Episode Details

Step back in time to 1926 as Cleveland screens the haunting, emotionally charged silent film “The Scarlet Letter,” directed by Victor Sjöström and starring Lillian Gish — their first major collaboration, and widely regarded as the finest adaptation of Hawthorne’s novel. This special screening, part of Ohio Goes to the Movies, features a live original score by the Cleveland Photoplayers, blending music from Cleveland-born composer John Stepan Zamecnik to heighten every dramatic moment. The event kicks off at 2 p.m. with a reception and talk by silent film expert Jonah Horwitz, followed by the film at 3 p.m., and concludes with a musician panel. All free admission — don’t miss this immersive, historically rich cinematic experience.
