FPC Concert Series presents: Westminster Orchestra, "Jupiter & Beyond"

“The Phantom of the Moulin Rouge” was the first feature-length film that René Clair directed. A somewhat messy mix of melodrama and fantasy, this early work of Clair offers scattered humor and eccentricity. The lively sequence in the Moulin-Rouge captures the decadence and joie-de-vivre of the era brilliantly. The film will be presented in the style of the era, accompanied live on the organ with original scoring by the artist. Free event, no advanced reservations required. All are welcome.
