| User ReviewThomas PNot my favourite Laurel & Hardy film but still a classic. It's the best sort of comedy because anyone can laugh at it. Unlike things like stand up you don#t need to understand everything to find it funny. Every little gesture these two do is hilarious. As usual there is a great cast of characters. Sme faces you will recognise if yu have watched L & H episodes in the past. this is a great comedic film and is worth watching for basically anybody. |
| User ReviewWilliam WA solid full-length work by Laurel and Hardy that just may be a tad too sophisticated for their audience at the time. It still works, mainly due to an excellent supporting cast and the hilarity of seeing Stan pretend he's drunk, trying to siphon wine into bottles. |
| User ReviewMichael TLaurel and Hardy play two gipsies who end up having to raise the child of a prince who was kidnapped by the evil wife of one of them. Though the film has its flaws in pacing and narrative, it has some of the blackest gags and darkest humor the duo ever exhibited in their films. |
| User ReviewSimon DA good laugh, especially Stan bottling the wine, that's a classic scene. |
