Casanova 1927
New Restoration!
Set in 1760s Venice and starring renowned actor Ivan Mosjoukine as the famous philanderer Giocomo Casanova in a flamboyant spectacle of romance, comedy and intrigue. Casanova enjoys a sumptuous and flirtatious existence until his precarious behaviour alerts his rivals and forces him into a life or death scenario. The hand-coloured stencil Venetian Carnival sequences have been fully restored and are glorious on screen.
This screening will utilize the newly composed and recorded orchestral score by Gunter A Buchwald.
