PopRally kicks off the new year with a program of silent and not-so-silent comedic shorts. MoMA's assistant film curator Ron Magliozzi and his colleagues have selected slapstick shorts from the silent era that explore then-hot-button issues with impertinence, and pair them with video responses from contemporary comedians, including Fred Armisen. Max Silvestri (of the Big Terrific comedy show) hosts the evening. As with all PopRally events, an open-bar reception bookends the program.
