Dennis Nyback (1953-2022) was the former owner of the Clinton St. Theater and an internationally renowned film curator and programmer. Over his 40 year career he amassed one of the most unique and rare film collections in the United States, an archive he regularly would draw from to create one-of-a-kind film programs that screened in the Pacific Northwest and around the world. We celebrate Dennis’ legacy by doing what he did best; putting on a show and sharing some of the coolest unseen cinema projected on 16mm film! 

This free screening will be introduced by the Fried Egg Workers Union.

The second film in the Silents Synced series. The film will pair R.E.M.'s iconic albums, Monster and New Adventures in Hi Fi, with Buster Keaton's silent film, Sherlock Jr (1924).
