And finally, here’s “Caught in a Cabaret” (1914) written, directed & starring Mabel Normand with Charlie Chaplin as her leading man (https://youtu.be/YcZZ8JSfN_c?is=bkyehW53yV6VhyFx)

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

“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)

Holding dogs- especially little dogs- always makes me nervous

Finally, “Più Forte Che Sherlock Holmes” AKA “Stronger than Sherlock Holmes” (1913) (https://youtu.be/zerLNHjyWa8?is=tMIjhNeZO9A5Z2dB) a short Italian crime comedy directed by Giovanni Pastrone and the Spanish Méliès: Segundo de Chomón

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
#SilentFlickerSunday #Variety #Variete

Director Ewald André Dupont would go on to remake “Variety” 1925) as the highly successful, 1931 talkie “Salto Mortale”

Sorry about how weirdly placed the intertitle cards are for “Variety” (1925). This is the only version with english intertitles AND a score that’s not annoying or nonexistent
#SilentFlickerSunday #Variety #Variete

Now that we’ve gotten through some romance, it’s time for a mysterious Feature Presentation: “Varieté” AKA “Variety” (1925) (https://youtu.be/dV9luHT_7q8?is=xHf61o9_Ojqr3SuN), a German Expressionist crime drama directed by Ewald Andre Dupont
