What:  From Morn to Midnight is even more bizarre and stylized than the better known German Expressionist classic The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.  The film is based on a controversial, experimental stage play of the era that divided audiences and critics.  It tells the story of a bank cashier in a small German town who meets a rich, Italian woman and discovers the power of money. Alloy Orchestra will perform an original, new score.  (Karl Heinz Martin, 1920, Germany, 65 min.)
