Number, Please? screening, Sunday, February 19, 2011, 6:30pm
Jim Reid and Bruce Calvert will be presenting a program of silent comedies at the First United Methodist Church of Richardson on Sunday, February 19th at 6:30 p.m. The church is located at 503 North Central Expressway Richardson, TX 75080.

Admission is $2.00, and popcorn will be provided.
First, it’s all Buster all the time as Buster Keaton plays all the parts in a vaudeville show including the audience and the trained monkey in The Playhouse (1921). He’s also in love with an identical twin, but her sister can’t stand him and Buster can’t tell the two apart. Next, Harold Lloyd wants a date with Mildred Davis at an amusement park, but he’s got to get her mother’s permission first in Number Please (1920). Unfortunately, the local pickpocket has stolen Mildred’s purse, and when the police get close he sticks it in Harold’s pocket! Finally, it’s Movie Night (1929) for the Charley Chase household, where Charley gets his teenage brother-in-law to dress as a little kid so he doesn’t have to pay for an adult ticket. It’s a tough night when you can’t find a seat, and your daughter gets a loud case of the hiccups.
Safety Last screening, Friday, January 20, 2012, 7:30pm Pacific
Safety Last, Stanford, Friday, 7:30. Harold Lloyd’s iconic image, hanging from a large clock high over a city street, comes from this boy-makes-good-by-risking-his- neck fairytale. Lloyd made better pictures, but even run-of-the-mill Lloyd is damn funny. And once he starts climbing that building, there’s nothing run-of-the-mill about this Lloyd. The laughs–and thrills–don’t stop. On a double-bill with Hot Water, another Lloyd feature, but one that I haven’t seen in decades. Dennis James will accompany both movies on the Stanford’s Wurlitzer organ.
