WHO DONE IT? (1917) - Gale Henry
A raucous reel of fun featuring Gale Henry, Eddie Baker and Billy Franey, clobberin' everything in sight with his club. And this is a reel rarity too. We believe this only exists on 8mm film - scanned and restored here for your further viewing pleasure. (It was issued in the UK by Perry's Movies, under the title 'Moviemad'!). Thanks to Glenn Mitchell for the loan of the print and for creating the main and end titles. Marvellous music by Ethan Uslan, from his 'Blaze Away' collection, available now at ethanuslan.com (used by permission). Enjoy!

Time to wind the clock back... So, ever since the Monty Banks Blu-Ray discs were sent out to all of the wonderous Kickstarter backers who made it happen, I've had a load of lovely folk say "hey Dave, why weren't the Kickstarter update videos included as extras?". Well, there just simply wasn't the room. So, in order to keep everyone happy & jolly, here's the first of three of 'em. Oh, and if yo...
HIS FIRST LOVE (1918) - Mr & Mrs Sidney Drew
มุมมอง 3952 หลายเดือนก่อน
Here's a nice little rarity, that we believe is only on 8mm film. It's the surviving footage of a Mr & Mrs Sidney Drew from 1918. Although it's not complete, there's enough footage to establish what's going on and it's a delightful example of their style. Hey Drew Barrymore! Here's one of your relatives!! The music ('Temptation Rag') is supplied by the nimble fingers of Mr Ethan Uslan. Check ou...

Hey, it's Silent Movie Day! (29 Sept 2024) AND it's Billy Bevan's birthday too! So to commemorate that (and the subtle release of our 2 disc Billy Bevan blu-ray set!), I thought you'd like to see some wonderful tantalising clips from the elusive 1922 Bevan film MA AND PA, co-starring lovely Mildred June, Dot Farley and Jimmy Finlayson. These clips were from four different sources and I know the...

So following on from Steve's ANIMAL MAGNETISM feature, here's a delightful short from Fox featuring Jerry Madden and his canine pal, 'Pal'. It also features literally a whole boat-full of animals, including Anna May the elephant and John Brown the bear. The music (used with permission) is hand picked and edited from Ethan Uslan's wonderful You Tube channel, which I heartily recommend. Enjoy!

So, in anticipation of Anita Garvin's upcoming birthday (Feb 11), here's her very first film appearance. See if you can spot the Garv! (Sorry but there's no inter-titles. It's one of those 'Christie Cutdowns'. You may therefore also prefer to watch this one mute!)

great stuff Dave, thanks for all you do
Thanks Craig.
Thanks for adding this reel fun short.
My pleasure.
What a treat - many thanks for sharing.
My pleasure Steven.
Nice short, that was great.
Glad you enjoyed it JB.
Gale Henry...Kickstarter... 🤔
Good idea!
@@DaveGlass Take my money.
BBC2 in the early 80s introduced me to the world of Harold Lloyd, early evenings. Thank God for TH-cam, as these, along with the Laurel and Hardy shorts, have not been shown on "normal" TV for decades.
Thanks. More to come...
Love this series since on TV in 1981😅
I was wondering if your still putting out more mickey mcguire shorts again.
From having reviewed the full 10 minutes of this film, I can confirm that your footage picks up at around 4mins 10secs into the film.
I'll ask again! Why not preparing a good generous rare Snub set? He deserves it!
Hey Martin.... the answer to your question could possibly be that it's because watching some Snub Pollard films is about as entertaining as watching the second hand on a clock ticking endlessly for a whole hour! 🤣
Good stuff! Lloyd Hamilton was very funny, thank you for doing this project.
Snub had a long career working with Harold Lloyd then solo for Hal Roach.Appeared in westerns also turned up in several 3 Stooges shorts 😅
👍
👍
You’ve Snubbed us again! ❤
Bill Scudder was a good Chaplin impersonater. He did all those IBM commercials back in the late 80's/early 90's when IBM aquired permission from his estate to use his character. Some of those commercials can be found on TH-cam.
Ford Sterling was THE star at Keystone before Chaplin arrived. His nose biting bit was his signature move and IMO still holds up to this day. I love his exaggerated facial expressions and hand gestures. It looks silly today and was even back then as well but that's what Mack Sennett wanted in his shorts. Ford was a master of the silent comedy craft.
This is where Jackass got the inspiration from.
Looks like our local pd in 2025
These guys now run the United States Secret Service! Lol
Accurate documentary on the modern police force.
The Keystone cops are still hilarious to me till this day
Larry Semon n était pas un type sympathique quand Stan laurel est venu tout le monde de la Vitagraphe disait de Stan sgars la est 1000 fois plus drôle que 10 Semon réuni. Semon était conscient que Stan était génial alors il réduisait au minimum les prestations et les idées de Stan qui à près divers altercations avec Semon . Stan quittera rapidement la Vitagraphe pour allez vers d autres horizons et surtout chez Hall Roach. Génial Stan laurel .
Source?
@lucille7235 source ma connaissance du cinéma très développé dans divers ouvrages sur le cinéma burlesque Stan et Ollie leurs rencontre de Semon a la Vitagraphe et puis des témoignages de gents qui ont tournés avec lui . Semon star de la Vitagraphe plus édité.
@@marcdelente2456 Thank you! Can you give me more details? I'm still searching for solid evidence regarding this story. Rob Stone for instance has a different view on Stan and Larry. For example that Larry always allowed his co-stars lots of screen time, no matter who it was and that Stan was struggling with his drinking and not reliable and in the end that the Spanish flu forced Vitagraph to close down so that Stan had to return to vaudeville. Larry used Stan first in Huns and Hyphens in a small rôle, in Bears and Bad Men he already gave him intensive screen time in which the two already teamed up and in Frauds and Frenzies there was nearly equal screen time, just in the final scene Stan got a bit less, although he was in the final frame with Larry. BTW Larry was the star, Stan was a fledgling screen actor. Chaplin for example, as Sennett stated, had not that much competition in his films after he left Keystone. Semon constantly worked with lots of scene stealers: Hardy, Carlisle, Kirby, Hayes only to mention a few.and if you watch his complete films he rarely is the first one to enter the scene. Quite on the contrary, granting others 5 minutes or more. I should say one should handle this story which seems to me as word of mouth with much more care. And I really wonder why it is always cited again and again.
Its like watching the Keystone cops. Lol
Your update videos are sometimes funnier than the films you're restoring!! Stellar work, David! 😊
You’re an artist mate. I’m just a Pi**ed artist. 2 things was that a Kenny Everett reference and that man at back left in the audience is that D.T.
Just like a lot of cops today. I think it's their favorite beer too.
The GOP in 2025!!
This is the Republican party 2025! 🤣😅😂
Billy is a funny guy, thanks! He did the oyster stew bit first on film, the 3 Stooges, and Abbott and Costello would do it later.
Watched the set again and want to say thanks. I enjoy the whole set but want to single out “Paging Love” as an absolute masterpiece. - Doug Sarnecky
That's great to hear Doug. Thanks! 'Paging Love' is one of my favourites too.
Oi ! Grotty 9.5 that’s all us oinks can afford. Great work Dave really enjoy your documentary stuff. You really should be making Documentary’s. Nice to see Mr Wyatt’s name at the beginning miss him a lot.
You know I jest. It was DW that got me into 9.5 in the first place and now it's one of my all time favourite gauges. I need help.
@@DaveGlassyes I know you jest. I was just saying something that DW would say. You know there is no escape for you once you enter the 9.5 Zone. And GOD help you if you go to the 28/17.5mm Zone. That’s a rufff ride.
Exciting!
Wonderful news! I am interested in a set of Monty Banks blu-rays if they're still available. I really appreciate your hard work on these gems. Also, is that comedian Sid Smith at 1:25? He was quite the comedic acrobat but sadly unknown. We lost this talented character way too soon.
Just message me at dave@daveglass.co.uk 🙂 (and yes, well spotted! That IS Sid).
Great to be reminded of these! For anyone who hasn't purchased it, the Monty set is absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend you buy one from Dave immediately 😄
Will give this one a whirl... 😸😸😸
Love them!
Space Station 13's most competent security force
Quite amusing. 🌲
All of their descendants work in the UK now!
Used to watch this on BBC2 back in the 80s, ha. Those were the days.
Looks accurate
WONDERFUL!
Thanks, can't have too much Billy. I also, highly recommend the wonderful Blu Ray set to anybody that loves to laugh, thank you D&D.
Thanks!
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Thanks for sharing this gem.
This eerily reminds me of the 2024 Dallas Cowboys.
Thank you for this wonderful upload, a pleasure to see such rarities ❤
You might have noticed now there is a longer version of Monty Banks Always Late, on youtube, with german intertitles... th-cam.com/video/d7VllhvurSU/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared ... be neat if someone made a composite english print.
Formidable film :)
Some of the gags are copied from Buster Keaton.Or is it the other way around?Anyway,it's fun
I plan to train my next generation to be comedians like Harold and perform in funny movies including mimes.
The taller one is Harold, and the shorter one is Gallo, who is two years older than Harold.
