#TalkieTuesday - Yesterday we showed you Elsie Ames doing Buster’s famous ‘Butcher Boy’ fall. Today we give you a quote from Eleanor, describing the stunt with clips showing Buster performing his gravity-defying two-legs-on-the-bar trick over the years.

Uncle Mod! I haven't watched it yet because I have no time, but I've just heard of an indie slapstick comedy called Hundreds of Beavers which is a weird homage of looney toons and Buster Keaton silent film acting and honestly I think you'd like it lots
oh so this is RIGHT up my street huh

For Heaven's Sake (1926), one of the great Harold Lloyd comedies, was partly filmed at the corner of Hudson and Hollywood Blvd.
Extra trivia about this spot:
Stan Laurel lived in the Hillview, located on the southwest corner, when he first moved to town.
Today the southeast corner features a mural of the classic Hollywood starlet Dolores del Rio.
