This two-disc DVD collection is mastered from 35mm restoration prints overseen by The Harold Lloyd Trust, which should represent the best-surviving prints of these seven Harold Lloyd shorts and feature films.

The film is presented with a music score composed by Carl Davis, and with optional audio commentary by Suzanne Lloyd, Annette D’Agostino Lloyd and Richard Correll.

We fully expect that this collection will be the best-available editions of these wonderful films, and recommend it sight unseen.
