Endearing Harold Lloyd.
24 March 2016
Warning: Spoilers
In From Hand to Mouth, Harold Lloyd plays a broke drifter who constantly get's in trouble with the law over petty thefts. Meanwhile a young woman (Mildred Davis) is having trouble with her inheritance, and a corrupt lawyer (who's so corrupt he even hired a gang to kidnap Davis) isn't about to make that any easier. When a gang brings Lloyd in, and they rob Davis's house, Lloyd meets Davis and eventually helps her secure her inheritance. It's a good short film, and the story endears us. With all the typical Lloyd slapstick and run-on scenes, From Hand to Mouth is an example of Lloyd's talented comedy. If you're a fan of Lloyd, or silent comedies in general, I highly recommend From Hand to Mouth.
