This increase in a need for privacy leads to less witnesses around the neighborhoods, leav- ing houses more susceptible to burglaries. The local residents will apply for a Neighborhood Watch pro- gram that LCSO will help set up. The people will vote and de- cide on which type of program they would like and will begin implementing the watch over the coming weeks. Signs have already been set up in the area indicating that the Neighbor- hood Watch program is active in the London area. “Even if you don’t decide to have a Neighborhood Watch program, those signs still help as deterrents,” Carver said. Nowicki will know when the Neighborhood Watch program will be approved once all the ap- plications are in and background checks are complete. Cottage Grove for Saturday’s screening, one evening after “The General,” with its new score, premiered to a sold-out crowd at the Hollywood. (The theatre has since added three more shows due to high de- mand.) Williams explained that the Hollywood Theatre has been celebrating its own 90th an- niversary all summer, and that Oregon Film fi rst envisioned Saturday’s screening of “The General” in Cottage Grove as the only event to mark the an- niversary of the movie’s fi lm- ing until City Manager Richard Meyers, Keaton fanatic Lloyd Williams and others here got involved. “We wanted to link the Hol- lywood, this movie and its new score by an Oregon composer,” Tim Williams said, pointing out that Orton’s love of all things Keaton helped create a beauti- ful piece of music. “We thought it was going to be the only one, but when we discovered how cool it was going to be, we de- cided to go after some grants so we could do it again.” “The General” will thus play at the Egyptian Theatre in Coos Bay backed by Orton’s score, though Williams acknowledged that Saturday’s event was the “centerpiece” of the celebration. Grants from the Oregon Com- munity Foundation and Oregon Cultural Trust will allow the theaters to charge admission as a fundraiser. Before the screening, Orton, who has scored numerous fi lms including the 2013 Oscar-nomi- Organist Richard Hale performed the music of silent fi lms on organ prior to the showing of "The General." photo by Jon Stinnett nated “Nebraska,” explained that his work was designed to complement the time period depicted in “The General,” the Civil War era, in addition to the 1920s, when Keaton made the fi lm. “Buster is long dead, but I’m hoping he might like what I would do with his movie,” Or- ton said. The movie started just af- ter dark on a large infl atable screen, and Orton’s score car- ried through each scene, a continuous piece of music that would’ve been at home onstage without serving as the back- drop for a major fi lm. Bits of ragtime and early jazz spiced up several scenes, as did the ac- cents provided by a musician acting as Foley and reproducing sound effects that earned howls from the crowd. Onscreen, Ke- aton retained his role as the lovable protagonist, escaping scrape after scrape in his pur- suit of his beloved engine and his sweetheart, Annabelle Lee. The crowd exploded in laughter on more than a few occasions, cheered when Buster escaped his pursuers and let out a mighty roar during the climactic scene of the locomotive crashing into the Row River. After the movie, Orton stuck around for quite a while to chitchat with the audi- ence.
