SUMMARY:Nosferatu x Radiohead – Silent Synced at The Jackson Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Nosferatu x Radiohead – Silent SyncedOctober 23 — 7:00 PMNosferatu (1922) with Radiohead – A Silent Synced Production\nSpeakeasy Cinema\nPay What You Can\nSpeakeasy Cinema Series – Doors open at 6 pm\, movie at 7pm\nJazz Music\, Specialty Craft Cocktails (and Mocktails) for purchase\nalong with our full selection of beverages at the concession stand.\nComplimentary light bites will we available.\nSilents Synced pairs classic silent movies with epic rock music soundtracks. This presentation of Nosferatu (1922) features Radiohead’s Kid A and Amnesiac albums.\nAn unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula\, Nosferatu (1922) is the quintessential silent vampire film\, crafted by legendary German director F. W. Murnau. Rather than depicting Dracula as a shape-shifting monster or debonair gentleman\, Murnau’s Graf Orlok (as portrayed by Max Schreck) is a nightmarish\, spidery creature of bulbous head and taloned claws — perhaps the most genuinely disturbing incarnation of vampirism yet envisioned.\nAbout the filmmaker:\nW. Murnau was an influential German expressionist director\, producer and screenwriter who crafted a total of 21 films\, only 12 of which survived in their entirety. A master of light and shadow\, Murnau experimented with new filming techniques\, negative exposure\, stop-motion\, and low angle camera positions. His adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula\, Nosferatu (1922)\, is considered a masterpiece of German Expressionist cinema.\nNot Rated\nRunning Time 94 mintues

The brothers grew up singing gospel music while listening to James Blackwood and the Blackwood Brothers\, Hovie Lister\, and The Statesmen Quartet as well other accomplished gospel artists. As children the brothers would sing for anyone who would listen. Soon they were singing from coast to coast and appeared at the World’s Fair in 1964 in New York City. They recorded four Gospel records early in their career. In 1966\, Larry went to college at the University of Houston where he studied English and Law. In 1971\, he auditioned for The Imperials\, Elvis’ backup group. While he did not get the job\, he met Dottie West\, who was the opening act for Jimmy Dean. Dean would later become one of Larry’s oldest and dearest friends. Dottie was initially taken with Larry’s resemblance to Nashville songwriter Mickey Newbury. She told him one night in Las Vegas that he looked so much like Mickey\, he had to be able to write great songs too. Encouraged\, Larry returned to Houston\, wrote eight songs\, and sent them to Dottie. She liked them so much she sent him a plane ticket to Nashville.\nThrough Dottie’s friendship\, Larry met Kris Kristofferson\, who championed his talents as a writer and singer. Kristofferson’s introduction to Fred Foster at Monument Records resulted in a recording contract with the label. Larry’s first album\, The Pilgrim\, was released later that year. Johnny Cash wrote the liner notes for the album and dubbed him “The Pilgrim”\, a name he called him the rest of his life. At this time Steve and Rudy were still in college at Texas Tech University\, but by 1975 they moved to Nashville to join Larry to form the group as we know it today.\nThe brothers still perform approximately 40 road concert dates a year as well as 30 performances at the famed Grand Ole’ Opry. They are also in the planning stages of recording some new music. “We are blessed that fans still love our music & attend our shows” says Steve & “we hope to continue as long as that’s the case.”\n\nAwards\, Television Shows & Venues\n1964 World’s Fair New York City\, New York / Hee-Haw / Hee-Haw Honeys\nHuckabee TV Show / The Barbara Mandrel Show / The Merv Griffith Show\nThe Mike Douglas Show / Gatlin Brothers ABC Special / Solid Gold TV Show\nThe Dinah Shore Show / John Davidson TV Show / SALUTE with Dick Clark\nJohnny Cash Special / Crook & Chase Show / Midnight Special with Wolfman Jack\nLove Boat / Marty Stuart TV Show / Larry’s Country Diner\nJason Crabb TV Show / Pop Goes the County / Marty Robbins TV Show / Ralph Emory TV Show\nTommy Hunter TV Show (Canada) / Bill Gaither Videos / Carnegie Hall (New York)\nAT&T Stadium (Dallas) / Wembley Stadium (London) / Death Valley (Clemson University)\nSuper Dome (New Orleans) / Madison Square Garden (New York) / Pontiac Silverdome (Pontiac)\nAstrodome (Houston) / Reliant Field (Houston)\nNissan Stadium (Titans Nashville) / Yankee Stadium (New York)\nRose Bowl (Pasadena\, CA) / Candlestick Park (San Francisco) / Forum (Los Angeles)\nRyman Auditorium (Nashville)\nGrand Ole Opry House (Nashville) / 48 years members of Grand Ole Opry\nPerformed for 8 U.S. PRESIDENTS
