Episode 20 - Making "For Heaven's Sake" with Annette D'Agostino Lloyd (part one) — The Man In The Glasses: The Harold Lloyd Podcast

Harold Lloyd biographer Annette D'Agostino Lloyd is helping us celebrate the 100th birthday of "For Heaven's Sake"! (released April 1, 1926)

In the fall of 1925, "The Freshman" is breaking records for Lloyd at the box office while Harold his writers are prepping their first film for Paramount, a concept which takes a surprising evolution into a future classic.

When the have to jettison the project, they're left wondering what kind of story to tell. The evolution of that story and its echoes in a lifelong dedication which begins for Lloyd in 1926.

As the regular crew and cast assemble, Jobyna Ralston elevates the film in a rich role as "Hope," and Noah Young delivers a star turn as antagonist-turned-sidekick "Bull."

The difference between two-camera and multi-take shooting for the international releases. How Harold shot differently from Roach and others, and the differences in the final versions.

Plus: Constantine Romanoff, Arthur Houseman, and Foster Brooks.
