"Different From the Others": Film Screening in the Hawthorne Barn

The Provincetown Film Society (PFS) and Twenty Summers collaborated on the first film screening in the Hawthorne Barn. To commemorate the 100-year history of cinema in Provincetown, we showcased another 1919 cinematic milestone: Different From the Others, the first known pro-gay film in the world. We proudly presented the newly restored film with live musical accompaniment featuring an original score by Billy Hough and Sue Goldberg (of “Scream Along with Billy”), followed by a Q&A with Brendan Lucas, an expert on LGBTQ film and history.
