“Safety Last!” (1923) is a classic silent comedy starring Harold Lloyd. It follows a young man who, seeking success and love, stages a publicity stunt to climb a skyscraper. The film’s iconic scene features Lloyd hanging from a clock face, blending thrilling stunts with slapstick humor in a timeless cinematic masterpiece.
Come see and hear what it was like to experience a silent film back in the 1920’s! Andrew Rogers will provide the soundtrack on the Temple’s 1927 Barton pipe organ. Rogers will talk briefly before the movie about the film. He will also conduct a question and answer session after the movie.
Andrew resides in Fenton, MI and is the head organist at the Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor. He travels doing theatre organ concerts, accompanying silent films, and lecturing on film scoring.
