HAROLD LLOYD Vol. 1
Harold Lloyd, in these early comedies, is a vital, hyper-active, ambitious and aggressive young man who gets by on his
cleverness and dexterity rather than his brawn which his antagonists invariably have. "NUMBER PLEASE" deals with
mishaps at an amusement park of the 1920's as well as his problems with the telephone operators. "THE CITY
SLICKER" features Harold as an efficiency expert who comes to a small rural town in need of modernizing. He installs
all sorts of gadgets such as moving bathtubs and beds. A society "deb" arrives with a trail of suitors and a frumpy mother
to upset the workings of the hotel. "HIGH AND DIZZY" has Harold pursuing his fiancée. Only problem is she's
sleepwalking, on the outside ledge of a tall hotel! Harold is trying to rescue her on the ledge but he's drunk and having
trouble keeping his own balance! This was one of Lloyd's earliest "thrill comedies" he became famous for.

HAROLD LLOYD Vol. 2
One of Harold's western parodies explores the theme of the city tenderfoot going out West and encountering some real
tough villains who put brawn over brains. In "AN EASTERN WESTERNER", Harold must fight villains including The
Clan before triumphing! Also on this compilation is another theme used by many silent era comedians, the Royal intrigue.
In "HIS ROYAL SLYNESS", Harold is the look-alike to a European prince who would rather become an American
playboy. They switch parts and Harold winds up turning aside a Revolution that he unwittingly starts! Also on this
compilation is a domestic comedy "ASK FATHER".

HAROLD LLOYD Vol. 3
This 30 year retrospective on Lloyd would not be complete without an example of his earliest work. On this volume one
of the only known Lonesome Luke comedies known to survive is featured. Lloyd played this grotesque character (of
sorts) to satisfy the public demand for Chaplin-type humor. Lloyd would soon elevate his style to the more
middle-class everyman character we all came to know so well. "LUKE'S MOVIE MUDDLE" has him working at a local
nickelodeon at a frenzied pace where the usual slapstick results. On to the 1920's with his established character in
horn-rimmed glasses in three more fast-paced comedies. They are "THE NON-STOP KID", "ON THE FIRE", and
"SPRING FEVER". In one of his earliest cameos, Lloyd plays a vegetable vendor who runs afoul of the Keystone Cops
and Charley Chase in "LOVE, LOOT AND CRASH".

HAROLD LLOYD Vol. 4
Harold must "STEP LIVELY"(1919) as he is evicted from his boarding house. Homeless, he is also hungry so he
contrives to find a way to steal a hot sausage from a local street vendor. While hiding the sausage behind his back, a tough,
aggressive street dog steals it! Harold gives chase to the dog but the tough canine turns the tables and chases Harold
throughout the neighborhood. Over the fences and into a boarding house, Harold then foilds a robbery before making
friends with Bebe and the pooch! Joining Harold in this comedy is Bebe Daniels, Bud Jamison, Snub Pollard and Billy
Engle.Then two of his finest and most memorable comedies are featured. "HAUNTED SPOOKS" (1920) has Harold
and his new bride inheriting an old mansion that seems to have ghosts haunting it. It is actually some scheming lawyers
(pardon the redundancy) who are attempting to scare Harold and Mildred from their inheritence.The usual fun sight-gags
occur throughout. Along for the fun is Sunshine "Sammy" Morrison who would go on to become the first member of the
classic "Our Gang" comedy series which would last for more than two decades. "NEVER WEAKEN" (1921) is one of
Harold Lloyd's best "thrill comedies". Harold mistakenly thinks his girl is jilting him for someone else so he decides to do
himself in. After a variety of inept attempts, a series of coincidences takes him out on a sky-scraper under construction
and danger at every step! Now self-preservation takes ahold and Harold must find a safe way back!

HAROLD LLOYD Vol. 5
Harold is down on his luck in "FROM HAND TO MOUTH". He meets a little waif girl and they try and get by on their
wits to avoid starvation. This desperate situation actually provides for some first rate gags and laughs! In the next film,
"GET OUT AND GET UNDER", Harold's jalopy needs fixing and a little kid named Sunshine Sammy Morrison proves
to be a nuisance at every turn. Later, a theatrical play turns into an elopement in this comedy. Morrison's natural talent on
camera was such that Hal Roach soon cast him in his own series; the legendary Our Gang/Little Rascals comedies began
because of Ernie Morrison's abilities. Next we find Harold, Bebe Daniels and Snub Pollard at an amusement park in
"WHY PICK ON ME?". Finally a domestic squabble between neighbors turns to friendship when a baby is almost run
over in "JUST NEIGHBORS".

HAROLD LLOYD Vol. 6
Thrown out of his boarding house for non-payment of 5 weeks back rent (a whole dollar and a half!), Harold must try and
out-wit his debt collectors only to be out-witted by a pesky dog in "STEP LIVELY". Next, Harold tries to impress his
girl at a local skating rink in "DON'T SHOVE". A race on skates climaxes this early version of roller-derby! Next we see
Harold as a novice writer attempting to break into the world of the Broadway musical in "BUMPING INTO
BROADWAY" with Bebe Daniels as his girl friend. Finally, a look at Lloyd in one of his earliest juvenile roles in the
Mack Sennett comedy "COURTHOUSE CROOKS" with Ford Sterling.

HAROLD LLOYD Vol. 7
In "GOING, GOING, GONE" Harold and Snub are a couple of con men running a scam on a fake ring. They encounter
Bebe Daniels who works as a fake "medium" for Professor Goulash and his mystic Temple. It becomes a contest of who
can out-con who. "NEVER TOUCHED ME" involves four suitors of Bebe Daniels. One of them is Harold. This comedy
features a rare appearence in "drag" by Harold when he masquerades as a cabaret dancer in order to avoid being shot by a
jealous rival. Lloyd seldom did female guise in the Arbuckle-Laurel-Chaplin tradition. "CHOP SUEY & COMPANY"
casts Harold as a cop who, after causing a commotion in the park with a stage actress, is transferred to Chinatown with
complications ensuing. Lloyd is shanghaied by a ship loaded with females pirates in "CAPTAIN KIDD'S KIDS". In the
domestic comedy "I DO" Harold and his wife are baby-sitting the brother-in-law's two mischievous children and the
young couple can't keep up with the problems!

GRANDMA'S BOY
Harold Lloyd described this first venture into feature-length comedy format as a psychological study of a boy, cowardly
both in the physical sense as well as morally only to be transformed by a fable by his grandmother. With a flashback to
the Civil War, but set in the rural America of the 1920's, Lloyd's character discovers that he triumphed only because he
believed in himself. This psychological approach to comedy was rather experimental for its day and daring on Lloyd's
part. There are plenty of gags and laughs to spare in this comedy as Harold overcomes his fear of bullies and becomes the
man he always should have been.

DR. JACK
As a young country Doctor, Harold plays Dr. "Jack" Jackson who's method of medicine is more on the humanistic side
versus his contemporaries who overload patients with pills and blankets (not to mention exorbitant fees!). When a "poor
little rich girl", whose only real ailment is seclusion and darkness fostered by an officious foreign doctor, is treated by Dr.
Jack, amazing things happen. Filled with warmth and humor, this film also has some great sight gags in it as well! Harold
decides that the girl needs some excitement rather than quiet. He disguises himself as a fiend in a cape with fake teeth and
a hat and chases everybody through the house. Much to her surprise, the girl never felt better after all the exercise and excitement!
