Harold on Display
This very short little Harold Lloyd film concerns The Boy (Lloyd), a rebellious young man who has been kicked out of too many pubs in New York and is thus sent to the 'wild west' by his father to straighten up.
The Boy inevitably meets The Girl (Mildred Davis) and must help her out of a scrape while silmultaneously involving himself in someone else's battle.
Lloyd performs some classic bits in this flick. From disguising himself inside of a coat to a great poker scene where he disguises himself as the barkeep to check out the cards of the competition.
Overall this film is a great introduction to Lloyd's brand of silent comedy. Where Keaton was the great stone face and Chaplin was the tramp, Lloyd is the dorky everyman who will always find his way out of a tough spot.
