really the only film comedians who made a succesfull transition from silent to sound..their voices perfectly matched expectations and they became even funnier in tbe sound era...remarkable
Since I was a child, as soon as I see Laurel and Hardy, I start laughing even if they did nothing, they were genuine comedians that will never be replaced.
If you don't like Laurel and Hardy then you do not deserve to like comedy. These 2 paved way for comedy on many levels that will never ever be repeated. Real shame they are not repeated on TV anymore.
All time great comedy duo. In my present age of 72, I like to watch Stan & Olie whenever I get scope to watch their comedy films. This is called immortal. They are with for ever. Love them ❤❤
I can't imagine anyone ever giving Laurel and Hardy the thumbs down, cause they were the best they ever was, or will be! They were true friends in real life, and they were halarious and didn't need to be undignified to be so! I'm so honored to have been in a life time where I have gotten the privilege to know who they are! Two of my favorite people that ever passed through this planet!
I don't see this look to the camera by Ollie? Wtvr; 2yo comment.. They Are timeless and "wrote the manual," as you brilliantly say. (Also, it's probably such a seamless glance that I don't notice it except unconsciously.)
remember how dumb I used to be? Well I'm better now. Timeless comedy. People in a hundred years time will still be watching and laughing at Laurel and Hardy
Yes Dave they were so good,did not need to be in colour or be smutty,just one look at oldies face cracks me up,Chaplin might be clever but these two were comic geniuses,rip to them both,I and millions of others will always love you.
@@1earflapping Different premises to their comedy. Stan and Ollie had their problems too. Bud and Oliver were different straight men roles. That is the main difference.
Laurel and Hardy were like brothers offscreen as well as on. When Oliver Hardy died Stan Laurel retired from acting. He just didn't have the heart to continue without Oliver.
@Agent Fungus Maybe you'd enjoy the biographies written about them by John McCabe, (if you haven't read them already). The easiest one to get hold of is called, "Mr Laurel and Mr Hardy". He wrote others, and knew the "boys" personally. McCabe really loved them and his books are very affectionately written. PS....Love the name "Agent Fungus"... That's brightened my day up already 😂
I live in a village called Gainford in County Durham & Stan Laurel lived here for a while & they had a small theatre & Stan used to perform there before he headed off to America & they call it laurel house I’ve told my 3 kids about it but I don’t think they get it if you know what i mean & by the way they still do school pantos their imagine following them footsteps 😀
These have really stood the test of time. Imagine, they were made almost 100 years ago in a time that was quite different than what we are used to today. yet, young people today can still relate to and enjoy these skits just as much as people living back then.
It's not just the comedy, it's the pathos too. There are so many aspects to their comedy, but the greatest part is the relationship between them, which gives their work a different dimension. There are times when they are very funny, but times when they don't need to be because the warmth that comes across is so wonderful. It's an essential part of their appeal because they almost always played losers, forever down on their luck and there would otherwise be sadness - as there is with Chaplin - which just isn't there with L&H whatever their misfortune. They learnt their craft in the silent era, but talkies made them iconic because we saw their true character and personality.
And never will, so-long as the current madness of the WOKE idiots, who are killing off ALL comedy as we know it, are allowed to carry on down their crooked road.
You’d be surprised. Insensitivity to the differently-abled to desensitize the people to the deconstruction of reality by the capitalist war machine - and then, it just gets silly.
You have to see the movie Stan & Ollie starring Steve Coogan & John C Reilly now on DVD. Oh, you probably have. They did a superb job of portraying these 2 legends of comedy.
Comedy aside I think we see some great acting here from Hardy. That look on his face when he sees Stan with one leg tells many different stories. Sorrow, pity and joy to see his friend all at once. Good one, Ollie.
A similar scene was copied in the Dumber & Dumber film and friends of mine thought it was stupid in that film, then I showed them the L& H version. They creased up. Two of them had never seen a L& H film in full.... They have now and love them. One even bought the complete box set!!!
Utter brilliance.This is comedy at its very best.How these two made the most simple things as hilarious as they did will never be matched again.You know you are in the presence of comedy genius when you watch the same clips and know the jokes off by heart but they still make you laugh.Thank you Stan and Olly.
@Oddjob6120 I think one has to develop an understanding of silent comedy to enjoy it. I was reluctant at first but became intrigued by Chaplin and so began watching his films. I could see the genius right away. Silent films are a bizarre world of their own to the uninitiated, and seem very weird and off-putting upon first exposure. Of course, L&H were in silent films, too. You can see the genesis of their humorous pairing in them but nevertheless seem strange compared to their "talkies" and more technically advanced films. Chaplin's an acquired taste nowadays but in his time he was the most famous man(and highest-paid) on earth, and acclaimed as the funniest. I now easily can accept the magic of his "silent world", although certain aspects remain quiet weird and foreign. Nevertheless, Chaplin's startingly inventive humor, new and amazing in its day, always shines through, regardless of some of the primitive trappings. Don't get me wrong, though--I LOVE L&H!!
Absolutely love Laurel and Hardy. Was part of my Christmas school holidays, getting up early every morning, before everyone else, to watch their films.
Absolute legends. Needed laughter in a world gone to shit. Will never get old. Blinding comedy. No-one else will be watched like these two after 100 years.😄😄😄❤️
An excellent example of Ollie, being as stupid a Stan, but not only failing to accept that, but never learning from it, in endless occasions when he , brushes Stan aside, only to meet with disaster.
Their collaboration is pure genius. Loyalty, love and laughter in abundance. For me the saddest part in their history was when Stan Laurel continued to write comedy sketches even after the great Oliver Hardy had passed away. Pure love.
I am 51 yearsold and these guys are very hilarious and great comedians of old. RIP Laurel and Hardy. They are my favorite people and still are. They are great and wonderful buddies.
The moment Ollie sees Stan in the chair with one leg is so very emotional. In just a few seconds, Ollie's facial expressions speak of sadness for his friend's supposed injury, but also, the pain of war, which took so much from so many.
The Silent Era expressions through body movement, such as Ollie's shake of his shoulders when re-affirming his resolve, were retained by the stars: and indeed make their comic appearance even greater.
Oh these two. My heart leaps every time I see them. There are good comedians, great comedians, even legends worthy of the name. And then there is Laurel & Hardy. Nothing further is required.
After all these years I'm still laughing. This is so GOOD! God bless Laurel and Hardy.....their magic lives on, giving us the tremendous, tension releasing gift of belly laughs!!!!!
One of the great things about these guys is that, unlike several other comedy teams that didn't really get along all that well, Stan and Ollie were truly lifelong best friends.
Didn't know that. Seems Stan outlived Ollie by quite a few years. BTW, the "Funeral of Stan Laurel" is here on RUclips from around 1966. It's interesting to see celebrities in the earlier years as they arrive.
Laurel and hardy have always been a favorite of mine. For a long time these two have lifted me up when I was down. AMEN I hope both will rest in peace.
These two great men made amazing clean comedy without the need for foul language. Great family comedy that is still being enjoyed by adults and children to this day. If you're ever feeling down just watch a bit of Stan and Olly and you'll be happy again in no time.
I love Laurel and Hardy and I'd never seen that sequence before. I laughed out loud more than once and it takes a lot to make me laugh these days. Classic. Not so depressed any more, thank you Boys!
Classic, I'm one of 8 children, takes me back when we were kids sitting around the old TV set.. that's when the streets were full of children.. times have changed so much.. but I will never forget the good times I had with my brothers and sisters.. times were hard, but we had mother & dad to give us love...
I think this love for each other in this clip signifies true, enduring friendship through thick and thin. Everyone really deserves that. I never thought Laurel and Hardy and the love they represented to me as a child would feel so ironic in its absence in my adult life.
I think the world, thanks to all-pervasive digital technology, has forgotten to laugh. Has forgotten how to laugh. Technology today means familiarity is in our face, breeding contempt like never before. Coupled with the ridiculously tiny, tyrannical screens, icons of entertainment, say, are looked down upon. Their value, their art, is much diminished and therefore under-appreciated on the tiny screen. People no longer watch, moreover, nice things in the company of others. Technology, which at first brought entertainment to the masses, such as the comedy in the Silent Era (before radio got going), has become an end in itself, totally usurping light entertainment. We have now all this technology, yet for many people who relish the technology, much misery. What a shame! If we aim to laugh as of old, even those prone to taking offence would see in a new regime of light entertainment that has become a force again, that the humour and satire are devoid of malice. And that style of delivery of humour devoid of malice has no better exponent of it than Oliver Hardy, in my opinion.
They had such an endearing charm,...and a humour to tickle the young and the old alike,...they remain the finest and most loved comedy duo of all time.....
Stan Laurel was a Genius, he wrote the scripts, and came up with the wardrobe/clothes they wore, smartest comedian ever.
It's 2023 and these two are still priceless gems. Making people laugh.
"Why didn't you tell me you had two legs?"
"We'll I've always has them, I don't know."

Not one person alive today could get anywhere near either of these two for brilliance. Best comedians that ever lived
These two are timeless. To me the greatest comedy duo of all time. A century later and they still make people laugh.
Absolutely unique, in a class of their own and so humble in real life unlike so many today with their over blown egos and so often zero talent.
Laugh ...... How about CRY - with laughter
you said it - Ollie says he got married and stan reels off a whole list of girls - no no no says ollie - i love these guys
my Korean mother and grandmother loved them because they made them laugh without even speaking their language
They were the greatest, yes

The greatest and funniest, comedy duo ever, sadly we will never see there likes again.
If you are watching, then enjoy this Classic that will never grow old. Your inner child is laughing at the Magic that is Laurel and Hardy.
The greatest comedy duo ever, they will never be beaten. Total class.
Timeless comedy from 2 wonderful people who definitely made our world a better place ♥️
You can just watch these guys, smile, and forget everything else.

People thumbs down it only because it's not less than 30 seconds long.
The best of all time. Truly timeless, comedy for all ages.
Lovely. Never gets old. Olly when he sees Stan has only one leg is a genuinely moving moment.
Yes--this goes from the silent-era slapstick of Stan to the clear compassion of Oliver in seconds. Surprisingly touching as well as funny.

Ollie's trademark look to the camera is genius, it pulls the audience completely into the scene. These people wrote the manual.

Breaking the 4th wall almost a hundred years ago.

Well I was, but am better now!

Their true love & friendship for each other is why they were so good. Never, ever will we see anything remotely as good as these two again. Pure gold.
True. Too many people confuse L&H with Abbott & Costello, who hated each other & whose comedy is more or less based on that.
@@1earflapping Different premises to their comedy. Stan and Ollie had their problems too. Bud and Oliver were different straight men roles. That is the main difference.

The one time I think there is sadness i at the end of Helpmates where Ollie returns home to find Stan has burnt his house down.
I love how they can still make people laugh eighty odd years later. Most of their comedy hasn’t dated.
And never will, so-long as the current madness of the WOKE idiots, who are killing off ALL comedy as we know it, are allowed to carry on down their crooked road.
Most of their comedy is amazing slapstick, and most slapstick never dies, that’s why the three stooges are still popular aswell

Yes, and in that particular moment, Ollie's perceptible shake of the shoulders is probably something he developed from the Silent Era.
