Volume1: A Chump At Oxford / Related Shorts Contains: A Chump At Oxford (b/w) A Chump At Oxford (colourised) From Soup to Nuts Another Fine Mess (b/w) Another Fine Mess (colourised) One of Laurel & Hardy's best-loved feature films 'A Chump At Oxford' sees them travelling to England to obtain an education only for Stan to be revealed as a long-lost British aristocrat! Also included is the classic silent comedy From 'Soup To Nuts' which the team remade as a section of 'A Chump At Oxford' - only with Stan switching his character to that of Agnes the maid! Also in this... compilation is an earlier glimpse of Agnes in one of their greatest talkie shorts 'Another Fine Mess'. Volume 3: Way Out West / Shorts Contains: Way Out West (b/w) Way Out West (colourised) One Good Turn (b/w) One Good Turn (colourised) Thicker Than Water (b/w) Thicker Than Water (colourised) Regarded as the most popular of Laurel & Hardy's feature-length films not least for the Trail of the Lonesome Pine song 'Way Out West' sees Stan and Ollie visiting the town of Brushwood Gulch to deliver the deed of a gold mine only to be deceived by James Finlayson playing a villainous saloon-keeper. A great favourite among Laurel & Hardy admirers Finlayson is featured elsewhere in this compilation through the classic L&H shorts 'One Good Turn' and 'Thicker Than Water'. Volume 14: Classic Shorts / A Job To Do: Contains: Busy Bodies (b/w) Busy Bodies (colourised) Double Whoopee (b/w silent with musical score) Dirty Work (b/w) Dirty Work (colourised) The Finishing Touch The Music Box (b/w) The Music Box (colourised) Hog Wild (b/w) Hog Wild (colourised) Hats Off (stills gallery) A collection of classic shorts all of which present Stan and Ollie with a task to perform. 'Busy Bodies' is the famous film where Stan and Ollie work in a sawmill. In 'Double Whoopee' they start work at a plush Broadway hotel - and close a taxi door on Jean Harlow's dress! 'Hog Wild' concerns their efforts to fit a rooftop aerial. In 'Dirty Work' they are back on the roof this time as chimney sweeps at the home of an eccentric scientist. Stan and Ollie are in the building trade for 'The Finishing Touch' while in 'The Music Box' - perhaps their most famous film - they have to deliver a piano up a huge flight of steps. 'The Music Box' was inspired by one of their earliest comedies as a team 'Hats Off'. Sadly no copy of the film is known to survive but this DVD includes a selection of stills from this long-lost classic. [show more]
