  • Total running time 90min

Since teenagers ripped up the seats to Bill Haley and his Comets at screenings of Rock Around the Clock in 1956, cinema and pop music have been instrumental in disaffected and rebellious youths discovering their tribes. Post-punk, the Scala cinema staged live gigs and turned its music-loving audience on to style-driven arthouse films. This event, part of our Scala season, looks at the vital relationship between sound and vision. Please check back for more details, including music in the bar after the event.
