The Little Rascals is widely regarded as one of the best-known and most successful series in cinema history. Noted for showing children behaving in a relatively natural way - while child actors are often groomed to imitate adult acting styles, steal scenes, or deliver "cute" performances, Hal Roach and original director Robert F. McGowan worked to film the unaffected, raw nuances apparent in regular kids. Volume 1 includes 10 Hal Roach talking shorts spanning from 1929-1930.
