Toronto Silent Film Festival: Safety Last!

Welcome to the new Roaring Twenties

Our annual “Laugh Therapy” January screening is the penultimate thrill comedy! No one epitomized the attitude of the 1920s more than Harold Lloyd. Looking like the boy next door, his series of highly inventive and successful comedies often fused thrills with laughter.

In Safety Last! a publicity stunt gone awry forces our store clerk hero to climb up the side of a building. Up he goes and with every step or misstep more gasp inducing thrills for audiences until he arrives at the big clock. Will Harold complete his mission and win over the girl of his dreams or has he run out of time!
