The Silent Films of Harry Langdon (1923-1928) by James L. Neibaur (English) Hard

Extensively reviewing the comedian's silent screen work film by f.. Harry Langdon was a silent screen comedian unlike any other. Slower in pace, more studied in movement, and quirkier in nature, Langdon challenged the comic norm by offering comedies that were frequently edgy and often surreal.

Extensively reviewing the comedian's silent screen work film by film, Neibaur makes the case that Langdon should be accorded the same lofty status as his contemporaries: Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. With fascinating insights into the work of an under-appreciated artist, this book will be of interest to both fans and scholars of silent cinema. Neibaur is a film historian and educator who has written several books on film, including The Fall of Buster Keaton (2010) and Early Charlie Chaplin (2011), both published by Scarecrow Press.
