Get ready for laughs, romance and a dash of mischief in “For Heaven’s Sake,” starring silent comedy legend Harold Lloyd as J. Harold Manners—a carefree millionaire who loves to flaunt his fortune. But when he accidentally wrecks Brother Paul’s charity pushcart, fate takes an unexpected turn. Brother Paul uses the settlement to open the J. Harold Manners Mission—much to Manners’ dismay—until a chance meeting with Brother Paul’s charming daughter, Hope (Jobyna Ralston), changes everything. With love in the air, Manners hatches a hilarious plan to pack the mission with visitors. Lloyd’s first feature for Paramount Pictures, this 1926 gem was a box office smash in its day—and still delivers big laughs nearly a century later.Organist: Clark Wilson
