In this episode, Ben and Kerr talk about: Ben’s accompanying a rare Reginald Denny feature, sight-unseen, at Capitolfest 21; the rediscovery of “The Gorilla” (1927) and accompanying it on both piano and on theatre organ; Ben tries a new approach to underscoring the house-fall in Buster Keaton’s “Steamboat Bill, Jr.” (1928); the challenges and concerns in approaching the live-scoring of sound-era films like the 1931 “Dracula” and “Frankenstein”; Ben’s accompanying of “Her Wild Oat” (1927) starring Colleen Moore, and his initiative to renew interest in the 2010’s restoration of this film.
