Here is the new trailer for the re-release of Harold Lloyd’s all time classic SAFETY LAST!
Even if you’ve not seen the film, or even heard of Lloyd, you will most likely have seen the iconic image of The Man clinging onto a clock face as he hangs perilously from the side of a building. To commemorate the movie’s 90th anniversary, Janus Films have painstakingly transferred the masterpiece from an original nitrate print to a new, fully restored digital version. Not only that, but Carl Davis’ score has also been lovingly preserved and together, they will grace cinemas across the summer, giving a new audience a rare chance to catch one of the all time great silent era movies in theatres.
Hang on tight for the trailer:
SAFETY LAST! was directed by Fred C Newmeyer and Sam Taylor. It was produced by Hal Roach and of course stars Harold Lloyd. It will be showing in selected US cinemas from April until July (details can be found here), alas there are no plans for UK distribution as yet. Have a poster.
