mr6666 Posted July 9, 2015 Sun., 7-12 (times EST) 12:00 AM B/W56 minTV-G silent Grandma's Boy (1922) In this silent film, a young coward thinks a magical charm can make him a hero. Dir: Fred Newmeyer Cast: Harold Lloyd , Mildred Davis , Anna Townsend . LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW: D: Fred Newmeyer. Harold Lloyd, Mildred Davis, Anna Townsend, Charles Stevenson, Noah Young, Dick Sutherland. "Lloyd's first great success casts him as a mousy small-town type inspired to fight for his girl--and his honor--by his grandma's tales of family heritage. Still entertaining." 1:15 AM B/W58 minTV-G silent For Heaven's Sake (1926) In this silent film, a millionaire tries to help save souls after he falls for a young mission-worker. Dir: Sam Taylor Cast: Harold Lloyd , Jobyna Ralston , Noah Young . LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW: D: Sam Taylor. Harold Lloyd, Jobyna Ralston, Noah Young, James Mason, Paul Weigel. "Screamingly funny silent comedy has Lloyd a blase young millionaire whose crush on Ralston inspires him to help attract ``customers'' for her father's Bowery Mission. Even THE FRENCH CONNECTION hasn't dimmed the luster of Lloyd's chase climax on L.A. streets." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dir: Fritz Lang Cast: Rudolf Klein-Rogge , Gerda Maurus , Willy Fritsch . LEONARD MALTIN REVIEW: D: Fritz Lang. Rudolph Klein-Rogge, Gerda Maurus, Willy Fritsch, Lupu Pick, Fritz Rasp. "Silent spy-thriller still packs a wallop as government agent Fritsch determines to thwart seemingly-respectable Klein-Rogge, a wheelchair-bound master-fiend with an uncanny resemblance to Lenin! One of Lang's early masterpieces, aka SPIONE." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
