THE ADVENTURES OF LAUREL & HARDY 1934 Oldies Television

When silent movies became talkies, many silent film comedy stars found the transitional from physical only to physical and verbal difficult. For Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, it was a cinch to keep theater goers laughing in the aisles. In the 1950's and early 60's, the dawn of Television breathed new life into 30's comedy shorts and short features as they became a staple on local television stations on weekend afternoons and the Laurel & Hardy comedies drew the largest audience. This 1934 Hal Roach production saw Stan & Ollie in misadventures, from believing they struck it rich in inheritance to almost setting fire to their unpaid hotel room with odd cooking methods and winding up in the Scotland Yard lockup messing up every job assigned to them. Enjoy!
