Oliver Hardy

Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy

Media/Fox Video Dist, 1989

Laurel and Hardy's most cherished, sweet & "accessible" film
Way Out West remains one of Laurel & Hardy's most cherished, sweet and "accessible" films. Not only does its gently satirical Western plot hold up, but the comedy is as fresh and well-timed as ever, it contains one of "the boys'" best film background music scores -- ...

Laurel & Hardy: Big Business (Silent)

Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy

Image Entertainment, 1998

A popular favorite
This seems to be most peoples' favorite L&H silent. Although it's not my personal favorite, it is somewhere in my Top 5. The plot is very simple, and is pure classic slapstick. I know not everyone cares for slapstick, but a lot of people are big fans of it, and it's ...

Hollywood Party... NOBODY sleeps tonight!!!
Maybe the movie, overall, is not 5 stars, but I really enjoyed the musical number "Hollywood Party". It made me feel happy inside. THis movie is very enjoyable for a late night. I watched it on a late night during a rainstorm. Maybe it is not a truly great movie, but ...

Laurel & Hardy: Do Detectives Think (Silent)

Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy

Image Entertainment, 1998

The second false start
There's a lot of debate about what the first "true" L&H film was, and this is one of the four titles mentioned most often. This was also the first film in which they appeared wearing their familiar bowler hats and suits, and with the personalities we know and love. ...

Blockheads

Do Not Use, 1987

Why oh why hasn't this been issued on DVD?

Laurel & Hardy / Laughing 20's

Oliver Hardy, Stan Laurel

MGM (Video & DVD), 1993

Worthy of DVD Re-Release
Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were gifted comedians (some might say they were too gifted) of the classic Hollywood era, moving from silent short subjects into feature-length sound films. While their faces are still recognizable today, much of their material lays unseen ...
