Harold Lloyd: "Safety Last"- 1923 - The 1st Spiderman?

Croccydile says...

From Wiki

Lloyd kept copyright control of most of his films and re-released them infrequently after his retirement. Lloyd did not grant cinematic release because in the main most theaters could not accommodate an organist, and Lloyd did not wish his work to be accompanied by a pianist: "I just don't like pictures played with pianos. We never intended them to be played with pianos". Similarly, his features were never shown on television as Lloyd's price was high: "I want $300,000 per picture for two showings. That's a high price, but if I don't get it, I'm not going to show it. They've come close to it, but they haven't come all the way up". As a consequence, his reputation and public recognition suffered in comparison with Chaplin and Keaton, whose work has generally been more available.

Oh dear, something tells me he would not approve of this version Thankfully his work has gotten more recognition as of recently.

Now if only someone could stumble across that elusive copy of Cleopatra...

I had a cheapo low quality VHS of Laurel and Hardy when I was little my parents would let me watch and recently the same short got a restoration, the difference was night and day. Preserve the classics!
