Criterion has announced a December 8th street date for both versions of Harold Lloyd's Speedy on DVD and Blu-Ray.
Originally released as part of a long discontinued Harold Lloyd box set put out by New Line in 2005, this marks the debut of the slapstick silent comedy as part of the Criterion Collection as well as on Blu.
Like past Criterion releases, the DVD will be a 2-disc set while the Blu-ray will be a single disc.
Bonus features are planned to accompany each disc (below).
Speedy was the last silent feature to star Harold Lloyd-and one of his very best.
The slapstick legend reprises his 'Glasses Character,' this time as a good-natured but scatterbrained New Yorker who can't keep a job. He finally finds his true calling when he becomes determined to help save the city's last horse-drawn trolley, which is operated by his sweetheart's crusty grandfather.
From its joyous visit to Coney Island to its incredible Babe Ruth cameo to its hair-raising climactic stunts on the city's streets, Speedy is an out-of-control love letter to New York that will have you grinning from ear to ear.
