A film made before Lloyd became the likable guy the public loved.

The premise to "Look Pleasant, Please" is quite funny. Unfortunately, it was made early in Harold Lloyd when he played mostly unlikable jerks...and the sweet 1920s version of Harold could have made this a much better short film.

The film stars the usual trio from this period in Lloyd's career...Harold, Bebe Daniels and Snub Pollard...along with a few others. It is set at a photographer's studio...and the photographer is a perv who cannot keep his greasy hands off pretty ladies. One of them (Daniels) is so incensed at him that she calls her jealous husband...who vows to kill the photographer.

In the meantime, Harold is running from the police for swindling customers at his grocery store. He ducks into the photography studio and the photographer leaves Harold in charge and runs! Now, poor Harold has to contend with not only customers who he has no idea how to help but a homicidal husband.

As I said above, Harold's character is NOT a nice guy but a real jerk...so there is no sympathy for him and his plight. Still, despite this problem the film has quite a few funny moments and is a must-see for Lloyd fans. Non-fans should instead look for his later and much better work.
