One of the most innovative comedians in cinema history, Buster Keaton stars as a clumsy photographer who falls in love with a newsreel office secretary and accidentally gets tangled in a major news story. Widely considered to be his final masterpiece, The Cameraman was Keaton’s first movie with studio behemoth MGM and his last film with full creative control. We present this slapstick gem with a live score performed by Order of the Illusive.Order of the Illusive creates live music for moving pictures. The trio consists of guitarist Geoff Gersh, Bradford Reed on pencilina and drums, and Zach Layton on a 17-string bass.
