- A Harold Lloyd compilation, and (as it were) primer, put out by Art Ross and Lloyd himself in 1962. No substitute for watching the full length, original films, of course, but useful as an introduction.

He was not only funny, athletic and brave, he was gorgeous! Love you Harold!
I agree
Very gorgeous 🥰🥰🥰🥰
The genius of Mr. Lloyd is greatly unappreciated...I wish this generation would check his films out.
hell, I never got to see him during MY generation (born 1961)! lol...
@teririck2862
I was also born 61
I forget how old I was but I it was on a Sunday when flipping threw the little channels we had and finding a channel that would show clips of Harold Lloyd...That was my first taste of silent films and have been hooked ever since...
Agreed! I just watched the entire, 'Saftey Last!' He was an absolutely amazingly talented and BRAVE man!
My dad (born in 1910) always liked Harold Lloyd. He's the one who introduced me to him.
My grandpa also named Harold introduced me to Harold Lloyd's silent films as a child. I have adored him ever since. If only we were able to go back in time when life was simple.
if kids would just put down there phones and just pay atenshion to 1 harold lloyd film theyed be hooked he truely is the king of comediy
I absolutely adore Harold Lloyd!

❤
He really was a sweetheart of a man and so handsome too! How could you not love ❤️ him! You will always be special and remember Harold.
Lloyd was the best,better than anyone.Truly a great comedian.
Way before my time but I love him!! He is a unique comedian. Had a lot of talent but a lot of competition. He is among the greats in my book. Chaplin, Keaton etc... Love the silent era!!!
LONG LIVE OLD FASHIONED-COMEDY!!!!!
Alice Meagher, you’re so right. After the 3 geniuses, came Bud Abbott and Lou Costello that I discovered. Great rea of comedy for all ages. Try finding that today. Let’s also not forget the Little Rascals, they belong on this list as well
Thank you Internet/youtube/TCM. Without all these channels i wouldn't have discovered such a genius like Harold Lloyd. I love him and I lough at his gags much more than with great Charlie Chaplin. They are just 3 giants of old cinema, Lloyd, Keaton, Chaplin, long time before CGI, when tricks were real only more safe than it looked. For the building climbing, a set was built on top of the buildings. While they were high in the sky they were quite safe. Still you needed great skills and athleticism. I read that he used special shoes made for walking on a rope. He did jumps, backflips. And he looked gorgeous. He did not drink or smoke, and was married to a single wife. What's not to love about this man. Maybe just that he acted against his popularity by limiting the viewing of his films. I love you so much, Harold!
Lloyd was a master of building gags on top of gags. "We would have a gag and then a topper", he'd say. "Maybe even a topper on a topper. But if you could have a topper on a topper on a topper, that's something." A great example of "toppers on top of toppers on top of toppers" is the scene from Feet First. Still thrilling, beautifully paced, and devastatingly funny, absolutely perfect.
+Jim Williamson Thank God for TH-cam. It's great having all this stuff available.
My God................completely amazing was he.
Agree!
The kings of silent films, Chaplin, Keaton and Lloyd were meteors of the cinema. They all burned brightly and flamed out. The public is a fickle audience, as a moth to a light seeks a brighter bulb. They were all geniuses of their chosen field. My favorite was Keaton. But the three of them made an industry with their talents.
Huh? Chaplin did not. He had a long and productive career.
Rest in peace Harold
Hooray for Harold Lloyd!
Oh yeah, some of the very best of Harold Lloyd! Screamingly funny :D
The scene where Harold jumps off the bridge is the last footage of him with his right hand intact.
+Yes!,from haunted spooks (1920) shot august 23,1919,one day before his near-fatal accident.
Without question, Lloyd made the right move in commissioning Walter Scharf to compose a score for this compilation. In particular, his music adds real drama to "Feet First" - in the original release the climbing scene was played without music.
Dad took me and Younger brother Steve when it was at the Varsity theatre in '62, I never saw him laugh so much
My favorite star from the silent era.
That was so awesome. Thank you William!!!! ~~ ♡
I spent the early days of my childhood in South Africa watching Harold Lloyd on the TV, Just raw genius and very,very funny. I love Safety Last but Speedy is my favourite.
He knew how to thrill us!
Thanks... God bless you and Harold Lloyd
Thanks so much for posting this.
The most classy comedies!
thanks for posting.safety last! is my favorite comedy
Loved watching TheWorld of Harol loyd on bbc2 when I was a kid
Going to order this on DVD, as it makes for a great (and inexpensive) compilation of Lloyd's films....the individual movies are too expensive online
Muchas gracias me he reido mucho con estos vídeos de Harold lloid 😂😁😉
What a Master Harold was. My Tip running the Video with Speed at 0,75 makes the Video more Natural.
God bless your soul wonderful man. Amazing viideo
He's baaaaaaaaaaaaack. . .
See where "Photo Shop" came from? Climbing the outside of that building!
Harold lloyd you were a genius
Un grandisimo actor inigualable, una autentica estrella del cine y el maximo rey de la comedia.
Nice movie.
This is fun, but kind of annoying in the clips from his talkies where they've removed the audio to make them appear as if they were silent films.
Watched a whole bunch of his movies on Tcm a couple nights ago. Watched till 2 in the morning
Very True. The General is astonishing. I love it, too.
Sept,29National Silent Film Day I Had zTo Come Here When I Heard I Know Who’s Best
MAGNIFICO
thank you!
Lol I love it when he chases n runs the motorcycle cop off the road n in the pond :-) :D around 25:00
In the talkies, Lloyds voice fit him to a T.
Okay - thank you so much!
I would love to see Professor Beware! I never had the chance to.
+Sandra Isgro You might see them,for his granddaughter suzanne is in the works of devising a boxset of all his seven talkies digitally remastered from the criterion collection coming out very soon.

berry interesting comedy @ my childhood period
WOW
Harold Lloyd was always my favourite ever since i used to watch him on BBC 2 in the early evening i liked Chaplin and Keaton as well but i thought he looked ordinary and not a grotesque as the other silent comedian's looked like.😊
Funny
1962 IDK about that ??
I'm not too familiar with Lloyd's work - what picture was the one with the turkey and the disastrous car ride? That whole sequence was great, but I would definitely have expected some different and more comedy-enhancing music.
+TakersMissy The turkey and disastrous car ride picture is HOT WATER(1924). which was really a three two reelers bunched into a feature,very similar to buster keaton's the three ages.(initially,three ages was going to be released as five reeler not a six-reeler).
Ce documentaire est formidable il aurait bien même si je connai parfaitement son oeuvre qu'il soit sous titré français .
esto si es comedia
Is anyone else having problems with the audio ? I can hear music and sounds but no dialogue
Brilliant, hilarious, inventive... Always preferred Harold Lloyd to Chaplin & Keaton.
Me, too. The best of all comedians. Never get tired of him. 😺 Nancy of San Jose, CALIFORNIA
Lloyd was clearly better than Chaplin or Keaton or anyone else.His expressions and body language was so funny.Truly a great comic.
Me three He is the VERY BEST !!!
I also prefer Harold. And I find him more close to our time than both Chaplin and Keaton. Maybe it's his style of comedy or his handsome good looks.

Walter Scharf's musical scoring here is absolutely awful! I understand that he was personally commissioned by Lloyd himself, but I seriously doubt Scharf ever watched his films, because his music here drains all the excitement from Lloyd's films & makes this film a boring chore to view. Truth be told, I've ripped the audio from this film & play it back whenever I need help falling asleep, and it is remarkably effective.
What was the film with the "tent scene" called ?
+Jonathan Sanger The
scene is from professor beware(1938).of his few feature films that isn't available on home video.
No CGI. How the hell did they get him hanging on that clock?
Through sheer perseverance self-confidence and a lot of grace and skill or athleticism. kudos to his crew and himself especially. thank you mr. lloyd.
If you research it he was not in any danger the look that he was high up in the side of a skyscraper was an illusion created in a film set.
Well, if you can find his brilliant 1989 biography/documentary entitled the third genius, (i really recommend you see it) then it'll give you a complete and utter of how he and his crew made and constructed this wonderful setup for one of the most memorable comedy climaxes or that one salient scene in movie comedy history.
I left out understanding or detail between utter and of.
He was really high up but there was the roof of a building beneath him.
tank you
I've always prefered Lloyd to Keaton; he's funnier and cleverer than Buster, even though I love THE GENERAL(1926).
No need to diss other comedians.

Thanks to the one who posted this. Lloyd came after Keaton. There was an Australian, Snub Pollard who came after Lloyd. They were all good. Harold Lloyd is the silent equivalent to Jerry Seinfeld, a spoilt rich boy trying to be funny.
All comedians are trying to be funny but no came close to topping Lloyd.
Lol I love it when he chases n runs the motorcycle cop off the road n in the pond :-) :D around 25:00
I wouldn't never expect harold to do that, now w.c.fields yes, harold or buster no, not likely or L&H or any other comic from that period.
