The Black
Pirate with Live Score

Part of Silent Sundays at The Heights Theater, this screening of the 1926 Douglas Fairbanks adventure The Black Pirate is accompanied by a live score. The Poor Nobodys perform their original score with special guest musicians. In the film, a nobleman vows to avenge the death of his father at the hands of pirates. He infiltrates the pirate band and, acting in character, single-handedly captures a merchant vessel, but matters grow complicated when he finds a beautiful young woman of royal blood aboard.
