Legendary silent film star Harold Lloyd (the one who hung off the clock and did his own stunts) turned to photography when he retired from film.
The results are perfect cheesecake, with Bettie Page, Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroe looking dreamy in various states of undress. See them for yourself at the Proud Gallery in London until February 11th. Both the show and a new DVD box set of Lloyd’s film have been produced by his granddaughter, Suzanne. She revealed in a BBC interview this week that Lloyd refused to have his films rerun on television as he believed television advertisements broke up the pace. This decision meant he is less well known than his contemporaries Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin. It’s right and proper then that this legend of the silent film era should make his comeback courtesy of on-demand, digital media.
