HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 мар 2019
- Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly as Laurel and Hardy performing one final dance to end their show, despite Ollie's critical health condition. Taken from the 2018 motion picture 'Stan & Ollie'.
I do not own the footage in the video and will not profit from it in any way.

Stan retired from acting because he was not willing to act without his best friend. Now that's a strong example of true friendship. :' (
And kept on writing laurel and hardy acts.
Stan refused to become what people today would call a sellout.
I'm glad he refused offers
He was asked to be in the all star comedy epic It’s A Mad,Mad,Mad,Mad World but he declined because he would never act without his best friend.
Incorrect, that's a strong example of true love.
This scene is pure genius. For a moment, for just a second the movie becomes reality, the characters who inhabit the movie become Stan and Ollie, the shadows, the dance, they become one and indistinguishable from the truth. And that is something that no award can ever come close to commemorating.
You got a way with words that brought a tear to my eye
Perfectly seen... and stated!
I still can't get over the fact that this film wasn't even nominated for Best Cinematography due to scenes like this.
@GKJusticar55, Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly who played ‘Stan Laurel’ and ‘Oliver Hardy’, respectively, truly embodied them.
This is one of the last films I got to see in the theater with my dad before he passed away. Usually I didn't care much for my dad's choice in movies; but he'd introduced me to Laurel and Hardy as a kid, and I grew up loving them. So it was a real treat for both of us. It was also the only time in my entire life I could recall him tearing up at a movie. By the end we both had smiles on our faces and tears in our eyes. We both loved the movie so much that I bought myself a Blu Ray copy and him a DVD copy when it came out. It'll always be a tremendously special film for me; and I tear up even more watching this scene now than when I first saw it.
im sorry for ur loss bruh
@@AceripXF I appreciate that very much.
@@brandonwenzel2844 ur most welcome
I am sorry for the loss of your father and am sure he is watching over you. Also I remember watching clips of the movie back in 2019 when things for me were simpler.
Speechless… What an amazing story! Thank you so much for sharing.
How can I miss these two men that died when I was not even born..? That's the magic of Laurel and Hardy ❤
Exactly I love them and I have only gotten into them 3 months ago they are fantastic
You put that really well. Nicely done.
I remember reading of Stan’s passing in the 7th grade in the school library
Well said. Magical is really the only word that fits.
I miss them both immensely and Stan died 3 months before I was born in 1965 and Oliver died 8 years before I was born. They were 2 incredible performers.
This has to be one of the best endings in cinematic history. such a great tribute to the two legends and I’m not ashamed to admit it had me in tears
Agreed
I watched this movie in the cinema.
Many of the people around us were openly weeping.
A very thought provoking film.
yes it was a nice movie from start to finish. the end dance was very emotional in the cinema many people were weeping. I also had tears in my eyes, especially in the end credits with photos and images of them
Thank you for your true words. My wonderful wife just asked me: Are you crying? I was amd I still am!
I totally agree with you,I had tears running down my face at the end of this scene too
Really bummed this movie didn't get more recognition. I grew up watching Laurel and Hardy and I gotta say Coogan and Reilly's performances were amazing. It honestly felt like I was watching Laurel and Hardy again
I could not agree more. I saw the early scene outside the pub and thought 'that's Steve Coogan', but for the rest of the film all I saw was Stan and Ollie. Too fabulous performances that should have been nominated for Oscars.
jkrfan7 It is too bad!
Totally agree.
According to wiki. It managed to make twice its budget ($26M in the box office vs. $10M budget), so at the very least, it did quite well.
jkrfan7 yes it deserved Oscar nods
This ending was so good it was part of this years Oscar’s Montage and it wasn’t even nominated for anything.
I didn't know that, didn't see it, but I don't doubt that choosing it for the montage was absolutely necessary/
Don't... This movie in my eyes was better than BR! I even think Steve Coogan should have gotten the oscar for Stan! he did a great great job!
I was pretty tearful at the end 😂
Cait Macleodxx I'm glad you said that because I cried so hard I was embarrassed
eastchesterjester Don't worry, sweet rockers Abba were never nominated for a Grammy. Never nominated let alone won one! And their music is heaven to our good ears today compared with the stuff that gets this and that award these days.
Focusing on the shadows was a great touch, it turns them into icons, no longer mattering that it isn't really them on stage, the shadows ARE Laurel and Hardy.
It seemed like some kind of apotheosis to me. With the shadows and back silhouettes, their faces were no longer visible. The individual human beings ceased to exist, turning into symbols and legends.
I still have my theories on those shadows, and I think it actually reflects who Stan and Ollie are in the present day. Unlike a lot of their competition such as Chaplin, Abbott and Costello, and even the Three Stooges, Laurel and Hardy are still being forgotten about. One of the greatest acts of all time is falling behind in the shadows of the Hollywood legends, even though they had a massive influence on many comedic actors that we still see today. To think that even doing their stage performances, they were becoming less relevant and not selling houses out. I think they'll be forgotten except by those who seek them or grow up watching their work. Coogan and Reilly gave some of the best biographical performances I have ever seen in a movie, to the point that you forget you're watching Coogan and Reilly playing their heroes.
I wonder if this film should have been made in black and white. Like the recent 'The Artist".
I think really this film should have been made in the late 1960s, 70s or 80s. The tribute film should have arrived sooner after Stan's death in 1965. It just seems almost a miracle that 'Stan & Ollie' got made in 2018. To me that means there are enough older fans of theirs still clinging on to L&H as a force to be reckoned with. Who still believe in them.
L&H's shadows or silhouettes that are highlighted in the final scene could, I suppose, tell us that the declining L&H of the movie are mere shadows of what they were twenty years previously. The irony is that their familiar silhouettes are a memorial to their greatness. Or rather they are emblematic of it.
The influence L&H had on other entertainers and artists, I believe, is profound. And there is an interesting theory that Samuel Beckett had L&H in mind when he wrote Waiting For Godot. The Nobel prize-winning playwright was a known fan of L&H.
So L&H's shadow reached far and wide. Further than we think. And we search for shadows of them today. Because L&H matter more than ever. The world is rife with cynicism. And a dose of L&H is a tonic, a much needed one. But how? How can they be delivered again to a weary, frenetic audience attuned to macho, gloomy modernity.
I’m glad to see that others in the audience also recognized this very poignant cinematic device.
@@james_fisch , I beg to differ. Laurel & Hardy are some of the few people in history who are still instantly recognizable by their silhouettes alone, along with such luminaries as Chaplin’s Little Tramp and Abraham Lincoln.
how the heck did this film get zero recognition at the Oscars? Everything about it was perfect.
It's not about performance anymore. It's about politics and "diversity"
Oscars are given to a select few heavy hitter directors’ films
Most people don't take the Oscar's seriously anymore
@@TheAscensionist11 agreed, people probably like making movies about negative stuff now such as diversity Because it devides people completely, shame really
I have just started to realise that if you make something truly ambitious and maybe personal like “Belfast” or “Roma” or just something amazingly well done like this movie and actually show ambition etc
Well then truth be told that movie is TOO good for the oscars
Because regardless we all know crap like “12 years a slave” and “green book” is gonna win regardless because it makes certain people feel better about themselves (aka people who feel guilty due to historical events that they weren’t alive to see nor do anything about and yet they feel guilty somehow and that guilt seems to overshadow the fact that the movie has nothing to say or offer)
To me it’s starting to become more important to me that a movie don’t get taken seriously by the oscars as the ones I end up loving had no mention at the Oscar or such
Like I just notice the most recent movie to win best picture like 12 years a slave and green book back in the day I had never heard of it before nor do I have any intention to watch it as the two previous ones left me with an empty feeling afterwards
I look it up and I wonder what made it stand out? Well it turned out it was about deaf people and the cast are supposedly actually deaf in real life and that’s what made it stand out I suppose as the rest of it sounds rather uninteresting
But another thing I noticed is that movies like “hillbilly elegy” that I honestly enjoyed more than most crap from Hollywood these days are often the movies that gets blamed for being “Oscar bait” or what not
And yet the obvious Oscar bait like green book is praised and criticised far and wide and yet it’s forgotten about again and the controversy is never brought up again
However hillbilly elegy will always be a primary example of modern Hollywood’s “Oscar bait” for years to come
Here’s the thing though:
One main criticism of that movie was that it didn’t follow the non-fiction book enough and showed an unreal and wrong version of the events and the society it portrayed supposedly
Ron Howard the director also directed the movie “a Beautiful mind” back in the early 2000s which today is more or less already a modern classic However that one was actually mainly fiction despite being based on a real persons life
Like I read that John Nash didn’t experience the many hallucinations in real life and another thing is that in one scene he claims he ain’t taking medicin but is recovering well
And it turns out in real life he DID take medicine but they wanted people to know that recovery was also possible without medicine
Other than that the marriage to his wife was a lot less beautiful in real life and much darker from what I know
So why was that one never criticised for inaccuracies and wrong portrayal etc?
Because it’s a good movie with a good story and honestly what more do you need? Movies aren’t supposed to be 100% gritty all the time
I don’t care how dark and serious Hollywood can be as long as it means that occasionally stuff comes along that takes my mind off the horrors in the world
I mean sure I know slavery is bad and yes I know the Russian invasion of Ukraine is killing innocents daily
And here’s the thing about all that:
I know it’s bad and it’s happening but rubbing it in my face constantly doesn’t make me care more or want to worry about something that I can do jack shit about
And when I left the theatre after watching “Stan and Ollie” I was amazed by how moved I was and how I would never have seen it if my mother didn’t have free tickets and picked me to go along because she knows I loved Laurel and hardy as a kid
But I laughed during the movie … Like genuinely laughed not like “haha” laughed like in a marvel flick but I actually laughed and felt sadness like a well made movie is supposed to do
And when I walked out I didn’t talk about anything but how amazing it all was and I didn’t stop for months to talk about it and recommending it
And then the day it came out on dvd my mother actually bought it for me because I loved it so much
And ever since I started to ask myself “what happened??”
Like what happened to movies like Stan and Ollie or even a beautiful mind that actually stayed with me after I left the theatre and I actually felt like watching again?
They were killed by the oscars plain and simple
And what is the oscars? A phony trophy that simply says the majority of idiots that feels guilty about some historical bullshit likes your movie
But fifty shades of grey was a bestseller for a while and now it’s the butt of jokes and something that every serious reader despises
That simply says to me that an Oscar or a best selling book don’t mean somethings automatically good it just means the majority likes it nothing else but it don’t mean that I alone will like it
Ever heard the song “video killed the radio star”?
Well the oscars killed the movie star
Plain and simple
And if you wanna watch something good then don’t watch anything with 2-3 oscars like 12 years a slave and green book
If you wanna judge a movie by it’s amount of oscars then look at the ones with 4+ as in my experience it means it’s not pity oscars because those movies were good enough to win in multiple departments like costume design or sound design etc
In other words they won because the people behind it (and not just the director or the writers) actually cares about this and that everyone seemed to actually do their best because this wasn’t some white guilt trip for once
And last note: Don’t judge a movie by its rotten tomatoes score by critics
Look at the audience instead
If you still have doubts just look at the comment section on RUclips
And yeah that sounds silly but you know what? I have found more modern favourites I would never have found otherwise because people like that can actually tell it straight sometimes if you need to know about a certain movie and if it’s your cup of tea or not
Shooting them from the back like that and using the shadows was very well done. You forget they are Coogan and Reilly at times and that is how you do a successful tribute.
Very true!
Yes! The shadows gave and shots from behind gave me goosebumps!
I thought John C Reilly NAILED it!!!!!
I think those shots perfectly implied their end: They cast a very long shadow, and are about to got into the light.
Absolutely right than Coogan and Reilly nailed an extremely challenging pair of roles, and are massive contributors to making the film what it is. In lesser hands, the whole thing could have been an embarrassing flop.
Everything about this last clip was so perfectly crafted. The dance, the new arrangement of the classic song, the shadows of them cast on the stage and the awesome and perfectly used slow motion was spectacular. I could watch this again and again.
I nearly cried at thus bit it was beautiful
Ollie knew in his heart I believe , this was their Swansong.
Some people laugh when you mention great comedians from yesteryear but they were the best. RIP STAN & OLLIE.
me too! thats why i bought this on YT
This has quickly become one of my favorite movie endings of all time. Just perfect and surprisingly emotional. It elevates the entire film.
I loved how Stan said “are you sure’?
He cared more about Ollie than the dance. ❤❤❤❤. These two were underrated in their time. Their devotion to each other as friends should be an example for all of the millennials out there. You don’t crush friends and family to get ahead.
How I remember the tears that flowed down my cheeks while watching this in the cinema. Such a well deserving tribute to such a great double act.
me too, Catherine
Catherine Wood I cried so hard I made a scene
Me too. At the time i thought i can never watch it again but its coming out on dvd on the 3rd of june and i cant wait to watch it in my own home and 6 speakers. The saddest happiest film. Much like love and mercy the brian wilson film. Best regards to all.
Me too 💓😭
And me Catherine, it reminded me of watching their classic shorts with my father who sadly passed away 30yrs ago.
Truly one of the best endings I’ve ever seen.
This scene made me tear up. Their friendship was so deep. I'm glad they finally made a movie ...a great movie about Stan and Ollie.
What a wonderful film. This scene always bring tears to my eyes.
Great performances by the entire cast. And the best film of 2018.
Rest In Paradise Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy.
it was good and very sweet, but it was nowhere near the best film of the year.
GovernorOftheDeathStar Totally agree!
box office is 22 millions $...i hope much better, but this is not important...the important is that the myth of Stan & Ollie is immortal!!!
2019
In 2018 it was only pre-download
The last five or six minutes of this film is possibly the greatest I have ever seen.
what?
darren motise not a native English speaker no?
What prats gave this thumbs down!!!??
the start and the end made me pretty emotional
The opening scene which was filmed continuously with a SteadyCam™ and unedited is also an incredible accomplishment.
2:53 Those last 2 lines crushed me when I first watched the film.
Bravo to John C. Reilly and Steve Coogan, excellent performances.
Stan prepared for their reunion on the other side
Incase I had certain doubts about John C Riley in this film when I liked him in Gangs of New York, before.
This scene shows the perfection of acting through the eyes. The look between not just stand and Ollie but the wives aswell is brilliance.
I almost moved to tears when I first saw this film. It reminds me of a time that unfortunately won't come back
No one could dance like Stan and Ollie.
I just wish my father was still around to see this film. It was magnificent on so many levels, and I thank my father so much for introducing me to the boys. I definitely shed quite a few tears at this finale, especially when they hold hands and take a bow. I had so much doubt about this film but it definitely blew me away. So emotional and the both Coogan and Reilly captured Stan and Ollie so perfectly.
Aye me too.
@@BradBrassman,same here.
Rest In Peace
This has to be one of the best endings/ scenes in any movie I've ever seen. It's just so joyous and triumphant in its own way. Just watching two old friends do a dance that holds so many memories in front of a packed audience made me honestly tear up
Perfectly said. I feel the same. Magical.
@Luca Cannas Thats a great way to look at it
Not only the finest comedy duo ever, but wonderful men, and true friends. God bless Stan and Ollie...
This film was done with 2 VERY important things: Love and Respect. They were entitled to that. VERY well done. Great film.
When you see the shadows....it's like the angels of Laurel & Hardy are dancing with them.
Beautiful, this film should have won every award going!
Just loved the film. The end bit was really emotional because it reminded me that both of them, Stan and Ollie were true artists who made millions laugh. This film is a fitting tribute to them both.
I also was touched at how they held hands in this scene for the entire last 20 secs, even when the dance was over. Not just for the bow, but for their friendship. I really like how this movie was made not in the formulaic mold of typical biopics these days. It focused on a critical time in their relationship and used flashbacks and re-imagined old classic scenes (like The Music Box and the big heavy trunk) to tell the story.
This was a huge undertaking for the actors. Convincing, uncanny portrayals of entertainers from a bygone era. And they captured their very heart and soul. Beautiful movie.
I'm not ashamed to say that the films ending made me sob my eyes out. This is a film about love , friendship , and the roots of comedy. The film and the actors deserved better but to the old and new fans this film is a gift that we will always treasure. Thank you Stan and Ollie for the memories.
An amazing film, funny, emotional, charming, just wonderful, with superb performances from Coogan & Reilly, they captured Stan & Ollie perfectly, in fact all the cast were excellent, a wonderful tribute to the greatest comedy duo ever
Exactly a film which we will never see the likes again just like the duo that its based off
@@Jamesbondfan-vg9qs spot on, Laurel and Hardy they will never be bettered, nothing comes close
Karl Clemmy Glad to hear that. Thought I was the only one cried
@@woodsonclarissa6726 you will not be the only one who cried, I had tears in my eyes at such an emotional and moving film
What is it called? I know a lot of their work and about there lives, but not about this movie.
cannot wait to see this film shame Stan,s daughter never lived to see this.i cannot imagine any one else playing laural and hardy
I'm sure that Stan's daughter Lois would've loved it!
It made me cry when I watched this great movie
Me too :,)
Mina Mamdouh I made a scene crying
Superb movie - a perfect tribute to two world-class entertainers.
Brilliant movie honorhing the greatest comic Dou of all time never to be beathered
One of the best films I have ever had the privilege to see
A great scene and a great movie.It's a shame it didn't get the recognition it deserved.
Sadly, one of the most underrated and unseen films of the last decade. Like all of us who love these guys, my regret is that the they will fade into history along with us.
When he says I'll miss this when were gone I cried so much then this beautiful piece of cinematic history comes on and I died it was like watching a bit of friendship at its best
The only shadows you could never mistake that's how iconic they are, I was born decades after they both passed its amazing how different generations latch onto them.
This film never got an oscar, not even a nomination but you know what? They don't need oscars, they were too good for them. Coogan and Reilly acted for the duo, nothing else. Beautiful thing about Laurel & Hardy is that they lived to entertain, no award will ever bestow upon what an incredible film this is.
I cannot express how much I love those shadow shots. It just exudes legacy and the iconic nature of this pairing.
Yes, Goosebumps; and just a nodding of the head to two sublime artists, the likes of which we will never see again.
These great guys were dead when i first say them in the early 1970 they are the greatest of all time . They will seen 200 years time in the future
I'm sure Stan and Ollie would approve.
I'm 18 and I literally sat and cried my eyes out during this scene in the cinema. Absolute perfection !
It's hard not to tear up watching this scene. Laurel and Hardy will live on as long as there is someone who watches their moves.
In my house growing up my dad rewarded me for good behavior by showing me laurel and hardy movies. He wasn't capable of showing a lot of affection so laurel and hardy sort of passed as love between he and I. He grew up watching them on tv and loved them and passed that on to me. Of course seeing their movies always feels like visiting old friends and its all tied together with my love for my dad too. He died 6 years ago and when I saw this movie I was a puddle at the end realizing how much he would have loved it.
Before I watched this movie I liked John c reily and Steve coogan.
After I watched this film my appreciation and respect for both them and laurel and hardy went up massively.
This movie is cinematic gold.
Hero’s get remember but Legends never die
Even out of context from the rest of the film I’m still in bits watching this. Best scene in film I’ve seen this year. Phenomenal film and it’s a travesty it didn’t pick up more awards!
a fine tribute to the greatest comedy team of all
Thanks Stan and Oliver from Italy
Beautiful film. Wonderful scene. Captured the delight and sweet humor of the iconic pair.
I went to see Stan and Ollie this scene had me in tears.......
Finally got to see this movie yesterday, has to be one of the best biopic movies ive ever seen soo far. Steve and John look exactly like the real Laurel and Hardy
When they say stan kept writing material after the passing for his friend but wont performe with no one and just did it because he missed his old partner is fucking heart breaking
Watching this movie especially this scene brought back so many memories of watching the boys when I was younger. Never forget Stan and Ollie they are absolute comedy geniuses these are so so so so much better than comedy today
If i had my dad back for one day, watching this with him would be at the top of the list of what i would want to do. Every Saturday morning dad would make us omlettes and we would watch looney toons on cartoon network and Oliver & Hardy recorded on vhs. He died in 2017 at 72. I was 21.
I would do anything to go back in time and watch the original performance...
I liked the framing of "Stan's and Babe's" shadows while they danced, as a metaphor of what GIANT comedic-shadows these two legends cast on generations of smiles and laughter still to come! What a FINE mess indeed!
Somewhere Mr. Hardy and Mr. Laurel are smiling and clapping along.
My Mum & Dad both saw Laurel & Hardy in Manchester on this tour RIP . Truly emotional watching this . I can't stand 'champagne socialist' Coogan who comes from not far from where I live. But he played his part very well. Loved this film.
Despite the immense talent of this comedic duo, I found the movie rather sad. What they thought would be a comeback ended up being their swan song. But boy, did they go out with class
Man I got so emotional seeing this in theaters. I criiiiied.
Probably one of the top 10 greatest movies ever, and it never played in a theater near me and I don't think it was ever nominated for any Oscars. How could such a magical masterpiece of a movie play in so few theaters and recieve such little recognition for a movie that truly is perfection? It just couldn't have been done better by anyone and John and Steve either one....flip a coin... should have been a no brainer best actor Oscar winner!
Not enough swearing, screwing, or violence to catch most folks attention I would guess, but this really was in a class above all that.
This film and scene are incredible. This scene brought a huge smile to my face, well done!!😁👍
I got very emotional
Grew up as a kid watching these 2 in early 70s. Nothing in comedy history compares to this . RIP 2 lovely comedy geniuses.
These two actors did the greatest job I have ever seen giving tribute to the great actors of our past. This shows that both actors can step outside the comfortable bounds of their past acting to step perfectly into the roles of two of our greatest comedy teams in history of movies and television. Both of these two actors should have gotten the highest award for doing the greatest job that can ever be done .
These two actors were Bril!, they caught nearly every nuance and characteristic of them. Grew up watching these two on telly after Primary school in the seventies. These days there isn't much that moves a grumpy old man, but! was crying and smiling at the same time watching that scene!. They were legends!. RIP and thanks lads!. Nuff said!.
When I watched this in the theater, I was 18, and at the end of the movie me, my dad, and the three elderly people sitting in the handicapped section behind us all clapped...best movie I saw all year, even though there were only 5 of us in the audience to enjoy it! Truly a hidden gem!
....p.s... Steve and John did a remarkable job bring these legends back to life... a stunning performance..thankyou
True friendship like Stan and Ollie's causes such an emotional reaction because it is powerful and rare.
Two incredible talented legends never to be replaced and amazing loyal friends, I have watched this movie twice already and has had me crying both times. Thank you lads for the laughs and memories bless you both.
Me and my friend are massive laurel and hardy fans and when we went to see this wonderful film and they started doing this dance we were both grinning from ear to ear
My grandfather has every episode ever made and I've been watching them since I opened my eyes. I have never had a bigger smile on my face watching any other series. Thank you stan and Ollie for everything!
Non so quante volte ho visto e rivedrò questa scena...meravigliosa
I don't know how many times I've seen and I'll see this scene again ... wonderful
It angers me to see such wonderful films like this to be only selected theaters ,I wanted to see this film real bad but none of my surrounding theaters carried it ,but you can be sure Im getting on dvd as soon as it hits the store shelf
Your joking they are idiots if they didn't laugh these guys were the best
Sorry hit the wrong comment
The movie actually played pretty widely where I live.
On our community school (high school) there was a tradition where the students that were leaving had a fancy dress day on the last day ahead of graduating. Me and a mate planned to dress as Laurel and Hardy about three years in advance. We rehearsed the dance many times to do a performance. Most of the other students didn't know who Laurel and Hardy were a when they went to school that day but they sure did going home.I had my suit crammed with cushions (I was Hardy because I'm taller) so it was hard to dance. Worth it to pay homage to an iconic duo. Rest in paradise Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy
i cried.... Laurel and Hardy, the three stooges and the chaplin movies just have a emotional connection with me, i used to watch it with my great-grandfather and i always when i´m watching stuff like this i remember these days...
Man that was classy, beautiful and sad all at the same time.
I generally hate movies by Hollywood about Hollywood. This film is the rare exception. Perfect cast. Brilliant, funny and heart-wrenching ...
Someone explain to me why this wonderful movie had no Oscar nomination?
I've just turned 20 but I completely agree. An absolute crime that this masterfully well done movie did not get nominated. However, the movie will always hold a special place in the hearts of all Laurel and Hardy fans worldwide. ❤
@JaCky,SuIOx Lest It was more BEcause of the timing of its release; moreover, those who choose the nominations are mostly not millenials, if that's what you mean by the "younger generation", and the films that were nominated were not gruesome or horror films. Blind prejudice against an entire generation is not an effective or accurate answer, nor helpful.
Leandro Cavallaro Because it wasn't trash!
It always seems to be movies I don't care for get nominated for Oscars.
Because, as a film critic observed (though I cannot remember the name), the Oscars are not genuinely based on merit but are largely a popularity contest, like nominating and voting for your high school class officers.
Watch John Reilly as Oliver Hardy...his acting is super....he's acting like a man who is in poor health...which is what really happened to Oliver Hardy. You can even see sweat dripping off of Reilly's clothes as he is dancing. It's a lovely nuance that's added to the performance.
This scene has a place in my soul. It demonstrates true friendship. Never letting your best friend down. I love this tribute to Stan and Ollie. This dance almost had me in tears from how poetic its nature is. Saw it in the theater, and never once regretted it. This movie is one of my favourites.
same man
These two actors were marvelous. So glad I saw it. The "wives" and other actors were great too.
Comicità al 100% fatta col corpo, con lo sguardo, con ogni singolo muscolo del proprio fisico. 2 geni insuperati, a cui molti si sono e si ispirano ancora.

Allora non sono l'unico italiano qua😍😍😍😍😍Facciamoci sentire
@@thealetube3509 ci sono anch io !😊
This movie was 100% AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!
So much effort must have gone into it because it was just wonderful !
RIP , Stan & Ollie .
This scene made my cry like a little child when i first saw this movie in the cinema, and also the second time. Beautifull film it was with a perfect, beautifull end. A perfect hommage to the boys
Great portrayal. Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were, and still are, the GREATEST
These two are the best for ever. Have loved them since childhood in Westphalia/Germany, still do. Haven't seen the movie yet, but the BluRay will be a must buy for sure.
What a stunning film, made me cry for sure.
I remeber watching Laurel and Hardy on the 14 inch B/W portable in my mothers room every weekday @ 6pm on BBC2 religiously in the late 70s/early 80s. Glorious memories that'll never be surpassed. They were magnificent and crossed all generations
COOGAN AND RIELLY two very different actors. But As Stan and Ollie amazing.
an amazing movie and Steve Coogan was incredible in the part of Stan.
These two were The BEST double act comedic clowns to have every graced the screen and stage. The movie is Oscar worthy and should be recognised for what it is - a very well put together film about two human beings with one mission - to make people laugh and be happy.
despite being born 28 years after Oliver Norvell Hardy passed away. This film was spine-tingling for me. I felt like they were familiar to me. it was amazing. Laurel and Hardy have stood the test of time.
Rest in peace Stan and Ollie and thank you for making this world a better place for all of us ,
Utterly amazing. Honestly gets me every time tbh. I grew up watching laurel and hardy
this is a great movie. I saw this on christmas eve. I went home, there was hardly anyone on the streets, and I heard the church clocks for evening mass. I am not the sentimental one, but I had tears in my eyes.
