Product Description
Laurel and Hardy were hailed as '...the greatest comedy duo of all time...'. Now, over half a century since their last film, 'Utopia', they are still held in high esteem by critics and the public alike. This programme is an affectionate look back at this amazing act's career, from their early black and white silent film days, through the Hal Roach era, to their hugely successful British tours and beyond. Generously laced with hilarious clips from the cream of Laurel and Hardy films, as well as original colour film footage from U.S. government promotional films, this programme also includes rare newsreel interviews, and chronicles their amazing success all around the world.

Synopsis
A documentary looking back at the silent film duo from their first appearances before they joined up to their last film appearance in 'Utopia'. Contains clips from some of their best films and also rare interview footage.

1.0 out of 5 stars Another poor Laurel and Hardy release, 5 Mar 2004
By A Customer
This DVD features a compilation featuring Laurel and Hardy which was originally released by Simitar Video in 1990.
The actual program runs a scant 44 minutes and features clips from Laurel and Hardy films that are all from the public domain (mainly Be Big and The Flying Deuces). Picture quality can only be described as poor.
The film narration is boring and adds nothing to the Laurel and Hardy legend. This is just another example of a company using the Laurel and Hardy name to sell a poorly produced documantary.
The DVD follows a whole series of disappointing Laurel and Hardy DVD's from other producers and it seems ashame that Laurel and Hardy have not had a really decent documentary made about them like Kevin Brownlow did for Chaplin, Keaton and Lloyd.
My advice is to avoid this DVD unless you really want everything available featuring Laurel and Hardy.
The good news is that most of Laurel and Hardy's classic films are shortly to be released in a 21 disc DVD box set - this will be much more worth while and Laurel and Hardy fans should save there money for this instead.
