TODDFAN Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 OMG!!! This is the ONLY Todd short I never got to the first time around! Thanks for the heads up. Link to post Share on other sites
ThelmaTodd Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Hi! That movie is "Speak Easily". It's a full length film (60+ minutes) and featured Buster Keaton as performer and producer. Always glad to hear from the fans! Thelma Link to post Share on other sites

ziggyelman Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 That's ok Thelma, you made the short over 75 years ago! I thought I was going to be the first to mention this, but that's cool! The films before and after this short, both starring Nancy Carroll, should be cool as well!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
ziggyelman Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Say, why not mention the films by name, since Hot Toddy is in one of them??? I assume they are both Hal Roach films, with Langdon in one, and Todd in the other.... 27 Tuesday 6:00 AM *Atlantic Adventure* (1935) An ace reporter tracks the man who killed the D.A. to an ocean liner. Cast: Nancy Carroll, Lloyd Nolan, Harry Langdon. Dir: Albert S. Rogell. BW-68 mins, TV-G 7:13 AM Short Film: *Sneak Easily* (1932) (Todd and Pitt) BW-16 mins, 7:30 AM *After The Dance* (1935) An escaped convict tries to keep ahead of the law while starring in a dancing act. Cast: Nancy Carroll, George Murphy, Thelma Todd. Dir: Leo Bulgakov. BW-60 mins, TV-G Link to post Share on other sites

tobitz Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Just checked down here after posting on the Upcoming Shorts thread. I obviously haven't been paying enough attention to this forum. I love things like SNEAK EASILY, and as happy as it makes me to discover them by accident, I think I'll be checking here for hopes of advanced notice. Anyone know why the TCM database has so little information on the shorts? I usually end up checking on IMDb to find out who's involved. Link to post Share on other sites
movieman1957 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Charley Chase is coming June 21 at 9:40am. "Neighborhood House." (appropriately before the Laurel and Hardy double feature.) Link to post Share on other sites
HalRoach16mm Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 ATTENTION ALL CHARLEY CHASE FANS. Cinecon 44, one of the oldest classic film festivals in the country will be held August 28th thru September 1st at Grauman's Egyptian Theater on Hollywood Blvd. Among the over forty films presented will be three films featuring comedy pioneer Charley Chase. First up is a meticulously restored version of "Tillie's Punctured Romance", which includes recently found footage that hasn't been seen since its original release in 1914. Charley Chase plays a detective and has a sequence with Charles Chaplin and Mabel Normand in a movie theater. Second is a long lost film and the first sound motion picture Charley Chase appeared in, entitled Modern Love (1929). Released by Universal, this film also features Anita Garvin. Chase and Garvin filmed this during the break at the Hal Roach Studios when the compound was closed in order to wire up for sound pictures. This will be the first time since 1929 that the once lost film will be seen AND in 35mm. Finally, one of the four missing Charley Chase Columbia shorts that hasn't been seen since its original release in 1939 will be shown. The Awful Goof also features Lucille Lund, who played the wife of Boris Karloff in The Black Cat. Screened in 35mm (as are virtually all the films) this is another rare opportunity to see a once thought lost film. Many features, shorts, cartoons and other rare film will be seen including a two reel remake of Laurel and Hardy's classic Way Out West, this time featuring Max Baer and Maxie Rosenbloom, made at Coolumbia Pictures. Go to the Cinecon website for further information. www.cinecon.org and don't miss this chance to see rare Charley Chase and other amazing films. Cinecon is an annual festival and always takes place over Labor Day weekend. The celebrity banquet is a chance to see at least fifty stars from the glory days and is a big highlight of the festival. Don't expect to wait for these to pop up on DVD. Film preservation is not done soley so everything can be put out on video. Some things are done for preservation purposes and can be seen the way they were meant to be seen; on a screen. Come join us as we screen rare classics and a few nobody has seen in decades. Viva Chase! Link to post Share on other sites

musicalnovelty Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Shemp; That's great that they're finally getting around again to some of the Hal Roach shorts, although "Three Chumps Ahead" was recently shown. You must be a Stooges fan. Going to the Fan Club Meeting? Link to post Share on other sites
deadendkid Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Thanks for the tip on The Boyfriends short, Shemp. I probably would have missed it! Link to post Share on other sites
jgmovie Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 The Taxi Boys short *Strange Innertube* (1932) just aired in the slot between *Rich and Strange* and *The Tunnel*. I only caught the last ten minutes; it was not listed on the schedule and hope TCM will show it again with a little advance notice. And please, how about the weekly Hal Roach Theater that's been suggested here before? Link to post Share on other sites

movieman1957 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 One that is listed on the schedule is "The Laurel and Hardy Murder Case." May 27 6:00am. Having never seen any of "The Taxi Boys" how would you (collective) rate them compared to "The Boyfriends" or Chase or any of the Thelma Todd shorts? Link to post Share on other sites

musicalnovelty Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 A reminder, TCM: You still have all those great fun Hal Roach shorts: Charley Chase Thelma Todd, ZaSu Pitts, Patsy Kelly The Boy Friends The Taxi Boys And all those really interesting "All-Star" and musical Roach shorts. Please don't forget about these! We'd sure love to see them again. And what about all those that you haven't shown yet (Harry Langdon, Irvin S. Cobb, etc.)? When might we hope to see those? Just a reminder... Link to post Share on other sites
