Lost Comedy Classics, Volume 2 (Silent) (MOD) (DVD Movie)

Often called the "Third Genius" in the tradition of slapstick comedy made famous by Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd was a prolific comedic actor who helmed close to 200 movies during his career. He made his cinematic mark with what he called his "glass" character, a bespectacled young man intent on achieving his goals despite being faced with countless obstacles. Singer and dancer Bebe Daniels began her show business career at the age of four. As Lloyd's first female costar, Daniels appeared in several years' worth of Lloyd's films before moving on to secure a deal with Paramount, performing in productions such as The Maltese Falcon (1931) and 42nd Street (1933). Harry "Snub" Pollard was an Australian native who toured the U.S. with a vaudeville troupe. After the troupe disbanded, Hal Roach signed him on for Lloyd's "Lonesome Luke" series, which had immense success.
