Movie Clip

Repeat Performance (1947) — (Movie Clip) People Do Live Things Over We have reason to infer that William (Richard Basehart) may be lover as well as friend to actress Sheila (Joan Leslie) to whom she’s just confessed, at a New Year’s party, to killing her husband, prompting them to visit her intrepid producer Friday (Tom Conway) when things get metaphysical, John Ireland narrating, in Repeat Performance, 1947.
Wizard Of Oz, The (1925) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Townsfolk Of Oz Opening and scarcely resembling the 1939 approach or the novel, director and star Larry Semon comments, then appears un-credited as the toymaker, introducing the story device with grand-daughter Jean Johnston, and in Oz, Josef Swickard, Virginia Pearson and Otto Lederer, all unfamiliar characters, in The Wizard Of Oz, 1925.
Why Worry? (1923) -- (Movie Clip) I Have A Great Doctor! Established as a famous affluent hypochondriac, Harold (Lloyd) in his first scene boards the liner for South America with his butler (Wallace Howe) and devoted nurse (Jobyna Ralston, in her first of many roles as his love interest), who sets his heart aflutter, in Why Worry?, 1923.
Why Worry? (1923) -- (Movie Clip) Prisoners To Be Shot In South American "Paradiso," oblivious to the revolt being staged by crooked Yankee mercenaries, idle-rich hypochondriac Harold (Lloyd) complains to the ringleader (Jim Mason) about his hotel, local giant Colosso (John Aasen) also introduced, early in Why Worry?, 1923.
Why Worry? (1923) -- (Movie Clip) I Need More Ballast Recuperating in a South American republic, still not aware of the revolt around him, hypochondriac Harold (Lloyd), befriended by the benevolent giant Colosso (John Aasen), is determined to help his new pal with his toothache, in Lloyd's last film for Hal Roach, Why Worry?, 1923.
Murder! (1930) -- (Movie Clip) About Three Doors Down Opening scenes, director Alfred Hitchcock in one of his earliest sound films, conveying the sense of not only an artist but also, perhaps, a comedian, at work, in Murder!, 1930, Diana Baring the apparent culprit.
Murder! (1930) -- (Movie Clip) Save Her Soul Notable scene, often cited as the first in a sound film in which an actor's inner thoughts are expressed through voice-over, Sir John (Herbert Marshall) having doubts about that day's verdict, director Alfred Hitchcock also using a live orchestra off-camera, in Murder!, 1930.
Murder! (1930) -- (Movie Clip) Rex v. Diana Baring Director Alfred Hitchcock's elliptical coverage of the trial of distraught actress Nora Baring (playing "Diana" Baring), hero Herbert Marshall first seen as a juror, Esme Chaplin the prosecutor, Amy Brandon-Thomas for the defense, still early in Murder!, 1930.
Murder! (1930) -- (Movie Clip) From Sir John Himself! Itinerant actors and witnesses Ted and Doucie (Edward Chapman, Phyllis Konstam) are bluffing when they tell their landlady they expect to be hired by Sir John (Herbert Marshall), stunned when he actually sends a message, as he begins his investigation, in Alfred Hitchcock's Murder!, 1930.
Chump At Oxford, A (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Salad Undressed Desperate for work, Oliver Hardy and now-tipsy Stan Laurel have taken work as a butler and maid, fouling up the party hosted by "Baldy" and Mrs. Vandevere (James Finlayson, Anita Garvin), in the Hal Roach feature A Chump At Oxford, 1940.
Chump At Oxford, A (1940) -- (Movie Clip) Professor Einstein Stan Laurel, having been knocked on the head, has adopted the personality of Oxford's legendary and long-lost hero Lord Paddington, therefore treats pal Oliver Hardy as a servant, and receives the supplicant dean (Wilfred Lucas), in A Chump At Oxford, 1940.
Sea Hawk, The (1924) -- (Movie Clip) He Called Me Coward In England, Sir Oliver (Milton Sills) is forced to duel with neighbor Sir John (Marc McDermott), despite his being the guardian of his betrothed Rosamund (Enid Bennett), her brother Peter (Wallace MacDonald) much aggrieved, early in The Sea Hawk, 1924.
