Donation to ADSW's Vitaphone preservation fund recommended
Enjoy this Vitaphone musical comedy, the second movie based on the popular Harold Teen comic strip by Carl Ed. Cub reporter Harold Teen (Broadway dancer Hal Le Roy) tries to get the big story and win the heart of Lillums Lovewell (Rochelle Hudson). Actors Chick Chandler, Douglass Dumbrille, Patricia Ellis, Hugh Herbert, and Guy Kibbee provide plenty of complications. Songs by Sammy Fain and Irving Kahal.
Vitaphone Restoration Film Series
ADSW's bimonthly film series is a fundraising effort to support the restoration of vintage Vitaphone shorts by the Vitaphone Project. Each $4,500 raised will fund the professional restoration of a short at UCLA's Film and Television Archives. Although admission to the films will be free, attendees are asked to make a contribution to our Vitaphone restoration fund.
ADSW will select from a list of shorts awaiting restoration, and will receive a copy of each short restored. The series will offer a combination of feature films and musical shorts.
Screenings will be held the second Tuesday of every other month:
- December 11, 2007: First a Girl
- February 12, 2008: Vitaphone Shorts featuring black entertainers
- March 11, 2008: Vitaphone Shorts (repeated due to ice storm)
- April 8, 2008: Madam Satan
- June 10, 2008: Ramblin' Round Radio Row
- September 9, 2008: Harold Teen (cancelled)
Screenings will resume when a new venue is selected.
