About this Event
Amnesiascope presents Tod Browning's silent masterpiece THE UNKNOWN via the music of Bob Dylan. Since its release in 1927, THE UNKNOWN has been subject to merciless edits and paltry musical accompaniment. The fullest surviving version of the Lon Chaney horror picture is here presented in a radical reimagining, Dylan's music—from fan favorites to his deepest cuts—expanding Browning's vision: in conversation with, juxtaposing, and contradicting the tale of a carnival performer (Chaney) and his merciless attempt to win the heart of a fellow star (Joan Crawford). Tuesday, October 14 may be the only time this version of the film is ever presented—a profoundly rare opportunity to experience Browning's feature in such conditions.
