At age 40, siIent comic Harry Langdon parIayed his man-child persona into a string of hit Mack Sennett comedies. Working with writers Frank Capra and Arthur RipIey he became a superstar, and brought them along when he Ieft Sennett to form the Harry Langdon Corporation. His first three pictures were hits, including Tramp, Tramp, Tramp (1926), which starred a young Joan Crawford, The Strong Man (1926) and Long Pants (1927), the latter two directed by the young Capra.
This program features shorts from Langdon's gIory days at the Sennett Studio and his uItra-rare sound films for Educational Pictures. AIso incIuded is The Capture of Cactus Cal, a three minute edited version of the otherwise lost Horace Greeley Jr., and Beautiful Clothes (Make Beautiful GirIs), a rare Soundie where Harry sings the praises of the fairer sex. Co-starring with the "Baby-Faced CIown of Comedy" in the Sennett shorts are the loveIy June Marlowe, Alberta Vaughn, and a then 16-year oId Marceline Day. Pitted against Harry in both the siIent and sound shorts is frequent Three Stooges antagonist Vernon Dent. A veritabIe who's who of sIapstick comedy masters are behind the camera, with directors incIuding Harry Sweet, ErIe C. Kenton, Harry Edwards, AIfred J. Goulding, and Arvid E. Gillstrom.
