{"product_id":"harry-langdon-comedy-classics-volume-3","title":"Harry Langdon Comedy Classics, Volume 3","description":"At age 40, silent comic Harry Langdon parlayed his man-child persona into a string of hit Mack Sennett comedies. Working with writers Frank Capra and Arthur Ripley he became a superstar, and brought them along when he left Sennett to form the Harry Langdon Corporation. His first three pictures were hits, including \u003ci\u003eTramp, Tramp, Tramp\u003c\/i\u003e (1926), which starred a young Joan Crawford, \u003ci\u003eThe Strong Man\u003c\/i\u003e (1926) and \u003ci\u003eLong Pants\u003c\/i\u003e (1927), the latter two directed by the young Capra.\u003cp\u003eThis program features shorts from Langdon's glory days at the Sennett Studio and his ultra-rare sound films for Educational Pictures. Also included is \u003ci\u003eThe Capture of Cactus Cal\u003c\/i\u003e, a three minute edited version of the otherwise lost \u003ci\u003eHorace Greeley Jr.\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBeautiful Clothes (Make Beautiful Girls)\u003c\/i\u003e, a rare Soundie where Harry sings the praises of the fairer sex. Co-starring with the \"Baby-Faced Clown of Comedy\" in the Sennett shorts are the lovely June Marlowe, Alberta Vaughn, and a then 16-year old Marceline Day. Pitted against Harry in both the silent and sound shorts is frequent Three Stooges antagonist Vernon Dent. A veritable who's who of slapstick comedy masters are behind the camera, with directors including Harry Sweet, Erle C. Kenton, Harry Edwards, Alfred J. Goulding, and Arvid E. Gillstrom. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003ePicking Peaches\u003c\/i\u003e (1924)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eThe First 100 Years\u003c\/i\u003e (1924) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eThe Luck o' the Foolish \u003c\/i\u003e(1924)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eThe Capture of Cactus Cal \u003c\/i\u003e(1925) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eThe Big Flash\u003c\/i\u003e (1932) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eTied for Life \u003c\/i\u003e(1933) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eBeautiful Clothes (Make Beautiful Girls) \u003c\/i\u003e(1942) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Alpha Video","offers":[{"title":"DVD","offer_id":45802183557270,"sku":"089218755797","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/9621\/5446\/files\/089218755797.jpg?v=1762188472","url":"https:\/\/moviezyng.com\/products\/harry-langdon-comedy-classics-volume-3","provider":"Movie Zyng","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
