Harold Lloyd scales new comic heights in For Heaven’s Sake (1926), a whirlwind romantic comedy packed with daring stunts, frantic misunderstandings, and the kind of breathless energy that made Lloyd one of silent cinema’s biggest stars. When a carefree millionaire unexpectedly finds purpose—and love—through a struggling mission in the city’s rougher neighborhoods, chaos and hilarity follow in equal measure. Fast-paced, charming, and wildly inventive, the film showcases Lloyd at his most irresistible.
