21 mins
Rowdy Ann is a crack shot and fights like a man – even when sent to college to become a lady.

One Week (1920) 19 mins
Buster Keaton’s DIY house kit is sabotaged by his bride’s jilted lover…

Now You Tell One (1926) 22 mins
