GOLF SLAPPY (1942) w/ Eddie Gribbon
An interesting curio from 1942. This independent slapstick one-reeler was produced, written and directed by Charles Dorety. The three leads are so out-of-shape it almost looks like a sound-era Three Fatties short. And it may be one of Sam Lufkin's rare on-screen credits. With all of that, it is actu...

Re: Richard J. Anobile 76
His greatest contribution to film history remains THE MARX BROS. SCRAPBOOK.

THOSE WERE THE DAYS (1934) Will Hay
This is one of those films where the producers optioned a property simply as a hook to hang a lot of authentic Music Hall performances on. In this case, it was the 50-year-old play THE MAGISTRATE by A.W. Pinero. Young Sidney Drew was cast as the juvenile lead in the play, here played by young John M...

SCRATCH AS CATCH CAN (1931)
This rare Clark & McCullough RKO short has just been licensed by the BBC for Joseph Blough and Geno Cuddy's YouTube channels. It's a doozy, with a supporting cast that includes James Finlayson, Walter Brennan, Charlie Hall (a hilarious performance), Constantine Romanoff, and others familiar to c...

Re: CHARLEY CHASE AT HAL ROACH THE TALKIES: VOLUME FOUR 1929 now available
I submitted my review to Amazon, but with their policy of picking and choosing what they will allow on their page, I am including it here. Needless to say, I gave it 5 ***** "Charley Chase fans have been in clover for the past few years with Sprocket Vault's three-volume release of Chase's shor...

Re: David Wyatt RIP
David will be much missed. Besides the work he did on the D&D label that Richard referenced above, he was an important collaborator on many, many books on film comedy. He had the knack for finding the rarest gems, many in 9.5mm. He was the discoverer of the 107th Laurel & Hardy film, Now I’l...

THE HOLE IN THE WALL (1929)
