In An Eastern Westerner (1920), Harold Lloyd plays a wealthy, spoiled New York City boy in this two-reeler.
His parents, fed up with his nightclubbing ways, ship him off to his uncle's ranch in Piute Pass. Harold pulls into the
rootin', tootin' town and it isn't long before he has a run-in with bully "Tiger Lip" Thompkins (Noah Young. The bully is
terrorizing a virtuous young girl Mildred Davis by locking up her sick father. He'll let her dad go only if she gives in to
his lecherous wishes. Harold saves the father, and the wrathful bully is determined to get Harold. He sends his gang in
pursuit, but Harold eludes them and winds up with the girl. One especially funny bit in this comedy is when Harold
hides from the bullies in a skirt that's hanging on a clothesline.
Harold Lloyd runs afoul of some bootleg hootch in High and Dizzy. When his friend (Roy Brooks) shows him a little
distillery he has hidden away in his office, Harold is fascinated. But while they're admiring one of the bottles, the cork pops
out and the liquor begins to run over. The two men have no choice but to drink it, of course. Harold and his pal then embark
on a number of wild, drunken adventures which eventually lead them up to the ledge of a skyscraper. Things get really
interesting when Harold encounters a pretty sleepwalker (Mildred Davis) hundreds of feet above the sidewalk. Although
he's none too steady himself, Harold does his best to come to her rescue. After more than a few moments of clumsiness
and thrills, he looks down at the street and this sobers him up quick. Any similarity between the stunts in this film and
some of those in Safety Last are probably not a coincidence.
Music Composed and Conducted by
Carl Davis
Played by the
London Chamber Orchestra
"New York-born and England-based composer/conductor Carl Davis has delivered ear-catching symphonic music
for more than four decades. His dramatic scores have been performed by the Royal Shakespeare Company and
the National Theater while the pieces he composed for ballet have been utilized by the London Contemporary Theater
Company, the Sadler Wells Royal Ballet, the Northern Ballet Theater, and the English National Ballet Company.
A master at composing scores to accompany silent films, Davis has provided soundtracks for Napolean, Flesh and
the Devil, Ben-Hur, Thief of Baghdad, Greed and Intolerance, and Phantom of the Opera. His work in television
includes composing scores for Pride and Prejudice, which received a BASCA Ivor Novello Award for "best music
for a television production" in 1996. His score for the film The French Lieutenant's Woman received BAFA "original
film score" and Ivor Novello Awards. Davis' collaboration with Sir Paul McCartney on his symphonic piece "Liverpool
Oratorio" attracted worldwide attention in 1991. He conducted the piece's premier at Anglican Church.
Born to a Jewish family, with roots in Poland and Russia, Davis began studying piano at the age of seven.
He attended his first opera three years later.
After attending the New England Conservatory of Music and graduating from Bard College, Davis worked with
the New York City Opera and toured with choral conductor Robert Shaw as accompanist. He relocated to England
after marrying British actress Jean Boht in 1971.
Appointed artistic director and conductor of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra's summer pops season
in 1993, Davis serves as vice chancellor of the University of Liverpool.
Davis was made a Chevalier de L'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French ministry of culture."
