Come On Over (Green, 1920): Barbican Cinema, 4pm
At a special screening to mark St Patrick’s Day, the Barbican present Alfred E Green’s story of the feisty Moyna Killilea (Colleeen Moore), who travels across the sea from Lisdoonvarna to follow her sweetheart (Ralph Graves) to a New York boarding house.
A
series of misunderstandings and adventures ensue, featuring high
society dames, a formidable landlady, Irish cops and drunken layabouts,
all climaxing at a ceilidh.
With a cast full of lively characters, this riotous comedy Irish gem has not been seen before in UK cinemas.
There will be a live piano accompaniment by John Sweeney
