Midweek Cinema: The Crowd

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

King Vidor Season A film starring
Eleanor Boardman James Murray
'The Crowd laughs with you always but it will cry with you only for a day.'
One of the greatest of Hollywood silent films. The Crowd chronicles the happy and the many not-so-happy days in the marriage of an American couple in New York during the depression years. Made nearly 50 years ago, its realism remains powerful and relevant.
The music to accompany tonight's presentation has been specially selected by CAREY BLYTON.
Screenplay by KING VIDOR and JOHN V. A. WEAVER
