HAROLD LLOYD
Movie Crazy (1932)
Dir: Clyde Brockman, Harold Lloyd (uncredited) US 84mins
Cert: U
In an unprecedented move, Slapstick festival is screening our first Harold Lloyd talkie!
Best known for his classic silent comedies, Lloyd continued to have strong commercial and critical success in his early sound films. Movie Crazy (1932), is considered his finest talkie and one of his best films but is rarely screened. The film was a major critical and commercial success, grossing over $1,439,000 in the United States alone.
In Movie Crazy, Harold plays Harold Hall, an accident-prone young man with little or no acting ability, who desperately wants to be in pictures. After a mix up he finds himself in a Hollywood where his adventures cause all sorts of trouble.
Introduced by the president of Lloyd entertainment and granddaughter of Harold Lloyd, Suzanne Lloyd .
