A noted athlete and stuntman, Douglas Fairbanks Sr. insisted on doing all of his own stunts b/c he felt audiences would be able to tell if it wasn’t him. This led to the elaborate set to be constructed in a way that helped him achieve these feats

“Robin Hood” (1922) was the first ever film to receive what we now consider to be a standard huge Hollywood premiere night at Grauman’s Egyptian Theater w/ dozens of members of the press there, fans seeking autographs, a red carpet.. the works.
