Saturday Afternoon (1926) - Harry Langdon

<< < (3/3)

Umbrella Sam:
And, yeah, that footage of THERE HE GOES was really good, it’s a shame the majority of it is apparently lost. I especially love his reaction when the policemen run straight past him.

NoahYoung:
Well, I have the Super 8 Blackhawk version.

I'm nowhere near a Langdon expert, and have not seen all his films, but this is definitely the best one of his I've seen. I agree that he and Dent made a great team. Aside from the comedy, I enjoy the many street scenes. Makes me feel like I'm in a time machine with a great view of the past. That's what's great about silent comedy before the talkies arrived that were mostly shot on sound stages.
