Editorial Review: FROM THE
ORIGINAL 35mm NEGATIVES! Let's talk
about Classic Silent Film Comedy: Mack
Sennett's Keystone, Hal Roach's "Lot of
Fun," The Weiss Brothers....The Weiss
Brothers? Yes, the Weiss Brothers made
silent comedies too, and some good
ones! Starring some of the best comics
from the Golden Age of Comedy: Ben
Turpin, Snub Pollard, Jimmy Aubrey, and
Poodles Hanneford. As the Silent Era
drew to a close, the Brothers Weiss,
low-budget independent producers of
westerns and serials, entered the
silent comedy business with a
vengeance. These two-reel shorts are
forgotten little gems of laughter,
featuring several genuine comedy greats
plying their trades for the last time
before talkies came in. See Ben Turpin,
the cross-eyed Sennett star without his
teeth! See legendary circus clown
Poodles Hanneford in a tutu! See Snub
Pollard play a two-headed cow! See the
delightful "Hairbreadth Harry"
comedies, silly spoofs of old-time
melodramas! In new, sparkling transfers
from the original 35mm camera
negatives, these comedies look as fresh
and funny as when originally released,
with music by top silent film
accompanists Philip C. Carli and David
B. Drazin, and commentaries by Film
Historian Richard M. Roberts. Bonus
Features: Scene Selection, Selected
Commentaries by Richard M. Roberts,
Piano Accompaniment by Philip C. Carli
& David B. Drazin, Original account
ledgers for selected comedies, Weiss

Hunchback of Notre Dame" (UK/1923),
"Who Is Safe?" (1925), "After Six Days"
