Charley Chase 1927 Silents on HBO Max

[Richard M Roberts]

Hey Gang,

For anyone who has HBO Max, just letting you know that the restored Charley Chase 1927 Roach Silents we put out last year on Blu-Ray are now available for streaming on HBO Max. They were sold to TCM earlier this year for broadcast on that channel at some point and they put them up on the streaming channel.

Late Silents Blu-ray dropped to $15.99 at Amazon

I just order another copy (my third overall) to give as gift.

Thanks for the Blu-Ray plug Riff, and if anyone has neither HBO Max or a Blu-Ray player, most of those 1927 Charley Chase shorts, as well as many Charley Chase, Harry Langdon and Thelma Todd/Zasu Pitts comedies are now up on The Sprocket Vaults Youtube Channel:

So I think we did pretty well in getting those Charley Chase 1927 shorts back before the world, considering before last year, most of them were basically unavailable to be seen. You're welcome.

I don't know if anyone caught it, but I've been informed that TCM ran our restoration of THERE AIN'T NO SANTA CLAUS somewhere within their Christmas programming the last few days. Not bad, we got that one back into the Holiday mainstream. Once again, you're welcome.

On Sunday Night, July 5th, TCM ran as part of their Silent Sundays Program the second in a series of selections of our restorations of the 1927 Charley Chase Hal Roach shorts they have presented in the last few months, and host Jacqueline Stewart gave our set a good plug. So once again, we have done our part to get these films back before the public getting them the laughs they so richly earned.

As usual, you're welcome.
