Back in New York and California: The Great Silent Movie Comedians



Back in big screen glory - Laurel & Hardy tomorrow evening at QED in Astoria, Queens.



The following Saturday, across the country from Astoria, the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum presents Comedy Shorts Night, featuring Charlie Chaplin in The Pawnshop (1916), Buster Keaton in One Week (1920), Charley Chase in His Wooden Wedding (1925) and You’re Darn Tootin’ (1928) starring Laurel & Hardy.

A week later, on the last weekend of September, the museum shall pay tribute to the 1920's comedy headliner for Mack Sennett and First National Pictures (and later, in the 1930's, an inventive story and gag writer for Laurel & Hardy feature films) Harry "The Little Elf" Langdon.



The key word is LAUGHS!



Laughs are king and will rule the roost at the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum on the last two weekends of September!



Film buffs and comedy fans: support your purveyors of classic movie goodness!
