Laurel and Hardy - The Battle of the Century (1927) - The Pie Fight

The film involved over 3,000 cream pies; its second reel was missing for decades until its rediscovery in 2015.

I can't decide whether or not to go and see the film. I've watched the trailers and it looks good but then again I'm not sure about seeing two actors play the roles  of probably the finest comedy double act of all time.

Other than Morecambe and Wise, obviously

I saw the premier and it was superb, by the time the film ends you've forgotten you were watching actors.

Watched again a few of their clips earlier on today.

Still find them funny.

Visited the Laurel and Hardy Museum in Ulverston a couple of times.

Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

Laurel & Hardy - How to climb a wall (Night Owls)

Comedy genius!

Hard to pick a number one fav but the one in the sawmill is up there for me. 

The clip about the rent "is that the money that I gave to you to give to him" 

On the boat.

The Piano.

Just so many classic moments

I never rated Abbott and Costello who were also huge ply popular in their day. Just saw them as a poor mans Laurel and Hardy.

However, I was shown a scetch of theirs called Who's On First and it changed my opinion of them. Of course, of its time but silly and funny. 

50 cents and 2 tens for a 5 are also a good chuckle.

Not up there with Laurel and Hardy, but I can now at least appreciate why they were so popular.

“If you must make a noise, make it quietly.”


Laurel and Hardy quote

 

[Dixon]

Those fleeting moments where Oliver says nothing and just looks straight at the camera.
