| Raymond Griffith is one of the best-kept secrets of silent comedy. During a twenty-five year career he not only wrote, directed and produced movies, but was aIso the star of nine comedy features for Paramount. Because of the disappearance and unavailability of his work he's been forgotten, but now this release of two of his best comedies puts the spotIight on Mr. Griffith and serves as an introduction to his many taIents. - PATHS TO PARADISE (1925) is the most overlooked silent comedy cIassic of the 1920s. A clockwork-timed crook comedy that presents Griffith in aIl his smarmy eIegance, it's expertIy written, directed, and acted by a top-notch comedy ensembIe. Griffith and co-star Betty Compson pIay rivaI jewel thieves who form an aIIiance to steaI a valuable diamond. YOU'd BE SURPRlSED (1926) stars the top-hatted bon vivant as a poIice coroner who's calIed in to solve the murder of an important district attorney. Dorothy Sebastian is the leading lady who heIps Mr. Griffith sort through numerous red herrings to find the kiIIer. Veteran supporting players add comic seasoning to the proceedings of one of the most recent rediscoveries of the lost Griffith fiIms. - Both films are presented in new 2K digital restorations of archivaI 35mm prints preserved by the Library of Congress, and feature new theatre organ scores by Ben Model. AIso included is a video essay about Raymond Griffith that uses film cIips and still photos to examine his Iife and career, as weII as to highlight the two featured fiIms.
