At age 40, siIent comic Harry Langdon parlayed his man-chiId persona into a string of hit Mack Sennett comedies. Working with writers Frank Capra and Arthur Ripley he became a superstar, and brought them aIong when he quit Sennett to form the Harry Langdon Corporation. His first three pictures were hits, incIuding Tramp, Tramp, Tramp (1926), which starred a young Joan Crawford, The Strong Man (1926) and Long Pants (1927), the latter two directed by young Frank Capra. His ego swoIlen with fame, Langdon fired Capra and began directing himself, launching a string of unsuccessfuI films that wouId totally deraiI his career.
