EAST AND WEST (1923) @ Cleveland Cinematheque / Indian Flame
Cinematheque at Cleveland Institute of Art, 11610 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, OH, USIn the earliest surviving Yiddish film, Molly Picon, star of 1920s Yiddish theater, plays the daughter of a rich, assimilated American who is invited to a family celebration in an Eastern European shtetl. Though her brash behavior alienates the locals, she is admired by a shy orthodox Talmudic scholar, played by Picon’s real-life husband Jacob Kalich. (Almost fifty years after making East and West, Picon played Yente in the 1971 film version of Fiddler on the Roof.)
East and West will be shown at the Cinematheque with an original score performed by pianist Donald Sosin and violinist Alicia Svigals, “co-founder of the Grammy Award-winning band The Klezmatics ...[and] considered by many to be the world's foremost living klezmer fiddler” (- Wikipedia)
“a hilarious depiction of a young American secularized Jewish woman in conflict with the traditions of her European Jewish family....a marvelous vehicle for the impish comedian [Picon] to cross-dress, satirize parochial religious practices, and strut her way into a new medium” - Jewish Women's Archive
