I dont say this often but i genuinely believe Stan and Oliver would be proud of what these two remarkable actors have done in their honor. I could go into lots of detail about why this scene is so great. But this is officially my new favourite movie, saw it when it first came out and I will be there cash in hand for when DVD sales go live. I have been a fan of Laurel and Hardy since i was a small child. I have their collective works on DVD (Laurel and Hardy Collection) I saw this movie with my uncle, he hadn't seen their movies like i had, and wasn't caught up on all the references. I was in pieces during these last few minutes and while lots of people probably saw two men just doing a funny dance (most likely not everyone in the movie theaters were all Laurel and Hardy fans) I was in floods of tears because I knew what these final few minutes of the film represented. Its a good thing there are no character limits in RUclips Comments XD, thanks for reading my thoughts
I 100% Agree I watched with a massive lump in my throat, my Grandmother was a little girl at Stan N' Ollie's peak, and I admit I cried...and smiled as I for a brief few minutes felt and pictured my Grandma....dancing. Thanks for sharing.
RIP Stan Laurel (June 16, 1890 - February 23, 1965), aged 74 And RIP Oliver Hardy (January 18, 1892 - August 7, 1957), aged 65 You both will be remembered as legends.
This is the only ending to a film that has almost made me cry. They were true legends and Steve Coogan and John Reily were robbed of an Oscar for this film.
Me too I cried so much with tears of joy and in a way pride in them they beat the odds and finished to a brilliant reprised version of their second most popular song and I'm only 14 this is an incredible film
I always watch this with tears in my eyes, but smiling at the same time. You'd be hard pressed today to find a double act so committed to each other, RIP boys. You were and are, still loved by fans old and new.
& the silent, reassuring moment between the 2 wives. All 4 characters said more without saying anything at all. Exquisite eye to emotional detail. Ollie's brave endurance w/ the sweat pouring off him...Stan's hesitancy & affection...the shadows symbolizing their decline...Just brilliant.
Amazing movie and beautiful scene, I love how the director focuses on their shadows multiple times, literally looks just like them watching over the actors passing the torch.
I was born in early 60's.. and black and white TV showed so much L&H, almost compulsory viewing.. Saturday mornings, afternoons etc... it was always on.... Always a different one... I certainly count my blessings.. I feel honoured to have been made to laugh by them and their Zany ways... R.I.P you 2 Stars
It's a sad but happy ending to me. Knowing Ollie would be gone soon after. But at same time. The two of them still had it, and could still bring down the house. All of my child hood idols are all long gone. Laurel and Hardy, Buster Keaton, The Three Stooges, Clayton Moore, Roy Rogers, and John Wayne. Today there's not a tenth of the talent, charisma, charm, class and pure love for their fans and work today that these men had.
I heard that when Stan retired he allowed his phone number to be listed and would actually talk to fans on the phone and have full conversations with them.
E così qui finisce la nostra Storia, la Nostra Leggenda, essi per il Pubblico erano Meritevoli di Applausi, per Hal Roach un'immensa fonte di Guadagno, per le Telecamere erano dei meravigliosi e buffissimi soggetti da filmare e per un proiettore da proiettare sullo schermo di un cinema ma per noi saranno Sempre Stanlio e Ollio.
As a Laurel & Hardy fan, I went to the theater to see this movie with some trepidation. What a wonderful and beautiful surprise. I have watched John & Steve in this film several times since and am grateful to them and the makers of this film for bringing back Stan & Ollie. They all did right by the Boys.
I’m an 82 year old woman with tears in my eyes and a stirring in my heart after watching this wonderful depiction of Stan and Ollie. I grew up watching them on TV and to this day they make me laugh. Such blessings to our lives.❤
It's always bittersweet watching this type of movie seeing two great comedy legends knowing that they don't get nearly as much love as some other duos. But the thing that made these two really special for me was in spite of the arguments, the lack of success with their last movies and every other struggle they went through was their long lasting friendship. Despite not being as well known as they once were, their influence is still being felt to this day, from a legendary actor who read a special prayer at Stan's funeral to the catchphrase of one of TV funniest cartoon characters to another famous actor who had similar friendship to these two and when his friend departed he took a similar vow to Stan's never to portray one of his most iconic characters ever again without him. My dad introduced me to these two and if I ever have kids of my own I will be sure to introduce them to Stan and Ollie as well.
This scene is fantastic, Jon S. Baird is fantastic in his direction here. It seems sweet but is so powerfully saddening. As Ollie pulls Stan off the stage for the line “I’ll miss us when we’re gone”, you see the moment that Stan becomes overwhelmed with emotion and reverts to hide behind his act by replying with a quip, showing that he is incapable of normal human interaction and is always trying to entertain/ is scared to show his true feelings. Next, comes the camera lingering on their shadows on the stage. I’ve always been fascinated why they chose to shot the climax like this- as I thought it offered no real spectacle. However, this is not the point. It lingers on the shadow because it’s showing us they are literally “shadows” of their former selves. Fallen from the silver screen to the hard wooden floors of a UK theatre tour. The shadow itself represents the timelessness; no wrinkles, no defects just an iconic silhouette of a double act still beloved around the world today. Immortal. Lastly, the position on the camera behind them. This offers a similar interpretation, although the audience is obscured by the lights. It doesn’t want us to think of the audience of that specific show but a universal one- the audience of future generations that still watches them today, and will continue to forever. That central light in the middle of them as the dance finishes is like a light at the end of the tunnel. This is the dog end of their career and they’re finally coming to an end. Not only was their star power dying, but so where they. This is only solidified by the text to come up after saying how Ollie died several months after, leaving that image of the two dancing into the light seared into the audiences minds. With a final loving exchange towards each other; the film ends, as does their story. Surrounded by laughter and cheers, but penniless till their last days. A fantastic film, even if you’re not a fan of Laurel and Hardy.
Thank you so much for posting this, I bawled like a baby at this scene :-( Ollie died the year I was born 1957, but my father made sure my brother and I were indoctrinated into the world of Stan & Ollie.
If what i read is correct. This scene was filmed on the very stage Stan and Ollie gave their final performance on. It was brilliant using the silhouette and shadows of ths actors playin Stan and Ollie. Made me feel like i was watching the actual Stan and Ollie one last time.
Beautiful film and fantastic tribute to two greats of the big screen, genuine friends and the ending had me sobbing.. Thanks for the belly laughs and giggles Messrs Laurel & Hardy.. Gone but not forgotten..
This is a really a fine film. And as a Laurel and Hardy fan from very, very early years I can say that I know the whole production of this movie was done with a lot of reverence and love of their subjects. They're paying their respects and it shows.
What still comes through, after all the years, is also the reason their work endures. They truly liked each other. That informs everything they did. Focusing on their shadows was especially poignant, because they exist now only as shadows.
Whereas I was with a relative far gone with Parkinson's disease snd other problems who had not spoken, or barely so, for years. Put on an L&H (the originals), and he soon began to laugh and guffaw. I was even afraid it might be too much. But laughter is the human thing, a gift, and my relative was laughing at just the places Stan and Ollie wanted him to, clearly following along. I had loved (note the word) the Boys all my life - NEVER "grew out" of them (TBTG), but it was then that I realised there was MORE here. Various "chance" things had to happen to bring the British guy and the American together, and they did not always get on. But they believed in what they could do, and created something true and eternal out of their innocence and gentlemanliness, which was their impenetrable spiritual armour. We have rosy spectacles about the past, but a bit of research will show readily enough how evil the crime and corruption and excess of LA in the late 20s and 30s was. These guys rode smooth-shod over that, even though very occasionally their plots and comedy hinted at it. As characters they were regularly mistreated and misunderstood by authority figures of all kinds in their movies. But they were an antidote to evil things, and still are. The above movie of truth and tribute tells us more about why...
I had heard that Stan's health went south as well from diabetes and he wasn't able to go to Oliver's funeral because of it. He was very sad that he was unable to do that but had said later "Babe would understand".
@@kevinhoffman8112 The last two strokes were possibly, at least in part, related to a drastic crash diet Hardy went on to lose weight. I think he lost over 100 lbs in just a few months or something. That kind of change can wreck havoc on anyone's health, not just that of an aging, overweight chronic smoker.
I absolutely love a good biopic - but this one clearly stands head & shoulders above all. Steve Coogan and, in particular John C. Rielly both deserved oscars for thier portrayals of this wonderful comedy team.
Chill Wills’ yodeling was the perfect music for Stan and Ollie to dance to. Still puts an ache in my heart and moisture in my eyes. Another fine mess they have gotten me into. ❤❤❤❤❤
There will never be another comedy team like Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy again. I always watched these guys with my grandfather on Saturdays and Sunday afternoons. Fun times.
Well at least we still have The Umbilical Brothers, Aunty Donna, Superwog Smooch, The Jackass guys(minis Ryan Dunn) so that's a good thing and you me and my friend are going to become a comedy group one day in the future and we are going to be like all the world's funniest comedians
This movie is just so heartwarming and masterfully executed at the same time. It really touches me every time I watch it and tells such an amazing story.
I remember watching a compilation film of Stan and Ollie s work as a kid and at the end of the film a voice over said 'off into the distance and into memory we will never see their like again' and he is so dam right no one today comes close to these two legends
It's not only a beautiful look into what made Laurel and Hardy one of, if not, the most successful comedy duo in history, it's also a beautiful love letter to them.
A beautiful end scene, crafted to immortalize the genius of Stan and Babe. Maybe it happened exactly that way, maybe not. It doesn't matter. What is important is how much love these men had for each other, even though they spat like brothers. I've loved Stan and Babe my whole life, and am a proud member of The Sons of the Desert. They take women, too!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Watching this it is hard to believe that John C Reilly played Oliver Hardy and Dale Doback. A testament to his incredible range as an actor. Phenomenal!!
Complimenti ai due attori non potevano fare di meglio, tutto molto emozionante, mi piace pensare che da qualche parte i veri stanlio e ollio l'abbiano ballata ancora una volta guadagnandosi l'ennesimo applauso ❤❤❤❤❤❤
They where inseparable and remained friends and loyal and true to each other till the end. to Stan and Ollie Godbless You Both Amen.🌜🌛🌟🌠🌞✌👍🤞🙏.May you be in a beautiful place together 🌟🕊🕊🦋🦋🌹🌹🌷🌷🌻🌻💐💐🙏
They were real troopers..to the end. To quote a line from one of the L&H LP's"And our thanks to you..Mr.Laurel and Mr.Hardy..for giving us..many hours of Comic Diversion".
Such a poignant portrayal of a true friendship, and a life well lived. Touched my heart. These two created many classic films and the end scenes of this film (if accurate) brought it home to me how much they meant to each other. To have their films in our lives growing up in the 60s with black and white tellys was such a treat. But we never knew the lives they were living to put out these films. . . Most poignant point at the end . . . Stan wouldn't work with a replacement 'Ollie', but he still continued to write scripts for many years after Ollie retired. . . I wonder what happened to those scripts.
Oliver most likely knew that his time was short and he wanted to go out doing what he loved...making people laugh and working with Stan.
@Buggy-zu9zw, I know, but damn. The way you wrote it brought tears to my eyes.
This is by far saddest ever scene in laurel and hardys career heartbreaking 😢
This whole ending made me cry so hard. This is a beautiful movie and a perfect ending to the best comedic duo of all time
I said something similar, only you did a better job of summarizing it XD I wrote an essay XD
Hear, hear
Holy cow I can’t agree more. This fricking movie is so amazing with an even more amazing ending. Wow!!
the part ollie says ILL MISS US WHEN WERE'RE GONE got me in the feels i loved this movie so much

It actually feels like it's the real Stan & Ollie you're watching instead of actors. Woulda loved to have met them. Such a great film
RIP Stan Laurel (June 16, 1890 - February 23, 1965), aged 74
And
RIP Oliver Hardy (January 18, 1892 - August 7, 1957), aged 65
You both will be remembered as legends.
This is the only ending to a film that has almost made me cry.
They were true legends and Steve Coogan and John Reily were robbed of an Oscar for this film.
I already lost it at "It was fun while it lasted. Wasn't it Stan?"...
Me too I cried so much with tears of joy and in a way pride in them they beat the odds and finished to a brilliant reprised version of their second most popular song and I'm only 14 this is an incredible film
@@Jamesbondfan-vg9qs Agreed
“I’ll miss us when we’re gone”
“So will you” I’m not crying, you’re crying!
Epic line
Tears me up- because it reminds me of my best friend.
If you didn’t cry at this you have a heart of stone.
I always watch this with tears in my eyes, but smiling at the same time. You'd be hard pressed today to find a double act so committed to each other, RIP boys. You were and are, still loved by fans old and new.
Saw this film twice & would see it again. A tender tribute to 2 gentle funny men who dearly loved each other.
I saw it four times in the theatre and have since downloaded it and have seen it for a fifth!
& the silent, reassuring moment between the 2 wives. All 4 characters said more without saying anything at all. Exquisite eye to emotional detail. Ollie's brave endurance w/ the sweat pouring off him...Stan's hesitancy & affection...the shadows symbolizing their decline...Just brilliant.
Amazing movie and beautiful scene, I love how the director focuses on their shadows multiple times, literally looks just like them watching over the actors passing the torch.
The fact that Stan & Ollie wasn't even nomimated for Best Cinematography will forever be a crime for the ages!
Stan and Ollie is one of the greatest movies of all time
I was born in early 60's.. and black and white TV showed so much L&H, almost compulsory viewing.. Saturday mornings, afternoons etc... it was always on....
Always a different one...
I certainly count my blessings..

They both knew this was their last time. Brought a tear to my eye. So well done, both actors were amazing
I heard that when Stan retired he allowed his phone number to be listed and would actually talk to fans on the phone and have full conversations with them.
One of those callers was Dick Van Dyke, who started up a friendship with Stan.
Thank you Stan and ollie for the laughter you brought to this world and for the beautiful memories you created for generations of people...
Although not nominated they managed to include this ending scene at the Oscar Awards.
The shadow shots were ingenious! Loved watching them preform always. These actors recreations were fabulous! Thanks
This was such a nice film. Reilly and Coogan were perfect.
Thank you God for giving us these two wonderful men. Without them this world would have been the dullest place to reside in.

Fun Fact: The majority of the stages is where Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy actually performed for their live shows in 1953.
How dark the world has become without these 2 😢😢😢
This was brilliantly cast
The world will never see their like again. I'm a 62 year old ex serviceman sitting here with tears rolling down my face ...RIP LEGENDS .!!!!
What being an ex serviceman got to do with feeling emotional! 🙄🥱

Absolutely the finest tribute to the finest comedy pair that ever graced film. God rest you two lovely gentlemen.
Best friends Ever. Rest in peace laurel and hardy
Thank you so much for posting this, I bawled like a baby at this scene :-( Ollie died the year I was born 1957, but my father made sure my brother and I were indoctrinated into the world of Stan & Ollie.
I was indoctrinated by my father, he started me off on The Goodies, the Norman Wisdom then Laurel and Hardy
Rest in peace legands💔💔💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭
I love the shots of their shadows. It looks like it's actually Laurel and Hardy dancing

What still comes through, after all the years, is also the reason their work endures. They truly liked each other. That informs everything they did.
Focusing on their shadows was especially poignant, because they exist now only as shadows.
I personaly thought John C Reiley should have won Oscar for best actor.. I literaly thought I was watching Oliver Hardy... Nailed the part...
I was a caregiver for a lady who had a stroke and whenever she watched this film she had happy tears streaming down her face at the end. Me too.

@@sidpheasant7585 well said.
That scene always chokes me up .
Stan kept on writing material for Laurel & Hardy knowing that he was never going to perform it with Oliver.
I think that's brilliant
Thank god that he gave us Stan and Ollie.
Funniest guys in the history of comedy, and not one single offensive word or off-color story.
Except for the black face they did in one film but it wasn’t offensive then so..
Two of the most comedic legends in comedy history.
This is a happy scene. Heart-warming.
Bests that ever been and ever will be. Great tribute
Greatest comedians ever
For all its flaws, this film was a fitting Valentine to the boys.
If it didn't bring a tear to your eyes, you never really appreciated Laurel & Hardy.
I cried over a few scenes when i 1st saw it
It was a masterpiece! I always loved Laurel and Hardy film. Stan and Ollie was perfect!
Poor Stan.......and Ollie😥😢 Stan must have been heartbroken when he lost his partner
Maggie Okeeffe same :(
I had heard that Stan's health went south as well from diabetes and he wasn't able to go to Oliver's funeral because of it. He was very sad that he was unable to do that but had said later "Babe would understand".
Great Ending to a Lovely Movie about 2 Greats.
It's even sadder when you know this never happened. The moment Ollie had a stroke the tour ended and they both never performed again.
At least it gives them a farewell
Stroke? Not a heart attack?
Oliver had a heart attack before the Strokes. He recovered fairly well from the heart attack but not The Strokes that came later.
@@kevinhoffman8112 The last two strokes were possibly, at least in part, related to a drastic crash diet Hardy went on to lose weight. I think he lost over 100 lbs in just a few months or something.

Fantastica interpretazione di due grandi personaggi...... bravissimi ❤
I absolutely love a good biopic - but this one clearly stands head & shoulders above all. Steve Coogan and, in particular John C. Rielly both deserved oscars for thier portrayals of this wonderful comedy team.
When the wives hold hands 😢 it got me
Chill Wills’ yodeling was the perfect music for Stan and Ollie to dance to. Still puts an ache in my heart and moisture in my eyes. Another fine mess they have gotten me into.
❤❤❤❤❤
God bless you Stan and Ollie thank you for the laughter and the wonderful memories you gave us..
There will never be another comedy team like Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy again. I always watched these guys with my grandfather on Saturdays and Sunday afternoons. Fun times.
Well at least we still have The Umbilical Brothers, Aunty Donna, Superwog Smooch, The Jackass guys(minis Ryan Dunn) so that's a good thing and you me and my friend are going to become a comedy group one day in the future and we are going to be like all the world's funniest comedians
Absolutely beautiful
This movie is just so heartwarming and masterfully executed at the same time. It really touches me every time I watch it and tells such an amazing story.
Due angeli mandati sulla terra per distribuire tenerezza e sorrisi. Arrivedorci! 👏👏
Fucking hell who’s cutting the onions 😭😭😭😭😭
I remember watching a compilation film of Stan and Ollie s work as a kid and at the end of the film a voice over said 'off into the distance and into memory we will never see their like again' and he is so dam right no one today comes close to these two legends
That's 'Laurel and Hardy's Laughing 20's'. I also used to watch it as a kid.
It's not only a beautiful look into what made Laurel and Hardy one of, if not, the most successful comedy duo in history, it's also a beautiful love letter to them.
I'll miss us when we're gone...
Well, that'll just rip your soul clean out!!!
Superb movie - affectionate, funny and deeply moving. Both actors are sensational.
They look like stan and ollie more than they look like themselves 😂
Nostalgia overdose! Best biopic since Ed Wood.
I have always thought that Steve Coogan and John C Reilly look like the real Laurel and Hardy in this film
Absolutely wonderful film. And I was hoping they would recreate this dance the whole time I watched it.
The tears are from admiration.
A beautiful end scene, crafted to immortalize the genius of Stan and Babe. Maybe it happened exactly that way, maybe not. It doesn't matter. What is important is how much love these men had for each other, even though they spat like brothers. I've loved Stan and Babe my whole life, and am a proud member of The Sons of the Desert. They take women, too!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Watching this it is hard to believe that John C Reilly played Oliver Hardy and Dale Doback. A testament to his incredible range as an actor. Phenomenal!!
Stunning and moving scene.
Smile mixed with sadness.🙂🤝😟
Loved this film. Very well done!
I’m not crying, you’re crying!
It was a really perfect ending to a great tribute movie. They were always my favorite.
One of the best comedy teams ever put together... They'll be back at another time and space. 🖖😊
The most amazing movie, with incredible actors 🎉🎉
La più grande coppia di comici di tutti i tempi. Insuperabili! Steve and John almost as good as them.
Complimenti ai due attori non potevano fare di meglio, tutto molto emozionante, mi piace pensare che da qualche parte i veri stanlio e ollio l'abbiano ballata ancora una volta guadagnandosi l'ennesimo applauso ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great film. Hats off to Steve and John C.
Tears in my eyes! Pure Genius!
They where inseparable and remained friends and loyal and true to each other till the end. to Stan and Ollie Godbless You Both Amen.🌜🌛🌟🌠🌞✌👍🤞🙏.May you be in a beautiful place together 🌟🕊🕊🦋🦋🌹🌹🌷🌷🌻🌻💐💐🙏
They were real troopers..to the end. To quote a line from one of the L&H LP's"And our thanks to you..Mr.Laurel and Mr.Hardy..for giving us..many hours of Comic Diversion".
Much love for L&H from Italy.
Such a poignant portrayal of a true friendship, and a life well lived. Touched my heart. These two created many classic films and the end scenes of this film (if accurate) brought it home to me how much they meant to each other. To have their films in our lives growing up in the 60s with black and white tellys was such a treat. But we never knew the lives they were living to put out these films. . . Most poignant point at the end . . . Stan wouldn't work with a replacement 'Ollie', but he still continued to write scripts for many years after Ollie retired. . . I wonder what happened to those scripts.
The film is mostly fiction. But they really did love each other.
When I first heard that John was playing Oliver I couldn't see it...but when I heard him speak in the trailer I saw it.
Nobody has come closer to authenticate the boys than John C. Reilly and Steve Coogan.
Without these 2 we wouldn't have Abbott and Costello or even Cheech and Chong if you really think about it
