Harold Lloyd in ON THE BEAM - 1921 Mutoscope
Posted: Mon Apr 13, 2020 2:16 pm
When is a Harold Lloyd film not a film? Answer: when it's a roll of photographs made specially for the penny arcade!
Here's Harold dancing on a girder in a 1921 Mutoscope filmed between takes of his Hal Roach three-reeler NEVER WEAKEN.
It's only 40 seconds long, and unfortunately the image quality is poor; this was filmed with a cellphone at San Francisco's Musée Mécanique a couple of summers ago.
