SUMMARY:Classic Movies at the Opera House: Silent Movie (1976)
DESCRIPTION:Join us on June 26\, 2026 at 7:00 PM at the Sarasota Opera House for a special screening of Silent Movie (1976)\, Mel Brooks' hilarious and inventive dialogue free slapstick comedy.\n\nIn this classic comedy\, film director Mel Funn\, played by Mel Brooks\, travels to the ailing Big Picture Studios to pitch his comeback film\, the first feature length silent movie in many years. Desperate for a hit\, the studio chief\, played by Sid Caesar\, gives Funn and his eccentric partners\, Eggs played by Marty Feldman and Bell played by Dom DeLuise\, the green light\, but only if they can convince major celebrities to appear in it.\n\nWhat follows is an outrageous cross country adventure as Funn and his crew attempt to secure a lineup of superstar talent\, leading to a series of comedic misadventures\, physical humor\, and unforgettable moments. Staying true to the spirit of silent era filmmaking\, the movie relies on visual comedy and slapstick rather than dialogue\, creating a unique and timeless cinematic experience.\n\nDirected by Mel Brooks\, Silent Movie is a loving tribute to classic Hollywood and the golden age of silent film\, blending parody with nostalgia. With a runtime of 1 hour and 26 minutes\, it is an accessible and entertaining event for fans of classic cinema\, comedy\, and film history.\n\nExperience this one of a kind comedy on the big screen at the Sarasota Opera House and enjoy an evening of laughter\, creativity\, and classic slapstick entertainment.
