Pandora's Box, the sensational 1929 film starring Louise Brooks, is set to screen in Chicago, Illinois on April 3, 2018. The movie will be accompanied live by Jay Warren, Chicago's foremost
pipe organ expert, on the classically restored 3/16 Marr Colton / Geneva
Arcada organ.
The film will be shown at the Arcada Theatre, 105 E. Main St. in St. Charles, as part of its continuing "Silent Film Night" series featuring silent film classics. More information about the event can be found HERE.
The theater kicks off the series with a Halloween season screening of the F.W. Murnau horror film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922), starring Max Schreck, Greta Schroder and Gustav Von Wangenheim, on October 16th.

On November 7, the Douglas Fairbanks adventure film The Mark of Zorro (1920) will be shown. It will be
followed on December 5 by Charlie Chaplin's early comedy Tillie's
Punctured Romance (1914), with Mabel Normand and Marie Dressler.
Next year, on January
9, the 1916 film based on Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under
the Sea, the first movie filmed underwater, will be shown. It will be followed by
Rudolph Valentino's romantic drama The Sheik (1921) on February 6, Lon
Chaney's crime drama The Penalty (1920) on March 6, and the German
melodrama Pandora's Box (1929), featuring Louise Brooks, April 3. The film
series is held select Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m.
As Louise Brooks once lived in Chicago (briefly), and as the Arcada Theatre sells German pretzels, beer and brats, this promised to be a fun event.
