Our Film Series presents Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (F.W. Murnau, 1927).

A romantic drama starring George O'Brien, Janet Gaynor, and Margaret Livingston. A married farmer falls for a woman vacationing from the city, who tries to convince him to murder his wife so they can be together. Though the film has no audible dialogue, it was released with a synchronized musical score and sound effects. It is now widely considered by critics and historians to be one of the greatest films ever made.

Each showing includes a discussion with University of Washington film historian Lance Rhoades.

Free to attend; space is limited. To RSVP, email newcastlewaarts@gmail.com with "film series" and the date of the film in the subject line, plus your name and the number of people in your party.
