They just don't make comedy like this anymore, such a timeless classic. Absolute genius performance so skillfully performed. Every time I watch this doesn't fail to amuse.
Yeh! Nice! They already had color in those days, yes? IT IS BULL SH.T. I have the original copy om 16 mm. Now that's something. And this..? Is a very bad colorised copy. Gat NOTHING to do do with the original from those days. The feeling en lafters are completely GONE!
Yeah, some of the best comedy's are great because of expressions, it's not just about humour and mishaps, it's the expressions that make them stand out
The greatest comedy team ever. And they were good singers. I once met and talked to Stan Laurel's daughter Lou's. A fine lady with many fond memories of her dad and Babe as she called Ollie.
Two of the best comedic gods, their timing was superb........whether you watched them in the 20's or one hundred years from now, their appeal will endure.
Stan’s deep voice was provided by none other than Chill Wills. That was him doing the lead singing with the Avalon Boys in the earlier clip where the boys did their dance. Chill Wills went on to be a totally respected and later veteran Hollywood film actor in his own right.
....parents and grandparents duty to give their children and grandchildren lessons on wonderful humanity Stan &Oli still transport all over the world. World heritage! Heaven has splendid times with them!
I remember this getting to number two in the UK charts, only prevented from being no.1 by Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody! It was always a joy to watch their old films being shown in the 1970s - the success of this song was an unexpected bonus.
Always brilliant. They will be for the rest of time. I didn't know Stan Laurel created Laurel and Hardy. He'd read through the scripts, if he'd think it was funny enough he'd change it, sometimes re-writing the whole story. I just read that on the Net. I really had no idea. How amazing.
I remember as a kid watching the old black and white repeats of L&H on the mornings of the school holidays. And how we all LOVED them! Laurel and Hardy, 2 funny gentlemen and 2 funny, gentle, men.
Thank you kaureo and Hardy you have gave me many many many memories with me dear nana it was the last song I sang to her as she laid to rest forever grateful 🙏 ❤
Still a family favorite for us; one of the 1st songs my son learned and sang when he was 5 years old (almost 35 years ago). Being a lifelong L&H fan, had to make sure he and my daughter had lots of exposure to their talent & timeless comedy.
The comedy kings at work this time singing there was no end to their talents. Theres only one Laurel and Hardy I can watch them over and over again they never fail to make me laugh.
Their last film was Utopia in about 1951. They may be long gone, but they will never be forgotten. Their comedy will continue to be passed down from generation to generation. Comedy legends.
The last film utopia, 1951, the lady in the film, Suzy delair is 104 years old, the lads especially Stan looked gaunt, he had an illness of some sort, they were both brilliant comedians.
The best you’ll ever see, from silent to the age of the talkies, how lucky are we to have access to the genius of Mr Laurel and Mr Hardy, God love them x
Ollie had a great singing voice, much better than Stan. What makes this clip do funny is the expressions on Ollie's face, especially when stans voice changes to bass-baritone then to soprano. Stan was am inspired clown but Ollie was a truly great comic actor.
No comedians, ACTORS! Real actors, not like the shits of today called "stars". The real cinema is behind us and we will never find such actors and such beautiful comedies again. Wars, violence, vampires, etc. that's SHIT now. Neither this wonderful couple, nor Chaplin, Keaton and others greats, received any Oscars during their period of activities, if not one for Laurel and Chaplin and Keaton - (only honorific award) when it is given to shitty comedians like Dujardin and other such nullity. oliver Hardy never Oscar winner, why?
That's what you call real talent I remember as a child my mother and father used to sit us down to watch laurel and hardy films not like the crap today
What legends ! Watched the movie of their trip to the Uk last night with Steve Coogan as Stan . It was wonderful and sad . Eric Morcombe said if you don’t like Stan and Ollie you don’t like people . They were wonderful and so were Morcombe and Wise !!
I grew up watching Laurel and Hardy on telly. Now in this wonderful age of technology I can enjoy them whenever I want. 'Scram' and 'Night Owls' are my favourites along with 'Our Relations'
These boys bring back memories of Saturdays watching them on the TV that only had 5 or 6 stations, while my parents warned us of going blind if we DON'T SIT BACK!!
He certainly can sing can Oliver,,just the way he looks at the camera with that look,,Stan was born to play this part,,, If you get the chance to Stan and Olly it shows how,,sad the end of their career came and how they stayed best friends even through tough times it's an amazing film,,Steve coogan and John c Riley where fantastic
One of my all time faves from their Movies, brought up in the 70's on Laurel and Hardy shown on BBC2 here in UK, and was shown for many years, along with Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton, but these were always my faves, couple of Christmases a go my brothers treated me to the boxset on DVD.
First time I heard this was on an orcs in space video by Oxhorn. Didn't realize it was a Laurel and Hardy bit. Good to know that some classics still get new life now and then.
Steph - do you know the second verse? : I can hear the tinkling waterfall Far among the hills Bluebirds sing each so merrily To his mate in rapture trills They seem to say "Your June is lonesome too" Longing fills her eyes She is waiting for you patiently Where the pine tree sighs In the...............
That's wonderful, I grew up in the years BC,before cable, and where I lived there was a TV station that had Sunday programming which included Laurel &Hardy, Shirley Temple movies, and Blondie and Dagwood, and Francis The Talking Mule with Donald O'Connor
I am dedicating this song to my old school friends who are both sisters as I hope to see them both again as they told you both that I was dead as this song is called The Trail Of The Lonesome Pine as it was from the movie Way Out West as it is to welcome you both back into my life forever to Chris Marie and Hester Brand from Billyxxxxx
