Silent Movie Series: The Merry Widow

Our Silent Movie Series is curated by Dennis James, our house organist. He provides live musical accompaniment on our historic Mighty Andy Crow Wurlitzer Organ—a treasure restored from 1924.

This 1925 romantic drama follows John Gilbert as dashing Prince Danillo whose love for American Follies dancer Sally O’Hara (Mae Murray) outlasts their broken engagement and her subsequent marriage to a baron. Can Prince Danillo save his homeland and finally get the girl?
See if you can spot Clark Gable as an extra!
