The Lodger + Live Score by Hugo Max

One of Hitchcock’s first ever films is based on the story of Jack The Ripper. As the suspicion that a neighbour may not be all he seems, the cat- and-mouse tension reaches almost unbearable proportion. About Hugo Max: Viola player and filmmaker Hugo Max presents a UK tour accompanying Alfred Hitchcock’s 1927 silent masterwork The Lodger with live score. Packed with the stylistic flourishes and experimental trick shots that would become defining trademarks of Hitchcock’s film language, the third feature by the Master of Suspense is a gripping murder mystery propelled by Ivor Novello’s iconic central performance. Hugo Max performs live improvised scores to silent films on solo viola, regularly soundtracking screenings at London’s Prince Charles Cinema and Picturehouse Cinemas. He has presented nationwide tours focussing on silent horror, expressionism and the films of F. W. Murnau. Website: https://hugomax.co.uk/scoring-silent-cinemaThrillerPT1H31MPG2026-10-11
