While this looks like it could have been shot on location, the French village was actually a very intricate set made by a team consisting of several dozen workmen and artisans.

Lewis Stone who plays The Marquis de la Tour d'Azyr in “Scaramouche” (1923) would go on to appear as Georges de Valmorin in “Scaramouche” (1952)

I found conflicting info RE: if Harold’s brother Gaylord Lloyd did stunt or stand-in work for Harold in “The Kid Brother” (1927) b/c there’s a few parts where it looks like him instead of Harold. BUT he was a 2nd unit director
#SilentFlickerSunday #TheKidBrother #HaroldLloyd #GaylordLloyd

“The Kid Brother” (1927) would be the 6th and final onscreen collaboration of Jobyna Ralston and Harold Lloyd.

Harold Lloyd would go on to consider “The Kid Brother” (1927) his absolute favorite of the 18 feature length films he made

And now our feature presentation: Harold Lloyd & Jobyna Ralston in “The Kid Brother” (1927) (https://youtu.be/uVIAwl-e9Lo?is=3W5Y6haEn0QhGCm9)

If the circus stunts and performances look particularly well down it’s b/c actual circus, side show and vaudeville performers were hired for those parts and as stand-ins and stunt doubles for the main cast
