One of Their Best, Silent Or Sound!
28 December 2020
I thought this was the funniest Laurel and Hardy silent short I've ever watched. I would also include it as being one of their funniest against their best sound films. Like all of the shorts, it's two stories joined together. In this case the boys are in a orchestra that they destroy, then they are poor in the streets and destroy society. It's the second half that I found unexpectedly funny to the point that I was worried I may mess up some stiches I have currently on my face! It's on Prime video. The Blackhawk print they show has a synchronized soundtrack that is used to exceptional effect at the end when society is torn apart! Edgar Kennedy directed. 10 of 10.
