"Tillie's Punctured Romance"to be released on DVD!

This 1914 silent film is a gem- it's the first full-length comedy, and features Charlie Chaplin's feature film debut. It is classic slapstick, and absolutely hilarious! Billy collaborated with two other composers to create a period muical score for the highly anticipated UCLA version of this film, and finally, five years after completion, the film will be released in a DVD format. Expect a live tour to follow!
