  • I noticed someone asking about June Havoc. If you look carefully, at about 4:13, you can see a young girl on the left-hand side behind a woman while a large group is posing for a family portrait. I'm very certain that's June.

  • This was a television series? How did they have television shows back then? Like, nobody owned a TV.

  • @C3P0meetsData Um, World of Comedy was a television show from 1962 complied with the silent films of Harold Lloyd.....

  • Wow, it's amazing how Lloyd is really taking a page from Chaplin's book here! The bowler-hat-pop trick, the male/female behind-the-hat-switch gag, the dancer's flourish at 3:38...I sure like his later stuff where his character is fully fleshed out and his humor is more distinctly his. Still hilarious stuff though.

  • IMDB lists this as June Havok's (Gypsy Rose Lee's sister) first film (she has credit as "Child (as June Hovick)". Is that her, dressed as a boy, who bends down to pick up whatever's on the ground and walks off with the piano on her back? I don't see any other children in the film. June would have been about 6 year old in 1918.

  • Harold Lloyd is THE Cutest thing EVER!! He is absolutely hilarious. I watched this last night with my mom in we were in tears laughing. My all time favorite comedian: Harold Lloyd. :)

  • Ha Ha! Never seen this one. Reminds me alot of Chaplin but Lloyd is so talented even here as he is only 4 or 5 years into his film career. Amazing. The early stages of his famous "glasses" or "boy" character. He deserves his place next to Chaplin & Keaton for sure.

  • is it possibile to see harold llooyd and not love him?

  • That music brings back memories !

  • toute mon enfance..je kif harold Lloyd

  • Wow, wish this was released on a dvd collection. I don't understand the sound effects, or what sounds like French being spoken in the first part, Oh, well. Still a good video, thanks for posting it.

  • This is on American Slapstick Vol 2

  • The part from 0:30 to 0:35 is priceless. It's amazing how well this plays even today.

  • Finally I found an original Harold Lloyd clip on You Tube:)

    Thanks

  • Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful boy! (And his talent was so subtle, not everyone got it.)

    Helpless, helpless, helpless. . .

  • wtf, is it a canadian video?

  • I love his videos! im watching one right now as a matter of fact! I LOVE OLD FILMS!

  • God he was so cute. Saw a lot of stuff that seemed very Chaplin-esque, but as someone else said, and I agree, it's not really stealing from each other, the gags have been around forever. The scene where he's flirting with the lady, just the cutest expression he has there!

  • All the comedians from that era stole from each other. Ive seen Chaplin also steal some ideas as well as Keaton from Lloyd and vice versa.

  • chaplin is wayyy funnier

  • no ones stealing anyone, those gags have existed for hundred of years. Besides, they all pay homage to eachother

  • Are you KIDDING me? Harold Lloyd is amazing! He made more films than Chaplin and Keaton combined!

  • I saw this as a film a couple of months ago and it's much better than this clip, longer with more elaborate gags. I think it's one of Lloyd's best early films.

  • i'm scared

  • He was a cheap mans Chaplin and even admits it in his first autobiography he wrote in the twenties. He was even ashamed at how much he stole from Chaplin. But then again, they both dont come close to Buster Keaton

  • Harold might stole from Chaplin like Chaplin stole from Max Linder.

  • Harold Lloyd is brilliant. Some times I put him up as number 1, but Chaplin was maybe more of an Artist in more ways. Buster Keaton is my number 3.

  • BOOOOOOOO

  • I've always found Harold Lloyd way more funnier than Buster Keaton or Charlie Chaplin.

  • me too, i love his stuff :)

  • ME TOO i LOVE THIS GUY , IS EXCELENTE A MASTER . y ES MUY CIERTo SE LUCE MAS QUE CHAPLIN Y MUCHO MAS QUE BUSTER pero ellos tambien , tienen lo suyo.

  • I love this, Harold is awesome!!!

  • Yes because you just hate mainstream stuff =/

  • Harold Lloyd is so frickin cute. :)

  • I know. :) He's such a hottie.

    *loves dead actors*

  • That was okay, I guess. I can see why Chaplin was bigger. Oh, snap.

  • Harold Lloyd always makes me laugh a lot more than Chaplin.

  • I like your video clip and have rated it as awesome. Please check out my clip of silent movie star tobacco cards. They include: Harold Lloyd, Charlie Chaplin, Rudolph Valentino, Mary Pickford, Lillian Gish, Tom Mix, Jackie Coogan and many more.

  • The chasing his hat scene is sad because Harold is forgotten by many people or is unknown and then someone like Johnny Depp copies him and gets the credit! GGGRRR!

  • That was very funny! And I don't know anything about this stuff!

  • Are you home schooled!?

  • One of my favourite HL clips...The sequence from 03:30 is a masterpiece of timing and editing. Harold Lloyd in drag...timeless humour!

  • Great clip! Love Harold Lloyd. Thanks for posting!
