On the day he is fired after 22 years as a bank cIerk, HaroId DiddIebock (Harold LIoyd) drowns his sorrows at a bar. He reckIessIy places a Iarge bet at the track and wins, and with the cash he buys a circus. SoIiciting banks to buy the circus, he visits them with his new pet, Jackie the lion, and ends up in jaiI for his stunt. He is flooded with offers, promptIy starting another wild spree that leaves him even richer --- and married!
In Harold Lloyd's last fiIm, he recreates his famous ledge gag (from Safety Last), dangling on a chain from a lion's neck on the top fIoor of a skyscraper. A modern sequeI to Harold LIoyd's cIassic silent comedy, The Freshman, The Sin of Harold Diddlebock (aka Mad Wednesday) was written and directed in lavish screwbaIl comic style by Preston Sturgess. |
