| DVD

Comedy with Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. Chickens Come Home (b/w) Chickens Come Home (colourised) Politiquerias (Chickens Come Home in an extended Spanish-language edition with Laurel & Hardy speaking their own Spanish dialogue!) Come Clean (b/w) Love 'Em and Weep (b/w silent with music score) Sugar Daddies (b/w silent with music score) Early to Bed (b/w silent with music score) A collection of classic Laurel & Hardy shorts based around the theme of blackmail - actual or implied! In one of the team's best shorts 'Chickens Come Home' Ollie is a candidate for Mayor... whose campaign is endangered by the reappearance of a girl from his past. Alongside the familiar version of this film is its feature-length Spanish equivalent 'Politiquerias' with L&H speaking their own foreign dialogue plus the early silent short 'Love 'Em And Weep' on which it was based. Another early silent 'Sugar Daddies' provides a variant on the idea (plus the same climactic gag!) while in the sound short 'Come Clean' regular foil Mae Busch - the blackmailer in 'Love 'Em And Weep' and its remake - is once again demanding money from Stan and Ollie. In the classic silent 'Early To Bed' Ollie has money to spare - and this time it's Stan who learns the power of blackmail! [show more]
