The Onion Magnate's Revenge -- October 9, 2017

Moving Picture World, 20-October-2017

In his wonderful book The Silent Clowns, Walter Kerr suggested that Lloyd Hamilton was one of the great silent comics whose reputation has diminished. This is because many of the solo movies Hamilton made for Educational during the 1920s are lost. Perhaps this is also because he was not able to succeed as a star in feature films.

The Ham and Bud comedies, made with Bud Duncan, were rough and ready, but very popular.

 I like the titles.  "Politics at Pumpkin Center," "The Boot and the Loot" and "A Whirlwind of Whiskers."
