Re: Where's the Fire? (1921)
Chase and Pollard completists note that what appears to be a near-complete copy of the Snub one-reeler WHERE'S THE FIRE? (H-64), directed by Charley Parrott, is being offered for sale on eBay. A Pathegram version of the same film was up for auction earlier this year. To my knowledge it's one of the...

Re: Slapsticon 2011
I just checked the Slapsticon site and saw that Rosslyn Key Bridge is only offering discounted rates Thursday through Sunday night. If I recall, that was initially the case last year as well until one of you guys "leaned" on them and got them to extend the offer to Wednesday night. Any ch...

Re: Lou Costello on "Wagon Train" - March 2
I've never seen Dance with Me Henry, but Lou certainly pushes the limits of nausea in 30-Foot Bride of Candy Rock. Jerry Lewis in The Jazz Singer? You mean Danny Thomas? Neil Diamond? Or is Lewis's Jazz Singer the lost masterpiece he made after The Day the Clown Cried? No, Chris means Jerry Lewis, ...

Correcting Ian Elliot on rare langdon short
I saw over on that other minor silent comedy newsgroup that they are again and as usual getting their info wrong.
