Overview

Ever wondered what going to the movies was like almost a century ago? You might not be able to travel back in time to find out, but every second Friday evening you can do the next best thing at Kristian Fletcher's Roaring Twenties Cinema program.

Each fortnight, one of Brisbane's premier and most passionate purveyors of cult and retrospective cinema will transform Paddington Hall into a picture palace of old. Well, the choice of silent film will do that, as accompanied by a live musical score — and then there's the ample use of your own imagination, of course.

The lineup kicks off on September 4 via the classic everyone must see, with Charlie Chaplin at his best in his early hit The Kid. Then, revel in the expressive glory of actress Mary Duncan in City Girl two weeks later, and keep checking the event's Facebook page for future blast-from-the-past movie choices.
