Bog beskrivelse

At first glance, Lloyd Hamilton was a large, baby-faced comic who walked like a duck. To the trained eye, Hamilton demonstrated keen timing and an inventive mind, providing wry humor rich in emotion during his 20 year career. Perhaps most importantly, Hamilton was greatly admired by his fellow comics, receiving praise from the likes of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton.

This book explores Hamilton''s life and work, beginning with his conservative, middle-class childhood and continuing through the comic''s entry into show business as a theatre extra, his most memorable role as half of silent comedy''s "Ham and Bud" duo, and his first feature film, The Darker Self. The author examines Hamilton''s private life and alcoholism and the decline of his health and career, which led to his death at the age of 43. The book includes exclusive photographs from the Hamilton family, a filmography with detailed plot descriptions, many behind-the-scenes facts, and an analysis of Hamilton''s critical lost feature film A Self-Made Failure.
