RIALTO, AND REGENT, EPSOM
“SPEEDY” Harold Lloyd is now at the Rialto and Regent (Epsom) Theatres, in his latest picture, “Speedy.” and it may well be recorded that the bespectacled comedian has succeeded again in surpassing his previous successes with his latest offering. As typical of all Harold Lloyd productions, entirely new and highly humorous situations and ‘’gags” have been injected, which serve to stamp the comeI dian as the great- ; est in motion pic- | t ures to-day, and ! probably for some ! time to come. I “Speedy is every - ! thing the name implies. It is a fast-moving story, | which keeps the patron sitting on the ! edge of his chair every minute. To ! the dyed-in-the-wool movie fan, he ! may assume there is nothing new left ! in movie craft that would smack of the I novel, but in “Speedy” that fan is due for a most welcome surprise. Harold has fairly outdone himself along these j lines. ! “Laugh. Clown. Laugh.” an imI mensely powerful story of the stage, { starring Lon Chaney, is also being [ shewn.
