ORIGINAL “ZORRO” TO SCREEN WITH at 6:30pm


LIVE MUSIC AT FLYING MONKEY Thursday, May 17th


It was the original swashbuckling


blockbuster—the film that first brought “Zorro” to the big screen, and also turned actor Douglas Fairbanks into Hollywood’s first-ever action hero. “The Mark of Zorro” (1920) will once again fill the silver screen, accompanied by live music on Thursday, May 17 at 6:30pm at the Flying Monkey Moviehouse and Performance Center in Plymouth. Admission is $10 per person. “The Mark of Zorro,” a major hit when


first released, tells the story of young Don Diego Vega, the outwardly timid son of a wealthy ranch owner in Spanish Califor- nia of the early 19th century. Witness- ing the mistreatment of the poor by rich landowners and the oppressive colonial government, Don Diego assumes the identity of “Señor Zorro,” a masked fig- ure of great cunning and skill, and vows to bring justice to the region. As Zorro, he also woos the beautiful Lolita Pulido, a woman who is distinctly unimpressed with Don Diego, but who is captivated by the masked swordsman. The film stars Douglas Fairbanks Sr.,


who until ‘Zorro’ had focused on playing traditional all-American leading roles in romantic comedies. The success of ‘Zorro’ launched Fairbanks on a series of


historical adventure films that went on to rank among the most popular spec- tacles of the silent era, including ‘The Three Musketeers’ (1921), ‘Robin Hood’ (1922), ‘The Thief of Bagdad’ (1924), and ‘The Black Pirate’ (1926). The original ‘Zorro’ film was so popular it inspired one of Hollywood’s first big-budget sequels, ‘Don Q, Son of Zorro’ (1925), also starring Fairbanks. Fairbanks, one of the silent screen’s


most popular leading men, was the inspi- ration of the character George Valentin in ‘The Artist,’ the recent Oscar-winning Best Picture. The May 17 screening of ‘The Mark of


Zorro’ will be accompanied by an original score created and performed live by New Hampshire silent film musician Jeff Rap- sis. Rapsis achieves a traditional “movie score” sound for silent film screenings by using a digital synthesizer to reproduce the texture of the full orchestra. ‘The Mark of Zorro’ will be screened on Thursday, May 17 at 6:30pm at the Fly- ing Monkey Moviehouse and Performance Center, 39 South Main St., Plymouth.
