Upp genom luften (DVD)

NOMINATED AS ONE OF THE 10 FUNNIEST FILMS IN HISTORY

by eight top critics in the BBC's 2017 poll

The cinema audience in 1923 had never seen anything like it! First they roared with laughter. Then they screamed in terror. And then they fainted! 100 years later, nothing as thrilling and funny has been made... or as dangerous! When Harold Lloyd climbs the outside of a skyscraper or hangs from the hands of a clock in a death-defying stunt, it is done without extensive safety measures, without back projection, and definitely without a single computer pixel.

UP THROUGH THE AIR was a huge success in 1923 and made Lloyd more popular than both Chaplin and Keaton. The film's climax has gone down in history as the most iconic of the silent film era and has been "imitated" in films by/with Jackie Chan, Martin Scorsese, Robert Zemeckis, and Sylvester Stallone and, of course, in The Jönsson Gang's Gold Rush!

”THE MOST FAMOUS SCENE OF THE SILENT FILM ERA IS JUST ONE OFNGA FANTASTISKA STUNDER I VAD SOM KAN VARA DEN MEST BRILJANTA KOMISKA HÖJDPUNKTEN I FILMHISTORIEN”

Chicago Reader, 2013

”A PIECE OF COMIC ARCHITECTURE. IT'S PERFECT."
