Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are the most famous comedy duo in history, and deservedly so, so I am happy to see any of their films. I should mention the word is clearly "nice mess", it's a bit odd. Stan and Ollie are on the run from the cops, and just after Colonel Wilburforce Buckshot (James Finlayson) and his servants have left the large mansion, they show up and take it for themselves. Soon enough though Lord Leopold Ambrose Plumtree (Charles K. Gerrard) and wife Lady Plumtree (Thelma Todd) show up expecting to see the Colonel, so Ollie has to pretend to be him, while Stan acts as a butler, and in drag as the maid, Agnes. Both Ollie and Stan fib all the way, until towards the end, the real Colonel comes back, and after some bickering, they escape in an animal disguise. Filled with wonderful slapstick and all classic comedy you could want from a black and white film, it is an enjoyable film. "Well, here's another nice mess you've gotten me into!" was number 60 on 100 Years, 100 Quotes, and Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were number 7 on The Comedians' Comedian. Good!
