        hilarious feature doco

        Really astonishing feature length footage of the greatest silent comedy stars and the stunt films that thrilled millions, all lovingly set in a nickelodeon and chapters for each personality and type of film. The voice over is the 'radio with pictures' type that suits and I guess seems like the Joe MacDoakes shorts or some inventor- cartoon narrator. The scenes are hilarious and exciting and reveal a rich heritage of silent movie history and the recognizable stars that made them justly famous. Each sequence is different and equally terrific. The Harry Langdon maid in the kitchen clip is fall down funny; My personal favorite is the awesome train stunt with Gloria Swanson tied to the tracks which had me screaming.

        Good Start

        When Comedy Was King (1960)

        *** (out of 4)

        Robert Youngson "documentary" showing various clips from the silent era including performers such as Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, Charles Chaplin, Buster Keaton, The Keystone Cops, Laurel and Hardy, Edgar Kennedy, Gloria Swanson, Harry Langdon, Mabel Normand among various others. The film is a good way for newbies to see these legends in their prime but for me it's rather frustrating because I'd rather be watching the entire films rather than just little clips. I also always have a problem with these sorts of things because the clips are never as funny as they are in the entire movie. Either way, a decent doc that shows how great these guys were.

        A Nostalgic Look Back At Slapstick Comedy From Yesteryear

        If you enjoy watching silent-era, slapstick comedy films, then, you're in for some real good laughs while viewing "When Comedy Was King".

        Produced by Robert Youngson - This 80-minute anthology documentary is a nostalgic tribute to the long-gone era of the sight gag where actions always spoke louder than words.

        Featuring such well-known performers as the Keystone Cops, Ben Turpin, Buster Keaton, and Laurel & Hardy - The contents of this entertaining disc also includes 3 bonus shorts for your added viewing pleasure.

        TRIBUTE TO THE FOLKS WHO INVENTED COMEDY

        Oscar winner Robert Youngson actually got his start at Warner Brothers in the 1940s producing sports short subjects. He latched onto a terrific idea as this lead to award winning short movies about crazy, daredevil stunts tied to silent movies, particularly comedy.

        The rest is history.

        This is one of the earliest film documentaries on silent screen comedy icons, although some graduated to sound films with even greater success. However, Youngson clearly wanted to accentuate the golden era of screen comedians, via a series of historical clips which are outstanding.

        More over, this film was instrumental in pushing for the preservation of silent movies. Many old films, dating back to the teens when this documentary was produced, were in need of remastering or had simply deteriorated to the point where they could not be saved. As much as this was a labor of love, this film made history itself.

        Best of the best, and not surprising, are priceless clips of Charlie Chaplin, the outrageous Keystone Cops and Buster Keaton. Honorable mention to the early days of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, whose silent films were a prelude to their classic sound films.

        Never to forget the great Fatty Arbuckle and his insane complications with pretty Mabel Normand. Fatty and Mable were the first screen male and female comedy team, and they shine.

        The gang's all here, and you'll want to see this one again.

        Remastered on dvd and blu ray for film completists and all us big kids who grew up on this stuff.

        Another good one from Youngson

        The second of the great silent comedy compilations put together by Robert Youngson, this one unlike the first 'The Golden Age of Comedy' has Chaplin & Keaton in it, something a lot of people criticised the first one for, however, I still find the first one the best of the two. Laurel & Hardy finish this film on a high note with clips from their great 'Big Business' short. Again, I find the hilarious sound effects and commentary add greatly to the enjoyment! Some say they'd rather see the complete shorts, but to me they cut out all the dull bits and get right to the parts that made them great! Either way, a great night of entertainment that blows anything on television away!

        • Anecdotes
          One of the glaring omissions from this film is the absence of Harold Lloyd. Despite being good friends with Director Robert Youngson, Lloyd did not permit Youngson to use his films. Lloyd owned the copyright to most of his films and produced his own compilations.
        • Gaffes
          At one point, narrator Dwight Weist remarks that a quarter century has passed since the death of Harry Langdon. In fact, he died in December of 1944, just over 15 years before this film was released.

          Narrator: [Last lines] So ends our visit to the era of the great silent clowns who mass-produced laughter and sold happiness and who passed into oblivian just before the years when the world needed them the most.
