A silent short film of Laurel and Hardy

A silent short film of Laurel and Hardy. Pure comedy.

A transitional short - silent, but with pronounced

A transitional short - silent, but with pronounced sound effects - from a moment when the relationship between the stars still wasn't entirely set in stone: here, Ollie would rather spend time at home with the missus than go out and about with his pal, and visibly cringes when he sees Stanley marching up the front path. This first reel goes on to explore the myriad ways of destroying one's front room on a lazy Sunday afternoon (letting Stan in is a start); the second takes to an unlikely golf course in what looks like the Cali desert, where we get many of the expected gags involving clubs, balls and water hazards, and a final mudfight that plays like an abdication of comic responsibility. Not bad, but they'd do better.

How do you get a husband to stay home? Answer: Break his legs!

This early Laurel and Hardy short is one of those movies that slipped through the net until I caught it for the first time today. And I really enjoyed it. Stan seems a little sharper than usual as he tries to tempt Ollie to the golf course (in real life Oliver was a golf fanatic) and there are some fine comic touches to be had.Exhibit A: Ollie's "There's a right way to do it and a wrong way." And I know what way you're choosing Oliver! Exhibit B: Ollie trying to follow Stan in jumping the fence.Exhibit C: Edgar Kennedy gains a new, er hair extension. Didn't even recognise him until his wig fell off! There's also, of course, a brief scene where the boys haven't enough cash to pay for the drinks of their new female companions, a scene that was reworked to better effect in Men Of War. The mud fight at the end isn't as funny as similar scenes in other L & H films, but overall this is an enjoyable little short.
