Tuesday, January 24 at 7:30pm Members $9 / Public $13

In For Heaven's Sake, legendary comedian Harold Lloyd is a spoiled, rich young man who falls in love with Hope, a poor missionary's daughter. He rather reluctantly helps her out by populating the mission with local low-lifes who chase him through the streets into the mission, where they hide out from the cops. He is so successful in helping the mission and rehabilitating the local thugs, that he plans to marry Hope. Harold's wealthy chums, dismayed that he is marrying beneath his station, kidnap the poor fellow to prevent him
from making a "mistake." The climactic chase on a double-decker bus driven by drunks is as hilarious and exciting a piece of celluloid as has ever been produced, but it is merely the capper to an uninterrupted stream of brilliant sight gags. For Heaven's Sake is one of the cleverest
and most consistently entertaining of all of Lloyd's silent comedies. USA, 1926, 61 mins., 35mm print courtesy of Harold Lloyd Entertainment
