Hunchback of Notre Dame (1923)
with Wurlitzer Organ

This spectacular 1920s film starring “the man of a thousand faces” Lon Chaney as the hunchbacked bell-ringer Quasimodo, is the most acclaimed film version of the Victor Hugo novel Notre Dame de Paris.

Set in the 16th century walled city of Paris, the story winds through many plot twists and turns involving a gypsy girl, love, obsession, kidnapping, the gallows, a flogging, molten lead, an army of the poor and, of course, the famous Cathedral. Also stars Brandon Hurst, Patsy Ruth Miller and Ernest Torrence.

This silent classic will be accompanied on the Mighty Wurlitzer by Juan Cardona, Jr., made possible with support from New York Theatre Organ Society (NYTOS).
