Alloy Orchestra: The Son of the Sheik
MASS MoCA 87 Marshall St., North Adams, Massachusetts 01247
Passion! Betrayal! Redemption!
Starring Rudolph Valentino and Vilma Bánky, this last and finest of Valentino’s films (he died suddenly just as it was released in 1926) solidified his reputation as the silver screen’s greatest lover. Alloy Orchestra’s propulsive score amplifies the action and drama to a fevered pitch.
