USA 1926 | Buster Keaton, Clyde Bruckman | intertitles EN, French subtitles | 79' | digital | Cast : Buster Keaton, Marion Mack, Charles Smith | EA
🇬🇧 When Union spies steal both his locomotive and the woman he loves, railroad engineer Johnnie Gray sets off in hot pursuit. Blending breathtaking stunts, perfect comic timing, and astonishing technical virtuosity, Buster Keaton’s masterpiece remains one of the most exhilarating and inventive films ever made.
« In these times when all risk is assumed by CGI effects, Keaton's squealing funny, exquisitely timed, death-defying leaps are all the more breathtaking. » (The Times)
Oᴘᴇɴ Aɪʀ Lɪᴠᴇ with piano accompaniment by Hughes Maréchal 🎹
Experience the timeless genius of Buster Keaton with live accompaniment by maestro Hughes Maréchal. A unique opportunity to rediscover this classic as audiences did in the golden age of silent cinema, when live music brought every image to life.
🇫🇷 Lorsque des espions nordistes s’emparent de sa locomotive et de la femme qu’il aime, le mécanicien Johnnie Gray se lance à leur poursuite. Cascades vertigineuses, gags d’une précision folle et sens du spectacle inégalé : Buster Keaton livre un chef-d’œuvre du cinéma muet, parmi les films les plus inventifs jamais réalisés.
« 'The General', en plus d'être l'exemple le plus abouti de l'esthétique du cinéaste Keaton, est l'un des plus beaux films du monde, c'est bête à claironner mais pourtant incontestable. » (Chronic’art)
Oᴘᴇɴ Aɪʀ Lɪᴠᴇ avec accompagnement au piano par Hughes Maréchal 🎹
Vivez le génie intemporel de Buster Keaton avec un accompagnement en direct par le maestro Hughes Maréchal. Une occasion unique de redécouvrir ce classique comme le vivaient les spectateurs à l’âge d’or du cinéma muet, lorsque la musique donnait vie à chaque image.
