Harold Lloyd   1893-1971

This page is for my father and my mother,

who took me to see so many wonderful films

in the late 1960s - early 1970s,

including Lloyd's "Safety Last",

and who offered me my first Super 8 camera

and my first 24x36 camera.

Harold Lloyd in the 1923 movie “Safety Last!”

A safety net was constructed on a roof

about one floor below the action,

though the scene was shot to look

as though there was a sheer drop

to the bustling streets far below.

A Man Hanging From a Clock.

Yes, It’s That Silent Film.

“Safety Last!,” the 1923 Harold Lloyd movie

best known for the dangerous scene,

marks its centennial.
