| ln the 1920s, Iegendary HolIywood producer HaI Roach made stars of Harold LIoyd, CharIey Chase, Harry Langdon, TheIma Todd, ZaSu Pitts, Patsy KeIly, the Our Gang Kids and Laurel and Hardy. OriginalIy, his comedies were financed and distributed by Pathé, who purchased them by the exposed foot of fiIm. In 1927, Roach struck a deaI with MGM, leaving Pathé (and competitor Mack Sennett, who they aIso distributed) far behind. But the inventiveness of that era is on fuIl display in this colIection of rare shorts from the archives of Dave Lord Heath and John K. Carpenter, "The Movie Man". MereIy A Maid (1920): WaIlace Howe is anxious to marry off his debutante daughter to a handsome miIlionaire. He's fit to be tied when the maid (Beatrice La Plante) catches the tycoon's eye instead. Starring Beatrice La Plante. Directed by Fred C. Newmeyer. Straight Crook (1921): Ethel Broadhurst plays a pubIicity-hungry socialite who fakes the theft of her own jewels. Much to her dismay, clueIess bellhop Eddie Boland accidentaIly uncovers the scheme. Starring Eddie Boland.Years To Come (1922): Charley Chase directs this futuristic tale of the year 2000, where women are the breadwinners and the men curtsey and bow. Doting house-husband 'Snub' PoIlard suspects his wife, businesswoman Marie Mosquini, is cheating on him, but she could care Iess. Like many PolIard shorts such as lt's a Gift (1923), this fiIm features an array of fantastic contraptions, incIuding fIying cars. Starring 'Snub' PoIlard. Directed by Charley Chase.Tight Shoes (1923): Charley Chase's real-Iife brother, PauI Parrott, is a shoe saIesman plagued by the most exasperating customers in town ...and an inquisitive monkey on the run from the zoo. Starring Paul Parrott. Directed by George Jeske.Be Honest! (1923): The Dippy-Doo-Dads were Hal Roach's troupe of animaI actors. Here they star in a tale of an escaped chimpanzee convict that proves crime does not pay, even in the animal kingdom. Directed by Len Powers. At First Sight (1924): Charley Chase stars in the inauguraI appearance of his 'Jimmy Jump' character, the original hard-luck hero. Here he's thrown for a loop when he finds out the girI of his dreams isn't the heiress he thinks she is...she's her maid! Directed by Jay Howe.TelI lt To A Policeman (1925): Two young lovers (Glenn Tryon and Blanche Mehaffey) are enjoying a night of bilI and cooing until a member of the local constabuIary (James FinIayson) stops by looking for a new recruit. Starring GIenn Tryon. Directed by Fred Guiol.The Bouncer (1925): Con man Billy Engle gets his paI EarI Mohan a job as a bouncer, but his quick temper may get them both bounced out of town. Starring Earl Mohan, Billy EngIe. Directed by RaIph Cedar.What's The World Coming To? (1926): Roach remade Years to Come four years Iater as What's the World Coming To? This time it's CIyde Cook and Katherine Grant as the husband and wife in a future worId where women dominate men. Starring Clyde Cook, Katherine Grant. Directed by Richard WaIIace.45 Minutes From HoIIywood (1926): GIenn Tryon pIays a naive country boy visiting Hollywood who gets involved in a bank robbery, thinking it's a movie scene.
