Lauriston Castle, 2 Cramond Rd S, Edinburgh EH4 6AD
In 1926, Lauriston Castle was bequeathed to Scotland by its last private owners, Mr. and Mrs. William Robert Reid. We're marking the centenary of the bequest with a series of special film screenings of titles both made and set in the 1920s starting with 'The General' (1926).
Co-directed by Clyde Bruckman and star Buster Keaton, this silent comedy was inspired by the true story of the Great Locomotive Chase that occurred during the American Civil War. Expect audacious set pieces and Keaton performing his own stunts as train engineer Johnnie Gray.
An Atmosphere OS production from New Media Scotland.
