- 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,714
- So, you'll never
- guess who turned up yesterday.
- 2
- 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,280
- Go on.
- 3
- 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,671
- - Madelyn.
- - Madelyn showed up?
- 4
- 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,117
- Completely out of the blue.
- I haven't seen her in 15 years.
- 5
- 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,239
- And there she was,
- standing on the doorstep,
- 6
- 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,595
- all gussied up.
- 7
- 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,360
- And that's a sight
- I thought I'd never see again.
- 8
- 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:57,874
- What did she want?
- 9
- 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,791
- 20,000 bucks.
- 10
- 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,874
- 20,000 bucks?
- 11
- 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,839
- 15 years of back alimony.
- I said, "What alimony?
- 12
- 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,469
- "When we split up, I gave you
- whatever money we had,
- 13
- 00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:09,640
- "and you took the car.
- 14
- 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,117
- - We agreed, that was that."
- - Geez, not even Mae asked for that,
- 15
- 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,920
- and she wanted me to pay
- for a chauffeur.
- 16
- 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,879
- It's because our pictures
- are plastered all over town.
- 17
- 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,793
- Probably some lawyer's
- bright idea.
- 18
- 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:21,713
- Well, in any case,
- I haven't got it.
- 19
- 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,349
- Myrtle cleaned me out
- when we split.
- 20
- 00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:26,752
- You been down to Tijuana?
- 21
- 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,635
- - Why you ask?
- - We had a few days off.
- 22
- 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,029
- Well, as a matter of fact,
- 23
- 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,634
- I did take a little trip
- down there
- 24
- 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,476
- with Mysterious Montague,
- trying to win some back.
- 25
- 00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:39,394
- Not entirely successfully,
- unfortunately.
- 26
- 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,472
- Hey, when is your contract up?
- 27
- 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,160
- We should ask
- for a little more money.
- 28
- 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,400
- A little more?
- Are you kidding?
- 29
- 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,476
- Charlie, Buster, Harold,
- 30
- 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,637
- they get ten times
- what Hal pays us.
- 31
- 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,678
- Well, they own
- their own pictures.
- 32
- 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,593
- Exactly.
- That's what we're gonna do.
- 33
- 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,955
- Hey, boys. How's it going?
- 34
- 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,759
- Georgie.
- We're going shark fishing.
- 35
- 00:02:54,920 --> 00:02:57,879
- Mr. Laurel doesn't know it yet,
- but he's the bait.
- 36
- 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,875
- Now, how are we gonna do that?
- We're under contract.
- 37
- 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,440
- We can't just change the terms.
- 38
- 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,674
- Well, we stick together,
- we renegotiate with Hal,
- 39
- 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,240
- get a bigger slice of the pie.
- 40
- 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,640
- If that doesn't work, then
- we walk and set up on our own.
- 41
- 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,440
- Oh, I don't know. I mean,
- I'd love to own our pictures,
- 42
- 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,035
- but it just doesn't seem
- like the right time.
- 43
- 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,270
- I've got a lot going on.
- 44
- 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:18,635
- This overhead is killing me.
- 45
- 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,911
- - Hi, Babe.
- - Hello, girls.
- 46
- 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,594
- Hey, guys,
- you're wanted on set.
- 47
- 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,280
- Ah, Burgess, just the man.
- 48
- 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,272
- Listen, take this
- to our friend.
- 49
- 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:27,999
- Tell him I want it
- on Bold Venture,
- 50
- 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,958
- the fourth race at Santa Anita,
- on the nose.
- 51
- 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,616
- There's something in there for you.
- Would you do it right away, please?
- 52
- 00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:35,360
- - It's about to start.
- - Okay. Thank you, Mr. Hardy.
- 53
- 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:36,351
- You'll be fine, Babe.
- 54
- 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,309
- Just lay off the horses
- and don't get married again.
- 55
- 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,434
- Oh, I didn't tell you.
- 56
- 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,192
- - I proposed to Lucille.
- - Scripty Lucille?
- 57
- 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,477
- - Yes.
- - Damn.
- 58
- 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,074
- And she said yes.
- 59
- 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,197
- Ah. That's great news, Babe.
- 60
- 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,876
- She needs
- a head examining, but...
- 61
- 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:56,754
- great for you.
- 62
- 00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:58,710
- Here.
- 63
- 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,096
- I'm never getting
- married again.
- 64
- 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,839
- I'm just gonna find
- a woman I don't like
- 65
- 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,070
- and buy her a house.
- 66
- 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,640
- That's a good one.
- 67
- 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,118
- Listen, I can't afford
- to fool around with my income,
- 68
- 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,751
- so don't antagonize Hal,
- will you, please?
- 69
- 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,718
- I don't like to talk
- about business.
- 70
- 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,155
- Not when we're working.
- 71
- 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,471
- I promise I'll be
- as nice as pie,
- 72
- 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,279
- so long as he doesn't show up.
- 73
- 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,079
- They're ready for us, girls.
- 74
- 00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:24,795
- What's this? Our rodeos are
- getting a lot more interesting.
- 75
- 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,431
- You know, I don't miss England
- one little bit.
- 76
- 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,319
- - Hello, girls.
- - Hi.
- 77
- 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,596
- Hello.
- 78
- 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,280
- Oh, by the way,
- I've chartered a sailboat
- 79
- 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:36,669
- to Catalina this Saturday.
- 80
- 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,280
- - You want to come?
- - Ah...
- 81
- 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,512
- I-I gotta work on the gags
- for the bar routine.
- 82
- 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,913
- - Ah, be a lot of nice girls there.
- - Yeah?
- 83
- 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,278
- Miss Myrna Loy will be
- on board, among others.
- 84
- 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,712
- Ah, yeah, well, all right,
- maybe I'll come.
- 85
- 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,236
- What are all these Romans
- doing here?
- 86
- 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,756
- I don't know. Maybe there's
- a sale at the Forum.
- 87
- 00:04:58,280 --> 00:05:00,670
- You've got a million of 'em,
- don't you?
- 88
- 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,390
- Hey, Lucille, have
- you got my sides over there?
- 89
- 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,711
- - Right here, Mr. Horne.
- - Thank you.
- 90
- 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:07,514
- A sweet for my sweet.
- 91
- 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,114
- Oh, thank you, Babe.
- 92
- 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,357
- Listen, let's not talk
- about leaving.
- 93
- 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,716
- Let's just try
- to get ourselves a raise.
- 94
- 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:17,678
- - Hey, Jimmie.
- - Give you a raise?
- 95
- 00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:21,470
- He'd rather lower Hollywood,
- and that's a Scotsman talking.
- 96
- 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,074
- Going for a smoke.
- 97
- 00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:27,354
- That's it, Stan.
- 98
- 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,193
- We're through.
- 99
- 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:30,874
- I'm throwing
- the moral clause at you.
- 100
- 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,076
- Morning, Hal.
- 101
- 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,516
- Another fight
- at his place last night.
- 102
- 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,240
- One of the neighbors sees
- Ruthie sock him in the mouth,
- 103
- 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,760
- so they call the cops.
- 104
- 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:39,920
- She found out about Vera.
- 105
- 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,879
- Yeah, it cost me 500 bucks
- to keep it out of the papers,
- 106
- 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,793
- and that's coming out
- of your paycheck.
- 107
- 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,431
- You signed a contract not to
- prejudice Hal Roach Studios.
- 108
- 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,936
- Well, you know all about prejudice.
- How's your pal Mussolini,
- 109
- 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,576
- the one you were going to go
- into business with
- 110
- 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,354
- before he started bombing all
- those poor people in Africa?
- 111
- 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,711
- You see?
- All he wants to do is fight.
- 112
- 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,056
- - What are you looking for, Stan?
- - I'm looking for a fair price
- 113
- 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,960
- for a Laurel and Hardy picture,
- and you know it.
- 114
- 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,376
- Our pictures sell
- all around the world,
- 115
- 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:04,440
- and we haven't got a dime.
- 116
- 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,119
- That's because
- you keep getting divorced!
- 117
- 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,656
- No, it's because you're a cheapskate
- who got rich off our backs.
- 118
- 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,114
- - Oh, come on, now, Stan.
- - He is.
- 119
- 00:06:10,280 --> 00:06:12,400
- He's a cheapskate, a skinflint
- and a... and a parvenu.
- 120
- 00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:15,351
- - A parvenu?
- - He thinks, because my contract's up
- 121
- 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,456
- and yours isn't, that I won't
- be able to go anyplace else
- 122
- 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:18,976
- and I'll have to take
- what he's offering.
- 123
- 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,480
- - Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- - Mr. Roach?
- 124
- 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:21,960
- What's a parvenu?
- 125
- 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,351
- Well, it's-it's someone
- who started out with nothing,
- 126
- 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:25,874
- got rich but has no class.
- 127
- 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,680
- Look it up in the dictionary, Hal.
- There's a picture of you.
- 128
- 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,536
- Oh, you think you're
- some sort of smart-ass, huh?
- 129
- 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,119
- Well, guess what.
- I'm smarter.
- 130
- 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,916
- Has he told you yet?
- We're setting up on our own.
- 131
- 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,431
- Hal, it might be best
- 132
- 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,798
- if you could see your way
- to a small raise.
- 133
- 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,753
- You're setting up
- on your own, huh?
- 134
- 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:44,960
- Well, how about this?
- 135
- 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,600
- Babe's still
- under contract with me,
- 136
- 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,029
- and I ain't releasing him.
- 137
- 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:49,993
- You can't have Hardy
- without Laurel.
- 138
- 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,114
- Oh, well,
- that's what you think.
- 139
- 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,597
- Hal, uh, could you maybe
- continue this some other time?
- 140
- 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,275
- Unless you want to pay
- for an extra day, of course.
- 141
- 00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:59,755
- Go ahead, shoot.
- Go ahead.
- 142
- 00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:02,480
- Okay, so we're on
- a wide two-shot here, Stan,
- 143
- 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,632
- just like you wanted.
- Then I'm gonna pull back...
- 144
- 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,200
- What are you checking with him for?
- 145
- 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:07,515
- You're the director.
- 146
- 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:08,909
- Direct.
- 147
- 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,199
- Next person you'll be
- hearing from is my lawyer.
- 148
- 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,394
- Positions, everyone.
- 149
- 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,997
- Comedy Western. Who came
- up with that smart idea?
- 150
- 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,517
- Well, that went well.
- 151
- 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,956
- So, uh, who else
- is gonna be on this boat?
- 152
- 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,360
- Clark Gable, some other people.
- 153
- 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:26,675
- - No, no, no. Women.
- - Oh.
- 154
- 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,519
- Carole Lombard.
- She's friends with Myrna.
- 155
- 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,751
- Oh. Okay, I'm gonna come.
- 156
- 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,673
- - Oh, good.
- - All right, show's over.
- 157
- 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,832
- Let's, uh, roll sound.
- 158
- 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,832
- - I said roll sound.
- - Speed.
- 159
- 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,116
- Roll camera.
- 160
- 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,397
- - Ready, boys?
- - Quiet, please.
- 161
- 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,159
- "Way Out West,"
- scene 12, take one.
- 162
- 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:43,520
- Oh, what's after the curtseys?
- 163
- 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,796
- Uh, after the curtseys,
- knee bend, then turn and shake.
- 164
- 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,440
- - Got it.
- - Camera set.
- 165
- 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,478
- Right, back projection.
- 166
- 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,040
- Cue music.
- 167
- 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:52,915
- And action!
- 168
- 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:38,480
- Whew.
- 169
- 00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:42,672
- - Oliver.
- - Ah, Mr. Delfont.
- 170
- 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,719
- - Stanley.
- - Well, hello there.
- 171
- 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,056
- - Welcome to England.
- - Thank you.
- 172
- 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,760
- Welcome to Newcastle.
- Wonderful to see you.
- 173
- 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:48,880
- How was your journey?
- 174
- 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,280
- Well, you know, that train trip
- 175
- 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,536
- takes it out of you, doesn't it?
- 176
- 00:09:51,560 --> 00:09:53,160
- - Mm-hmm.
- - Good, good, good, good, good.
- 177
- 00:09:53,680 --> 00:09:55,956
- Uh, we're delighted
- you've taken the trouble
- 178
- 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:57,554
- to come and greet us,
- Mr. Delfont.
- 179
- 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:58,720
- Please, call me Bernie.
- 180
- 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,536
- I want to do everything
- I possibly can to make sure
- 181
- 00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:02,313
- that this tour gets off
- on the right foot.
- 182
- 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,496
- Yes, well, that's something
- we were hoping to discuss
- 183
- 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,000
- with you over dinner, actually.
- 184
- 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,200
- We're a little concerned
- that some of the tour dates
- 185
- 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,360
- are going to be in conflict
- with the shooting dates
- 186
- 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:11,960
- of this Robin Hood picture
- we're doing.
- 187
- 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:13,958
- I would love
- to have dinner with you.
- 188
- 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,919
- Unfortunately, due at
- the theater in ten minutes.
- 189
- 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,440
- - Ah.
- - One of my other acts.
- 190
- 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:19,880
- Norman Wisdom.
- 191
- 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,600
- Bright young talent. Blazing.
- 192
- 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,396
- And we must nurture the
- young generation, gentlemen.
- 193
- 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:27,274
- I know you both feel
- as passionately
- 194
- 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:28,550
- about that as I do.
- 195
- 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,196
- - Hmm.
- - Anyway, get yourselves settled in.
- 196
- 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,638
- Charming staff. Charming.
- 197
- 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:34,800
- We shall speak anon.
- 198
- 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:35,880
- - All righty.
- - All right.
- 199
- 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,832
- - Enjoy the show.
- - I shall.
- 200
- 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:46,678
- Stan, he does know
- we're making a movie, right,
- 201
- 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,376
- and we're doing this tour
- while we're waiting
- 202
- 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:49,520
- for things to come together?
- 203
- 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,791
- Yeah, it's all been
- spelled out, you know.
- 204
- 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,198
- All been agreed up front, 110%.
- 205
- 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:56,430
- Good.
- 206
- 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:58,320
- Where'd you get that?
- 207
- 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,590
- Uh, it's a...
- I got it in a shop.
- 208
- 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,440
- Like a beret,
- you can fold it up
- 209
- 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,559
- and stick it in your pocket
- like that.
- 210
- 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:09,720
- Well, here we are.
- 211
- 00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:14,234
- Well, we'll only
- be here one night.
- 212
- 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:16,400
- Well, three.
- 213
- 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,320
- Right.
- 214
- 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,434
- Come on, Stan.
- Let's get out of the rain.
- 215
- 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,038
- Good evening, sir.
- 216
- 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,353
- Now, can't you see
- she's standing right there?
- 217
- 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,320
- You don't need
- to ring that bell.
- 218
- 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:33,555
- Good eve...
- 219
- 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:34,720
- That wasn't me.
- 220
- 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,829
- Please pardon my friend.
- 221
- 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,837
- You just wait till
- I tell me mam it's you.
- 222
- 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,675
- We never get anybody famous
- staying here.
- 223
- 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,199
- To be honest,
- I thought you'd retired.
- 224
- 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:53,960
- - No. No.
- - No.
- 225
- 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,440
- No, we're-we're...
- 226
- 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,434
- we're getting older,
- but we're not done yet.
- 227
- 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:00,656
- Where are youse gonna
- be appearing, then?
- 228
- 00:13:00,680 --> 00:13:01,680
- The Theatre Royal?
- 229
- 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:03,880
- No, it's, uh...
- 230
- 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,832
- No, it's the Queen's Hall.
- 231
- 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,954
- Queen's Hall?
- That can't be right.
- 232
- 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,960
- All the big stars perform
- at the Theatre Royal.
- 233
- 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:12,520
- That's where you'll be playing.
- 234
- 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:13,736
- Well, I'm sure you're right.
- 235
- 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,116
- - Is it Theatre Royal?
- - No, it's just the Queen's Hall.
- 236
- 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,670
- Right, here's your keys.
- 237
- 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:19,956
- Thank you.
- 238
- 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,191
- Now, is there a bellboy?
- 239
- 00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:27,789
- No.
- 240
- 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:30,360
- All right.
- 241
- 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:31,709
- Most of you have realized
- 242
- 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,076
- it's been a wet and windy day
- in Northern England,
- 243
- 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:35,680
- as it has been
- for quite some time...
- 244
- 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,072
- Oh, uh, my room in ten minutes?
- 245
- 00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:41,353
- Your room in ten minutes?
- 246
- 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,477
- Yeah, we've gotta run
- those lines.
- 247
- 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:45,636
- Really?
- 248
- 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,957
- Sure, we're-we're almost done.
- 249
- 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,674
- All right.
- Yeah, I'll be right in.
- 250
- 00:14:09,560 --> 00:14:11,472
- <i>What's the hotel like?</i>
- 251
- 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,917
- It's... like a castle.
- 252
- 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,072
- Well, that's wonderful.
- 253
- 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,233
- Everyone is so excited
- about us touring again
- 254
- 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,392
- that we're being treated
- like kings.
- 255
- 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,717
- Well, Ida and I received
- our tickets today,
- 256
- 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,151
- so we're just as excited
- as can be.
- 257
- 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:28,834
- <i>Oh, and so am I.</i>
- 258
- 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,478
- So, how are things
- with Stanley?
- 259
- 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,158
- Well...
- 260
- 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,073
- you know Stan.
- 261
- 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,755
- Well, how has he been
- towards you?
- 262
- 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:41,754
- He... he's been good.
- 263
- 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,754
- It's... it's complicated.
- 264
- 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,230
- But we're just getting to know
- each other again.
- 265
- 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,517
- It's... it's good.
- 266
- 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,000
- It's fine.
- 267
- 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:14,440
- <i>Are you sure Oliver</i>
- 268
- 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,392
- <i>wants to do this, Stan?</i>
- 269
- 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:23,720
- I mean,
- 270
- 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,440
- Fox would love
- to have you here, but...
- 271
- 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,875
- It's what we've both
- been waiting for, Joe.
- 272
- 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,350
- I-I can't understand
- what's holding him up.
- 273
- 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,397
- He promised me he was finished
- with Hal Roach Studios.
- 274
- 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,991
- Babe, where have you been?
- 275
- 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,073
- You had me worried
- for a minute there.
- 276
- 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:51,071
- What the hell?
- 277
- 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,550
- You're here now.
- You're both here now.
- 278
- 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:57,949
- Here we are.
- 279
- 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,200
- Is this gonna be all right?
- 280
- 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,717
- It's just a movie, Babe.
- 281
- 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,637
- Mr. Hardy, when you touch
- her knee with the mallet,
- 282
- 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,920
- she'll lift her leg like
- you're checking her reflexes.
- 283
- 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:10,400
- All right. Thank you.
- 284
- 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,114
- Want to go for one, you two?
- 285
- 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,278
- Ready when you are, Ollie.
- 286
- 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:18,675
- Going to be great.
- 287
- 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,600
- Thank you, dear.
- 288
- 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,480
- You and Harry are just
- gonna be great together.
- 289
- 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,238
- - Roll sound.
- - Sound speed.
- 290
- 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:30,800
- - Okay, roll camera.
- - Camera speed.
- 291
- 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:31,637
- Mark it.
- 292
- 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,399
- "Zenobia," scene 21, take one.
- 293
- 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,791
- And... action!
- 294
- 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:38,877
- Why don't we have
- Stanley sign?
- 295
- 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,760
- Then all we have to do is have
- Oliver sign when he gets here.
- 296
- 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,633
- That's-that's a good idea,
- right, Joe?
- 297
- 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,256
- Listen, we need to make sure
- 298
- 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,557
- we're in a nicer hotel
- once the girls get here.
- 299
- 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,074
- Have you heard from Muffin?
- 300
- 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,676
- - Miffin.
- - Miffin?
- 301
- 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,270
- - Is that really his name?
- - Mm-hmm.
- 302
- 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,631
- Has he given you
- our shooting dates yet?
- 303
- 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,359
- I'm waiting on a call, Ollie.
- 304
- 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,910
- Hey, what do you think about
- this as a title for the movie?
- 305
- 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,272
- - Hmm?
- - "Rob 'Em Good."
- 306
- 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:26,709
- As a play on "Robin Hood."
- 307
- 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:28,400
- Right.
- 308
- 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,394
- Yeah, I like it.
- 309
- 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,320
- I-I've been working
- on this scene.
- 310
- 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,752
- Uh, uh, you and I
- 311
- 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,991
- break into the castle
- to rescue Maid Marian.
- 312
- 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,991
- Right? And we're hiding from
- the guards behind a curtain.
- 313
- 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,635
- Uh, uh, let me show you.
- 314
- 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,960
- Uh, you're the guard, and,
- uh, uh, turn your head away.
- 315
- 00:17:48,120 --> 00:17:49,190
- All right.
- 316
- 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,079
- Okay, so you grab a sword.
- 317
- 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,838
- Then you try and stab me
- through the curtain.
- 318
- 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,231
- Hold on there. I have to get a sword.
- 319
- 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,198
- - You see that I'm hiding.
- - Yes.
- 320
- 00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:00,480
- You see by my feet I'm
- hiding, so you stab at my head.
- 321
- 00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:03,112
- Well, you can't hide from me.
- 322
- 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,240
- - Now what?
- - And then you just
- 323
- 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,920
- grab the drapes
- and pull them apart and...
- 324
- 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,039
- Is that funny?
- 325
- 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,996
- <i>Why you stay in guest house?</i>
- 326
- 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:22,793
- <i>You should be in best hotel.</i>
- 327
- 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,792
- Beggars can't be choosers,
- can they?
- 328
- 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,270
- <i>Okay, then why you not
- play West End?</i>
- 329
- 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,750
- No, no, no, no.
- I don't like this Delfont.
- 330
- 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,351
- Ida, he booked the tour
- for us, and we...
- 331
- 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,196
- we didn't exactly have too many
- other offers, now, did we?
- 332
- 00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:38,750
- And, anyway, we-we have
- the movie to look forward to.
- 333
- 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,550
- <i>I guess the theater's
- a little small, but that means</i>
- 334
- 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,216
- <i>- it'll be easier to sell out.</i>
- - Mm-hm, mm-hm.
- 335
- 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,074
- How is Oliver?
- Hmm? He pulling weight?
- 336
- 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:47,680
- He's fine.
- 337
- 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,240
- Hello?
- 338
- 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:52,389
- Stanley!
- 339
- 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,240
- Hello.
- 340
- 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:55,516
- Hello? Ida?
- 341
- 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,319
- <i>- Stanley.</i>
- - Thank goodness for that.
- 342
- 00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,473
- <i>- Thought I'd lost you.</i>
- - Oy.
- 343
- 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:01,677
- Honey, I'm-I'm all out
- of change. I gotta go.
- 344
- 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:02,950
- Okay, you hang up first.
- 345
- 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:04,160
- - No, no. You.
- <i>- Okay.</i>
- 346
- 00:19:04,162 --> 00:19:05,958
- Oh three. One. Two.
- 347
- 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:07,913
- <i>- Three. I love you!</i>
- - I love you.
- 348
- 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,750
- Hello?
- 349
- 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:47,915
- Hello, Ollie.
- 350
- 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,676
- I didn't expect
- to see you here today.
- 351
- 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,715
- Well, I didn't have
- anything better to do...
- 352
- 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,038
- ...so I thought
- I'd come and see you.
- 353
- 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:58,280
- Thank you.
- 354
- 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,070
- What have you got there?
- 355
- 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,360
- I brought you some
- hard-boiled eggs and some nuts.
- 356
- 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,349
- Now, you know I can't eat
- hard-boiled eggs and nuts.
- 357
- 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,074
- If you wanted to
- bring me something,
- 358
- 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,550
- why didn't you bring me
- a box of candy?
- 359
- 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,952
- Well, you still haven't paid me
- for the last box I brought you.
- 360
- 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,633
- Hard-boiled eggs and nuts.
- 361
- 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:27,475
- Mmm!
- 362
- 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,950
- What's going on out there
- with all those empty seats?
- 363
- 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:31,749
- H-How's your knee?
- 364
- 00:21:32,360 --> 00:21:33,760
- It hurts.
- 365
- 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,674
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- thank you so very kindly.
- 366
- 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,121
- We hope you've enjoyed our
- little bit of fun here tonight.
- 367
- 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,600
- We certainly have
- enjoyed ourselves.
- 368
- 00:21:50,360 --> 00:21:51,714
- Pretty empty last night.
- 369
- 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:53,834
- Pretty empty?
- 370
- 00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:56,955
- Could have invited the entire
- audience back to our hotel,
- 371
- 00:21:57,120 --> 00:21:58,998
- and there would have been
- plenty of room.
- 372
- 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,356
- Listen, we have to make sure
- Muffin doesn't come
- 373
- 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,113
- until these houses pick up.
- 374
- 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,193
- We don't want him getting
- cold feet about the movie.
- 375
- 00:22:06,360 --> 00:22:08,440
- Well, then I won't invite him
- until we get to London.
- 376
- 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,159
- All right. You got it?
- 377
- 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,677
- - Yeah, I got it.
- - Here.
- 378
- 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:14,840
- What time's our train?
- 379
- 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:16,877
- - 8:05.
- - What time is it now?
- 380
- 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:18,595
- Hold this.
- 381
- 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,389
- Do we really need that trunk?
- 382
- 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,156
- How about I just punch you
- right on the nose?
- 383
- 00:22:55,360 --> 00:22:57,352
- I haven't done that
- for a long time.
- 384
- 00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,918
- Can I poke you in the eye?
- 385
- 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,030
- You could wring my neck.
- 386
- 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,080
- I think I'd rather
- poke you in the eye.
- 387
- 00:23:06,120 --> 00:23:08,032
- - It's simple.
- - Yeah, but if you wring my neck,
- 388
- 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,197
- I can do that thing
- with my tongue.
- 389
- 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:17,336
- You know,
- I don't know if my knees
- 390
- 00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:20,034
- - are gonna hold out for this.
- - That's all right.
- 391
- 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,920
- We'll just finish with a song
- instead of the dance.
- 392
- 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:24,120
- No, I don't mean the tour.
- 393
- 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,079
- I mean this scene in the movie
- where I fall into the river.
- 394
- 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,237
- But that's historical,
- you-you know. It's famous.
- 395
- 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,280
- Robin Hood has a fight
- on the middle of the log.
- 396
- 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:32,595
- We-we gotta do that.
- 397
- 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,753
- It's a made-up story.
- It's not historical.
- 398
- 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,995
- All right, look, all I can say
- is I'll do the best I can.
- 399
- 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,073
- Tell you what, I'll have a word
- with the producer, Miffin.
- 400
- 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,400
- I'm sure he can cut round you
- 401
- 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,915
- when we...
- when we shoot the picture.
- 402
- 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,035
- Maybe I will wring your neck.
- 403
- 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:52,275
- Mr. Miffin, please.
- 404
- 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,040
- It's Stan Laurel.
- 405
- 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:57,871
- L-A-U-R-E-L.
- 406
- 00:23:58,520 --> 00:23:59,715
- That's right.
- 407
- 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,115
- Oh, that... well, that's
- very kind of you to say.
- 408
- 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,191
- I'm afraid Mr. Hardy's, uh,
- 409
- 00:24:06,360 --> 00:24:08,238
- indisposed right now.
- 410
- 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,160
- He's working in
- a Swiss cheese factory.
- 411
- 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,789
- He got the job
- putting the holes in.
- 412
- 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,196
- S-So, uh, Mr. Miffin?
- 413
- 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,040
- Is he? All right.
- 414
- 00:24:21,120 --> 00:24:23,794
- Well, he-he sure does
- take a lot of meetings.
- 415
- 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,480
- It's just that I need
- to confirm a date
- 416
- 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,796
- for him to come and see
- our show in London.
- 417
- 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,399
- All right, no, well, I'll-I'll
- call again another time.
- 418
- 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:34,710
- Thank you.
- 419
- 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,831
- - How's Ida?
- - Oh, she's fine. You know.
- 420
- 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:44,776
- She says she's really
- looking forward
- 421
- 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,393
- to seeing you
- and Lucille again.
- 422
- 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,199
- - Very much.
- - Good.
- 423
- 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,831
- Oh, I... I got you something.
- 424
- 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:52,794
- Oh.
- 425
- 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,791
- Here, hold onto this.
- 426
- 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:00,831
- How do I look?
- 427
- 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,070
- You look swell.
- 428
- 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,072
- We're two peas in a pod.
- 429
- 00:25:05,360 --> 00:25:06,476
- <i>We just want to know</i>
- 430
- 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,751
- who's playing
- Laurel and Hardy, please.
- 431
- 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,151
- - They're playing themselves.
- - Who are?
- 432
- 00:25:11,360 --> 00:25:13,352
- Laurel and Hardy,
- here in person.
- 433
- 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,677
- The poster says,
- they're-they're here in person.
- 434
- 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,473
- But they've been retired
- for years.
- 435
- 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,394
- - They're playing themselves.
- - Good afternoon, folks.
- 436
- 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,560
- - Look, Mammy.
- - Hello.
- 437
- 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,472
- Oh, ma'am,
- i-if you're buying tickets,
- 438
- 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:24,960
- tell them
- you're friends of ours.
- 439
- 00:25:25,120 --> 00:25:26,554
- He'll charge you extra.
- 440
- 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,632
- Two seats, front row.
- 441
- 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,751
- Mmm. The eternal
- mysteries of Scottish cuisine.
- 442
- 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:10,917
- - Hmm.
- - Ever had haggis, Oliver?
- 443
- 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:12,310
- No.
- 444
- 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:13,955
- Don't.
- 445
- 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:19,280
- Now, then, gentlemen,
- can I just say, terrific show.
- 446
- 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:20,271
- Absolutely terrific.
- 447
- 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:21,456
- - Thank you. Yeah.
- - Thank you.
- 448
- 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,676
- - I couldn't be happier.
- - Well, let me tell you.
- 449
- 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,680
- We're going to be working
- in some new material.
- 450
- 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:26,956
- - Right, Stan?
- - Ooh.
- 451
- 00:26:27,120 --> 00:26:28,839
- Yeah, we have
- a double-door routine,
- 452
- 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,834
- um, set in a railway station,
- and when Babe's leg is better,
- 453
- 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,456
- we're gonna reintroduce
- the dance routine.
- 454
- 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,936
- Yes, I think
- that will all help enormously.
- 455
- 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,794
- Double-door routine...
- audiences will love that.
- 456
- 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,872
- How do you feel about
- the size of the audiences?
- 457
- 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,279
- To be honest, I've been
- a little disappointed.
- 458
- 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,556
- And I think it's because of
- 459
- 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,677
- all these small theaters
- we've been playing.
- 460
- 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,520
- Yes, and I am
- absolutely furious about that.
- 461
- 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,911
- All due respect, Bernard,
- you picked them.
- 462
- 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,400
- Now, I-I don't know
- what happened
- 463
- 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,376
- with the larger theaters
- we were talking about...
- 464
- 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,437
- Well, they said
- they were all booked up.
- 465
- 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,432
- Yeah, by Norman Wisdom.
- 466
- 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,751
- Uh, isn't he one of your acts?
- 467
- 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,600
- Boys, the last thing I want
- to do is start canceling shows.
- 468
- 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,576
- Wait, wait. Who's talking
- about canceling shows?
- 469
- 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:07,397
- Not me.
- 470
- 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,159
- Well, we've only been
- at it a week.
- 471
- 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,915
- Yeah, wh-when do you plan
- to finish this tour?
- 472
- 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,080
- Well, if we wrap things up
- before we get to London,
- 473
- 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,870
- that would give us
- another ten shows or so.
- 474
- 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,536
- And with a bit of a push, you know,
- final shows, that sort of thing,
- 475
- 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:21,677
- we should be able
- to go out with a bang.
- 476
- 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:23,514
- - In Hull.
- - No. Wait, no.
- 477
- 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,120
- - Hull?
- - We have this movie producer
- 478
- 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,356
- coming to our show
- in London in a month.
- 479
- 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,016
- - Isn't that right, Stan?
- - That's right.
- 480
- 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,350
- And Ida and Lucille,
- they're flying over.
- 481
- 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,194
- We can't finish
- the show before London.
- 482
- 00:27:34,360 --> 00:27:36,192
- - Bernard, we've been clear
- - Mm-hmm.
- 483
- 00:27:36,360 --> 00:27:38,158
- that the only reason
- we were doing this tour
- 484
- 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,710
- was so we could pull that
- Robin Hood picture together.
- 485
- 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,536
- - That's right.
- - Boys, boys, I know you're peeved,
- 486
- 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,552
- but could I just say,
- I am furious.
- 487
- 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,952
- I mean, they said,
- "Oh, people don't come
- 488
- 00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:48,634
- to the theater anymore."
- 489
- 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:49,936
- They said,
- "They just stay at home
- 490
- 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,800
- "watching their new
- television sets, or they go
- 491
- 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:53,194
- "and watch
- Laurel and Hardy reruns
- 492
- 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,096
- - at the local picture house."
- - We don't get paid
- 493
- 00:27:55,120 --> 00:27:56,936
- - for those reruns, you know?
- - That's what I said,
- 494
- 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:58,416
- and then they said,
- "Could you persuade
- 495
- 00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,920
- "Stan and Ollie
- to do some publicity
- 496
- 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,336
- in order to turn
- the tour around?"
- 497
- 00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:03,636
- And I said, "If you think
- 498
- 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,176
- "that I'm gonna ask
- Laurel and Hardy
- 499
- 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,715
- "to do some publicity stunts,
- then you, my friend,
- 500
- 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:09,678
- are sorely mistaken."
- 501
- 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,076
- Hold on. Hold on, now.
- 502
- 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,992
- We could do that,
- couldn't we, Stan?
- 503
- 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,392
- Sure, if you feel
- up to it, Babe.
- 504
- 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:21,320
- Sure.
- 505
- 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:22,696
- It would mean
- a very large amount
- 506
- 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,359
- of extra work for you both,
- 507
- 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,160
- making public appearances,
- shop openings,
- 508
- 00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:28,431
- meeting local dignitaries,
- so on and so forth.
- 509
- 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,514
- - Would there be any more money?
- - They said no.
- 510
- 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:32,830
- Uh, who is "they"?
- 511
- 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,316
- People. The worst kind.
- 512
- 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,352
- Wait, I-I thought
- you were in charge.
- 513
- 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,393
- So did I.
- 514
- 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,720
- - All right, we'll do it.
- - Terrific.
- 515
- 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,720
- Well, I've told the press
- and the newsreel boys
- 516
- 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,840
- that there'll be a welcoming
- committee in Carlisle.
- 517
- 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,951
- Lord Mayor will be there.
- He's desperate to see you.
- 518
- 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,759
- He is a huge fan.
- I'll make some calls.
- 519
- 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:57,155
- Delicious.
- 520
- 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:04,913
- <i>Nothing new about
- a couple of funnymen</i>
- 521
- 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:06,355
- <i>making personal appearances.</i>
- 522
- 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:07,670
- <i>When Laurel and Hardy do it,</i>
- 523
- 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,480
- <i>you can expect complications.</i>
- 524
- 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,238
- <i>But even at a moment like this,</i>
- 525
- 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,234
- <i>trouble just seems
- to follow them around.</i>
- 526
- 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,160
- Oh!
- 527
- 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,400
- - What's the matter?
- - My head hurts.
- 528
- 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,074
- I'll get a doctor.
- 529
- 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,311
- Oh!
- 530
- 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,837
- Never mind the doctor.
- Just get my glass of water.
- 531
- 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:27,150
- Oh!
- 532
- 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,272
- Unbelievable.
- 533
- 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,193
- It certainly is.
- 534
- 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,877
- Sorry to bother you, chaps.
- Mr. Delfont would like to speak to you.
- 535
- 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:34,880
- Uh-oh.
- 536
- 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:36,918
- Any last words?
- 537
- 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:41,394
- Evening, gentlemen.
- 538
- 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,032
- If it's, uh,
- all right with you,
- 539
- 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,157
- I'd quite like to have
- a discussion about...
- 540
- 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:47,716
- where we go from here.
- 541
- 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,960
- Let me guess.
- Back to America?
- 542
- 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:52,476
- Oblivion?
- 543
- 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,832
- That was...
- 544
- 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,035
- It was pure magic.
- 545
- 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:00,509
- It was brilliant.
- 546
- 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,001
- And ticket sales have improved
- over the last week so much,
- 547
- 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,795
- mainly due to your efforts,
- 548
- 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,760
- we've sold out
- almost everywhere.
- 549
- 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:09,716
- Uh, what about London?
- 550
- 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:11,798
- Well, not only are we
- going to London,
- 551
- 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:13,496
- but so many people
- want to come see the show
- 552
- 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,200
- that I've had to look
- for a bigger theater.
- 553
- 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:18,432
- So I've, uh... I've booked
- the Lyceum for two weeks.
- 554
- 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,199
- We're guaranteed
- to sell it out.
- 555
- 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:21,959
- That's-that's over 2,000 seats.
- 556
- 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:23,839
- - Indeed.
- - Wow.
- 557
- 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,800
- Do you know, it's moments like this
- that make me love this industry.
- 558
- 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:28,030
- Madness.
- 559
- 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:29,998
- It's beautiful madness.
- 560
- 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,993
- And it's not about the money.
- It is not about the money.
- 561
- 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:35,754
- I swear on...
- 562
- 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:37,513
- Well, I swear
- on both your lives.
- 563
- 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:39,560
- You both feeling all right?
- 564
- 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,877
- That's...
- that's pretty good, yeah.
- 565
- 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,231
- - Yeah, leave the jokes to us.
- - All right.
- 566
- 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,478
- Seriously, though,
- it's a very special evening.
- 567
- 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,277
- - Thank you, Bernie.
- - Thank you.
- 568
- 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,637
- Well, that went well.
- 569
- 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:04,718
- It certainly did.
- 570
- 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,553
- So, you're on the log
- with Robin Hood,
- 571
- 00:34:18,720 --> 00:34:20,757
- and he asks you what you want
- to see him about,
- 572
- 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:22,314
- and then you say...
- 573
- 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,711
- "We're going to give him
- a piece of my mind."
- 574
- 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,480
- "We certainly are."
- 575
- 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:28,199
- "We'd give him
- a piece of his, too,
- 576
- 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,556
- but he doesn't have any
- to spare."
- 577
- 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,675
- Yeah, that's a nice line.
- 578
- 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,831
- Have you reached
- this Muffin fella yet?
- 579
- 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,557
- I mean, I'm enjoying
- how the show's going,
- 580
- 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,912
- but it's the movie
- we're doing it for, isn't it?
- 581
- 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,120
- Well, that's right, the...
- 582
- 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,311
- you know, one thing
- leads to another.
- 583
- 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:48,154
- Well, I sure hope so.
- 584
- 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,793
- Not exactly spring chickens
- anymore, are we?
- 585
- 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,152
- London terminus,
- next and final stop.
- 586
- 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:57,720
- All change.
- 587
- 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,191
- Well, here we are.
- 588
- 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:05,396
- There it is, the Eiffel Tower.
- 589
- 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,757
- Ah, here we are.
- 590
- 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:53,355
- That's the one.
- 591
- 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,056
- - Look at that. That's wonderful.
- - Yeah.
- 592
- 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:56,833
- - It's-it's a beautiful piece, sir.
- - Hmm.
- 593
- 00:35:58,440 --> 00:35:59,640
- Mr. Laurel not with you today?
- 594
- 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:04,240
- Oh, no, he got himself a new
- job mending broken biscuits.
- 595
- 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:07,757
- I think it's wonderful
- you're still going.
- 596
- 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,599
- Well, rigor mortis
- has not set in yet.
- 597
- 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,599
- Sir, he's ready to see you now.
- 598
- 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,195
- - If you'd like to come along with me...
- - Thank you.
- 599
- 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,229
- Good morning.
- 600
- 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,111
- Uh, I'm here to see Mr. Miffin.
- 601
- 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,318
- - And your name, please?
- - Uh, Mr. Laurel.
- 602
- 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,590
- Do you have an appointment,
- Mr. Lauren?
- 603
- 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,515
- Well, no, we keep missing
- each other on the telephone,
- 604
- 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,036
- so I thought if I dropped by,
- that'd be the easiest thing.
- 605
- 00:36:41,240 --> 00:36:42,993
- 'Cause he's not here right now.
- 606
- 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,149
- Well, I can wait.
- 607
- 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,191
- I think I-I've been speaking
- to a different girl on...
- 608
- 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:54,919
- on the telephone about this.
- 609
- 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,436
- Uh, I've been speaking to her
- for quite some time.
- 610
- 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:58,795
- She's left.
- 611
- 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:02,400
- Has she?
- 612
- 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,877
- You sure you want to wait?
- He might be quite a while.
- 613
- 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,396
- Well, I'm here now, aren't I?
- 614
- 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:13,920
- Take a seat over there,
- Mr. Lauren.
- 615
- 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,399
- - Laurel.
- - I'll let his office know that you're here.
- 616
- 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,079
- There's a gentleman here
- says his name's Mr. Lauren.
- 617
- 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:33,800
- Right.
- 618
- 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,112
- You know, now that
- I see these two together,
- 619
- 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:44,714
- I-I almost prefer this one.
- 620
- 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,039
- It's our finest bracelet.
- 621
- 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,034
- My wife is coming in
- from America today.
- 622
- 00:37:50,240 --> 00:37:51,594
- It'll be a gift for her.
- 623
- 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,117
- - 350 pounds.
- - Oh.
- 624
- 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,789
- Let me just double-check
- something real quick here.
- 625
- 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:02,074
- Uh... do-do-do-do-da.
- 626
- 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,518
- Ah, yes.
- 627
- 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,551
- I wonder if you could
- hold onto this for me.
- 628
- 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,480
- I-I seem to have brought
- the wrong wallet with me.
- 629
- 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,236
- So I'll just tootle back
- to the hotel
- 630
- 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,312
- and be right back
- tout de suite.
- 631
- 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:16,520
- Of course, sir.
- 632
- 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:56,840
- <i>Hello, Raymond?</i>
- 633
- 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,111
- Well, I was wondering
- if you could speak to your man
- 634
- 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,033
- and-and...
- and place a bet for me.
- 635
- 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:02,680
- Well, I'll tell you.
- 636
- 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:07,312
- It's Hometown Boy at Kempton,
- the 2:30, five to one.
- 637
- 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:09,914
- Um...
- 638
- 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,192
- let-let's make it 60.
- 639
- 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:14,119
- 60 pounds on the nose.
- 640
- 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,951
- Hello? Can I help you?
- 641
- 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,117
- Sorry.
- I have asked you to wait.
- 642
- 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:33,834
- Please, you're not
- allowed in there!
- 643
- 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:36,000
- Miss Clarke!
- 644
- 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,600
- Mr. Lauren's in
- Mr. Miffin's office!
- 645
- 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,713
- You're here to see Mr. Miffin?
- 646
- 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,589
- Yes, uh, I'm sorry, uh...
- 647
- 00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:47,760
- uh, yes, I am.
- 648
- 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,833
- I'm his production executive,
- Cynthia Clarke.
- 649
- 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,276
- - Hello, Cynthia.
- - Oh.
- 650
- 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,237
- Mr. Miffin is still detained,
- 651
- 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,232
- but I've just spoken to him
- on the telephone,
- 652
- 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,517
- and he wanted me to explain
- the situation to you.
- 653
- 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,269
- He says he's sorry,
- but he's been unable
- 654
- 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,717
- to raise the finance needed
- to proceed with the film.
- 655
- 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,233
- Oh, I-I see.
- 656
- 00:40:13,240 --> 00:40:16,119
- He said he made it clear
- in a cable he sent to you
- 657
- 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:17,873
- before you left
- the United States
- 658
- 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,919
- that all the finance
- wasn't in place.
- 659
- 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:26,233
- Yes, well, I thought he'd
- have it all lined up by now.
- 660
- 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,993
- He wanted you to know
- that he did everything he could
- 661
- 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:31,435
- to bring the project together,
- 662
- 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,319
- but he feels sure
- you'll understand
- 663
- 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:35,676
- that the market is very
- challenging at the moment
- 664
- 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,309
- and it simply wasn't possible.
- 665
- 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:43,960
- Yes, well... thank you.
- 666
- 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,396
- Uh, thank you for your time.
- 667
- 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:19,750
- Get <i>The Sporting Times.</i>
- 668
- 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,718
- <i>The Sporting Times,</i> please.
- 669
- 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:25,394
- There you are. Thank you.
- 670
- 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,840
- Get <i>The Sporting Times.</i>
- 671
- 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,556
- - Bye-bye, now, kids.
- - Bye-bye.
- 672
- 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,676
- - Oh, what's all this here?
- - Oh.
- 673
- 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:06,320
- - All right, gents.
- - Hi, boys.
- 674
- 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,512
- - Good afternoon, Mr. Hardy.
- - Delfont's idea.
- 675
- 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,433
- He... he thought
- that the girls arriving
- 676
- 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,440
- would be a good excuse
- for some free publicity.
- 677
- 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:13,520
- Ah.
- 678
- 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,030
- Hmm. I'm really looking forward
- to seeing them.
- 679
- 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,351
- Oh, I've been
- counting the days.
- 680
- 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,639
- 46. Since we got here.
- 681
- 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:22,800
- 46 days.
- 682
- 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:24,873
- 46?
- 683
- 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:26,713
- Who counts from 46?
- 684
- 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:28,673
- I was missing her.
- 685
- 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:30,195
- Hey, I've been thinking.
- 686
- 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:31,720
- We don't need to tell the girls
- 687
- 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,520
- about everything
- we've been doing, do we?
- 688
- 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:34,936
- - Um, no.
- - I don't want to mention
- 689
- 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,917
- these personal appearances
- and the drinking.
- 690
- 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,681
- Uh, no, th-there's no sense
- in getting them all worked up.
- 691
- 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:43,510
- We'll just talk about how well
- the tour's going and the movie.
- 692
- 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,273
- Sure, and the movie.
- 693
- 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,000
- Hey, if the car pulls up here,
- 694
- 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,231
- do you think we could do
- the door routine?
- 695
- 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:53,474
- You just never stop, do you?
- 696
- 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,080
- - Ooh, here they are.
- - Here they are. Okay.
- 697
- 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,233
- There she is. Aw.
- 698
- 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:04,275
- - Hey, sweetie pie.
- - Hello.
- 699
- 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:05,271
- Hi, Stan.
- 700
- 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,376
- Hey, girls, will you both get out this side?
- I've got something I want you to do.
- 701
- 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,096
- Of course, darling.
- I give them my good side.
- 702
- 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:11,918
- Oh, no, Stanley,
- we just got here.
- 703
- 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,150
- - Come on, girls.
- - Oh...
- 704
- 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,040
- <i>Comedy duo Laurel and Hardy</i>
- 705
- 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:18,272
- <i>were joined in London
- this week by their wives.</i>
- 706
- 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:20,996
- <i>But even in a simple situation
- like this,</i>
- 707
- 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,715
- <i>trouble has a habit
- of following them around.</i>
- 708
- 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:26,592
- <i>Oliver Hardy, Bachelor of Arts,</i>
- 709
- 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:29,480
- <i>always seems to have things
- under control.</i>
- 710
- 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:34,036
- <i>But somehow, things never quite
- work out that way.</i>
- 711
- 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,756
- <i>Yes, they're reunited again,</i>
- 712
- 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,834
- <i>and now everyone can start
- making up for lost time.</i>
- 713
- 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:47,519
- Well, I hope they got all that.
- 714
- 00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,080
- It's fine.
- It'll get a laugh.
- 715
- 00:43:49,240 --> 00:43:51,232
- Oh, well, I'm awfully glad
- about that, boys,
- 716
- 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,456
- but it would have been nice
- to say hello to my husband
- 717
- 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,120
- without immediately being
- pressed into one of your skits.
- 718
- 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:57,879
- Oh, Lord.
- It was just small fun.
- 719
- 00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,633
- - Oh, is that what it was, Ida?
- - Mwah.
- 720
- 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,038
- Don't be cross, angel.
- 721
- 00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:04,040
- Who knows?
- Maybe you'll get discovered.
- 722
- 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,510
- They could say, "She ought to
- be in pictures."
- 723
- 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:08,274
- No. No, no, no, I don't...
- 724
- 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,113
- I don't think so, no.
- 725
- 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,192
- Oliver, can we visit
- the Tower of London
- 726
- 00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:15,430
- and Saint Paul's?
- 727
- 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:16,829
- - Oh, and Harrods?
- - Of course.
- 728
- 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,070
- Oh, and Buckingham Palace,
- 729
- 00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:19,879
- where that darling
- new queen lives.
- 730
- 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,794
- Of course, angel. You can visit
- anywhere you like.
- 731
- 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,276
- No, no, no, Winter Palace
- in Saint Petersburg.
- 732
- 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:26,840
- - Oh.
- - Oh, this is palace. - Mm-hmm.
- 733
- 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:28,991
- The Buckingham
- is little doghouse.
- 734
- 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:30,911
- We have been
- 735
- 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,436
- counting the days
- until you got here.
- 736
- 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,000
- - Oh.
- - All 46 of them.
- 737
- 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,231
- Did you know it was 46, Stan?
- 738
- 00:44:37,720 --> 00:44:39,916
- How's the movie coming along,
- Stanley?
- 739
- 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:42,800
- Oh, it's, uh... it's all set up
- 740
- 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:44,872
- - for when we finish the tour.
- - Oh.
- 741
- 00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,111
- There's this producer fella
- named Muffin.
- 742
- 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:48,111
- Miffin.
- 743
- 00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:51,114
- And, uh, Stan has
- rewritten his script.
- 744
- 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:52,680
- Oliver, that's enough salt.
- 745
- 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,296
- You know it's bad
- for your blood pressure.
- 746
- 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,118
- Oh, sorry, angel,
- just a force of habit.
- 747
- 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:57,800
- Anyway, this producer
- is set to come by
- 748
- 00:44:57,960 --> 00:44:59,599
- and see the show
- sometime next week.
- 749
- 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:00,870
- Isn't that right, Stan?
- 750
- 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:06,197
- Yeah, he said he'd-he'd try
- and get along. Mm.
- 751
- 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,869
- Stan has been
- taking wonderful care of me
- 752
- 00:45:09,240 --> 00:45:12,358
- and making sure that Daddy
- takes all of his tablets.
- 753
- 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,216
- Has he been taking
- the blue ones, Stanley?
- 754
- 00:45:14,240 --> 00:45:16,436
- Blue ones? I... I've been
- giving him green ones.
- 755
- 00:45:16,720 --> 00:45:19,110
- Green? Oh, my goodness.
- Oliver, what are they?
- 756
- 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:20,680
- He's kidding.
- 757
- 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,274
- Well, I'm not
- finding that funny.
- 758
- 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,116
- - I was dancer. Yes?
- - Oh.
- 759
- 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:26,800
- I dance for Preston Sturges.
- 760
- 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:28,838
- - I dance for Harold Lloyd.
- - Really, Ida?
- 761
- 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:30,336
- You've never mentioned
- this before.
- 762
- 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,829
- When my knee hurt,
- what I do, hmm?
- 763
- 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,039
- I dance some more, yes?
- 764
- 00:45:35,240 --> 00:45:38,756
- I go faster, I jump high,
- and hurt go away.
- 765
- 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:39,757
- - Oh. Mm.
- - Hmm.
- 766
- 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:40,960
- Hmm? I forget pain,
- 767
- 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,600
- because pain is only
- in your mind, Oliver.
- 768
- 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:45,553
- It's not in his mind, Ida.
- It's in his knee.
- 769
- 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:47,856
- And there's no way that you
- can do the scene in this movie
- 770
- 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:49,200
- where you fall into the river.
- 771
- 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,676
- - I've been telling her about the script.
- - Oh.
- 772
- 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,674
- - Director can use double.
- - That's what I told her.
- 773
- 00:45:54,840 --> 00:45:56,760
- - Preston Sturges use double.
- - Oh, and it's okay
- 774
- 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,440
- for Babe to sit about
- in a river all day,
- 775
- 00:45:58,520 --> 00:45:59,776
- is it, catching
- his death of cold?
- 776
- 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:01,314
- I mean, honestly,
- Stanley, come on.
- 777
- 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:02,311
- Why you say Stanley?
- 778
- 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:03,709
- - What?
- - What?
- 779
- 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,600
- Anyway, show must go on, yes?
- 780
- 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:08,679
- And don't worry
- about river jump.
- 781
- 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:09,840
- It's easy as cake.
- 782
- 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,196
- - Easy as pie.
- - Yeah, it's-it's a piece of cake.
- 783
- 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:14,274
- That's what I say.
- 784
- 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,000
- What do you see
- in a fat old man like me?
- 785
- 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,790
- Hey, you, that's my husband
- you're talking about.
- 786
- 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,354
- I love you,
- and you can't stop me.
- 787
- 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,116
- - Well, all right.
- - Mmm.
- 788
- 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,157
- How was the trip over
- with Ida?
- 789
- 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,994
- Oh, you know Ida.
- Exhausting.
- 790
- 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:44,560
- When she gets something
- in her head,
- 791
- 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:47,758
- she won't let it go
- till she's worried it to death,
- 792
- 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:49,434
- and God forbid
- anyone should raise
- 793
- 00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:51,796
- the slightest criticism
- of Stanley.
- 794
- 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,440
- She's a real piece of work.
- 795
- 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:54,795
- Yeah.
- 796
- 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,880
- Has he been pushing you
- a little too hard, Babe?
- 797
- 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:00,309
- No.
- 798
- 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,717
- I mean, it is a bit
- more difficult
- 799
- 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:08,038
- than I thought it might be,
- but...
- 800
- 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:11,757
- the show must go on.
- 801
- 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:22,230
- I think she wear pants
- in Hardy house, no?
- 802
- 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,116
- Oliver is like cat on hot roof
- with Lucille.
- 803
- 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,200
- Babe's been like that
- with all his wives.
- 804
- 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:29,634
- He runs round after them,
- 805
- 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:31,480
- jumping up and down,
- trying to please them.
- 806
- 00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:32,869
- Oh, you can learn this?
- 807
- 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,158
- She's been good for him,
- 808
- 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,198
- considering the state
- he was in.
- 809
- 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:40,513
- The state we were both in.
- 810
- 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:46,476
- But now we don't drink
- and we don't smoke,
- 811
- 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,836
- and we're very happy.
- 812
- 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:52,480
- He should say thank you to you
- for all you do for him.
- 813
- 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:56,637
- You could have long time ago
- said, "Goodbye, Oliver."
- 814
- 00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,637
- That's all in the past,
- and it's where it should stay.
- 815
- 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:03,589
- Thank you.
- 816
- 00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:05,955
- You crazy. Send it back.
- 817
- 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:07,856
- I don't wanna drink it.
- I just wanna smell it.
- 818
- 00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:09,155
- No, it's bad for diabetes.
- 819
- 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:10,470
- No.
- 820
- 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:15,519
- Now you can't drink.
- 821
- 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,671
- I don't want to lose you,
- Stanley.
- 822
- 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:35,560
- Mmm.
- 823
- 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:40,351
- And to think nobody knows
- that you're really a man.
- 824
- 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,393
- Would you like me to arrange
- you tickets for Norman Wisdom?
- 825
- 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:08,720
- Oh, I don't know who that is.
- 826
- 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:10,456
- Oh, one of the comic minds
- of our generation.
- 827
- 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:11,311
- Oh, well, that's wonderful.
- 828
- 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:12,920
- - I'll speak to Oliver.
- - Absolutely.
- 829
- 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:14,680
- - Yea high, cap. After you.
- - Thank you. Oh.
- 830
- 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,319
- - Mm-mm. No, no, no. No, no.
- - What?
- 831
- 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:17,696
- No, I don't wanna sit next to him.
- 832
- 00:49:17,720 --> 00:49:19,040
- - Hello. Hello.
- - Evening.
- 833
- 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:22,151
- Sold out. Wonderful.
- 834
- 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:24,114
- Huge box office.
- 835
- 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,431
- - Who?
- - They sold a lot of tickets, Ida.
- 836
- 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:07,472
- I wonder when the boys
- will be up.
- 837
- 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,036
- Why don't you ask someone
- to go get them, hmm?
- 838
- 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:11,634
- Well, he seems
- a little preoccupied
- 839
- 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:13,553
- with his fancy friends.
- 840
- 00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:15,434
- Come, we stand like lemon, huh?
- 841
- 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:16,875
- Oh, Ida.
- 842
- 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:19,671
- Hello.
- 843
- 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:21,593
- Ladies, I was just
- on my way over.
- 844
- 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:22,840
- Mrs. Laurel and Mrs. Hardy,
- 845
- 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:24,719
- may I introduce
- Lord and Lady Warley
- 846
- 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:26,120
- and Mr. and Mrs.
- Brockett-Smith.
- 847
- 00:52:26,240 --> 00:52:27,240
- - Hello.
- - Good evening.
- 848
- 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:28,960
- Such a wonderful reception,
- isn't it, Ida?
- 849
- 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,396
- - It's okay.
- - Did you enjoy the show?
- 850
- 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,274
- Oh, yes, very good.
- Stuff and nonsense, wasn't it?
- 851
- 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:36,879
- Well, Mr. Delfont,
- he told us that...
- 852
- 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,794
- I have many offer
- to perform on London stage,
- 853
- 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:41,952
- but Hollywood call me.
- 854
- 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:45,192
- Oh, so you're a bit of
- an actress yourself, are you?
- 855
- 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,716
- More of a dancer, really, with
- a very high pain threshold.
- 856
- 00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:51,032
- I make film with, uh,
- Preston Sturges and, um...
- 857
- 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:52,376
- - Harold Lloyd.
- - Harold Lloyd.
- 858
- 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:53,959
- No time for London stage.
- 859
- 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:55,440
- No, and I'm sure
- the London stage
- 860
- 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,432
- has been kicking itself
- all these years.
- 861
- 00:52:57,600 --> 00:52:59,512
- - Oh, yes.
- - Yes.
- 862
- 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:02,160
- We have to find our boys.
- 863
- 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:03,516
- Excuse me.
- 864
- 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,352
- Two double acts
- for the price of one.
- 865
- 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:09,496
- This line that Robin Hood has
- 866
- 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:11,751
- about stealing from the rich
- and giving to the poor,
- 867
- 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:13,877
- th-there's a gag there
- somewhere, isn't there?
- 868
- 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:16,680
- Babe, the girls are gonna be
- waiting for us downstairs.
- 869
- 00:53:16,720 --> 00:53:19,155
- Delfont wants us to meet
- these people from his charity.
- 870
- 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,440
- No, never mind about them.
- They're not going anywhere.
- 871
- 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:23,840
- We just need to work through
- this just a little bit more.
- 872
- 00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:26,520
- Hey, when is Muffin
- coming to see the show?
- 873
- 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:29,276
- He didn't say.
- 874
- 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:31,757
- He should have been here
- tonight. Went big tonight.
- 875
- 00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:33,240
- That was a crackerjack,
- wasn't it?
- 876
- 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:35,400
- It was.
- 877
- 00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,040
- All right, all right,
- how-how about this?
- 878
- 00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:41,798
- How about we tell Robin Hood,
- "You've got it all wrong.
- 879
- 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:43,713
- "You ought to steal
- from the poor
- 880
- 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:45,416
- - and give it to the rich."
- - No, that's not...
- 881
- 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:46,736
- - Like that.
- - That's not right, it's...
- 882
- 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:48,336
- - Well, what is it?
- - Well, all-all right, okay.
- 883
- 00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:49,536
- - You got something...
- - How about...
- 884
- 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:50,816
- Okay, how about this?
- Okay, I tap you
- 885
- 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,355
- on the shoulder,
- and I say, uh, uh...
- 886
- 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:55,320
- "Ollie, I got an idea.
- 887
- 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,472
- "How about
- we-we give to the poor
- 888
- 00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,109
- "by stealing from the poor?
- 889
- 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:01,714
- That way,
- we cut out the middleman."
- 890
- 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:02,996
- That's it.
- 891
- 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:04,913
- - That's it.
- - All right.
- 892
- 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,879
- Stealing from the rich
- to give to the poor.
- 893
- 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,316
- Whoever heard of
- such a ridiculous idea?
- 894
- 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:11,755
- Well, it's communism.
- 895
- 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:13,800
- Stanley, he is not
- gonna fall into that river.
- 896
- 00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:15,394
- The script says
- I fall in the river,
- 897
- 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:17,353
- - that's what I have to do.
- - No, Oliver.
- 898
- 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,552
- - It's historical, right, Stan?
- - It is, yes.
- 899
- 00:54:19,720 --> 00:54:21,336
- I can't believe we have to see
- all these people.
- 900
- 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:22,440
- I just want to take a bath.
- 901
- 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,597
- Yeah, I want you
- to take a bath.
- 902
- 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:26,077
- Ah.
- 903
- 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:27,077
- There you are.
- 904
- 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,636
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- Mr. Stan Laurel
- 905
- 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:31,553
- and Mr. Oliver Hardy.
- 906
- 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:35,910
- No.
- 907
- 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:37,440
- - Yeah?
- - No, I-I don't want any.
- 908
- 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:38,431
- - Oh.
- - Thank you, no.
- 909
- 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:40,193
- I got a great thing going here.
- 910
- 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:42,670
- The... the more I drink,
- the drunker she gets.
- 911
- 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:46,157
- - Do loosen up, angel.
- - Yes, loosen.
- 912
- 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,118
- This movie could be
- big break for boys.
- 913
- 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,317
- Oh, please. A big break?
- 914
- 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,199
- Oliver is 61 years old.
- 915
- 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,431
- - He's made 150 films, Ida.
- - Shh.
- 916
- 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:55,736
- Please tell me, how can they be
- 917
- 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,036
- a matter of weeks away from
- making this movie, Stanley,
- 918
- 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,080
- and still not have
- any shooting dates confirmed?
- 919
- 00:55:00,240 --> 00:55:02,709
- I mean, this is just such a
- ridiculous situation.
- 920
- 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:03,920
- It may be ridiculous,
- 921
- 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:05,872
- but situation's not
- Stanley's fault.
- 922
- 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:06,871
- - Honey, that's...
- - What?
- 923
- 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:08,713
- Please, w-we're here
- to have a nice time.
- 924
- 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:10,240
- Well, whose fault is it,
- then, Ida?
- 925
- 00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:12,256
- - What are you trying to insinuate?
- - Oh, come on, now.
- 926
- 00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,440
- No. No, no, no. I'd like
- to know how this nutty tour...
- 927
- 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:16,456
- which, let's face it,
- they're doing for the money...
- 928
- 00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:18,312
- has anything to do with Oliver.
- 929
- 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,233
- Because Oliver make
- elephant film.
- 930
- 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:26,520
- What?
- 931
- 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:28,914
- - Gentlemen.
- - What?
- 932
- 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:31,037
- May I present
- two huge fans of yours,
- 933
- 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:32,998
- Lord Angus
- and Lady Mary Warley.
- 934
- 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:35,672
- Ladies, I'm being
- the most terrible host.
- 935
- 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:37,718
- Shall we sample the delights
- of the buffet?
- 936
- 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,634
- My wife loves your films.
- 937
- 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:43,031
- I-I don't really
- watch them myself.
- 938
- 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:44,395
- I remember one about a piano.
- 939
- 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,438
- You two had to push it
- up some stairs.
- 940
- 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,000
- Have you seen that one?
- 941
- 00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,436
- - No.
- - Oh, it's very good.
- 942
- 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,696
- They had to push this piano
- up to the top of the stairs,
- 943
- 00:55:52,720 --> 00:55:54,040
- and it was a long way, hmm?
- 944
- 00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:55,920
- And you got it up
- to the top of the stairs,
- 945
- 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:57,839
- and the bloody thing
- came sliding
- 946
- 00:55:58,040 --> 00:55:59,856
- - all the way down to the bottom again.
- - Hmm, hmm.
- 947
- 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:02,190
- And you two had to push it
- all the way back up.
- 948
- 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,136
- - I know. I was there.
- - And would you believe,
- 949
- 00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:06,072
- it only rolled
- all the way down again.
- 950
- 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,560
- Yes, that's what happened.
- 951
- 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:12,473
- Was the piano damaged?
- 952
- 00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:14,000
- - It was a prop.
- - No, it was a...
- 953
- 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:16,032
- Would you please excuse us
- for a moment?
- 954
- 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,112
- - Oh.
- - J-Just one moment.
- 955
- 00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:21,671
- - That was painful.
- - Yeah.
- 956
- 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:25,073
- What was that Ida just said
- about the elephant film?
- 957
- 00:56:25,240 --> 00:56:27,080
- You're not still carrying that around,
- are you?
- 958
- 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:28,793
- No, it was just...
- you know, I like to
- 959
- 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:30,713
- let off steam now and again,
- but she's...
- 960
- 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,270
- she didn't know
- what she was saying.
- 961
- 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:37,077
- You think this is all my fault
- 962
- 00:56:37,240 --> 00:56:38,754
- because I went ahead
- and did a picture
- 963
- 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:40,752
- with someone else 16 years ago?
- 964
- 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:42,320
- Is that what you think?
- 965
- 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:43,960
- You weren't there anymore.
- 966
- 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,476
- - You left the studio.
- - I was fired.
- 967
- 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,879
- Because you were
- a pain in the ass, Stan.
- 968
- 00:56:50,240 --> 00:56:52,516
- You refused to
- negotiate with Hal.
- 969
- 00:56:52,720 --> 00:56:53,836
- I was still under contract,
- 970
- 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:55,798
- so I had to do
- that picture without you.
- 971
- 00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,478
- Well, that's, uh...
- that's not how I see it.
- 972
- 00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:02,557
- And how do you see it, Stan?
- 973
- 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:05,136
- Well, if we're laying
- all our cards on the table,
- 974
- 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:07,755
- the-the only reason
- we're in this situation now
- 975
- 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:11,277
- is because when I was trying
- to get a better deal from Hal,
- 976
- 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:12,669
- you were nowhere to be seen.
- 977
- 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:14,718
- I had no choice,
- and you know it.
- 978
- 00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,111
- - I was broke.
- - You had a choice.
- 979
- 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:19,875
- You chose to be down at the-the
- country club or the racetrack.
- 980
- 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:22,117
- We had a good thing going
- with Hal,
- 981
- 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:24,351
- but you had this big chip
- on your shoulder
- 982
- 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:26,512
- because you weren't
- being treated like Chaplin.
- 983
- 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:29,111
- You're damn right.
- And you didn't have the guts
- 984
- 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:30,839
- to ask for the deal
- that we deserved.
- 985
- 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,514
- I'm getting a drink.
- 986
- 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:34,874
- But, look, Ida,
- I don't want to fight.
- 987
- 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:36,679
- I just want to do
- what's best for Babe.
- 988
- 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,355
- - Oliver agreed to tour, no?
- - Well, yes, he did. He did.
- 989
- 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:40,920
- Okay, so life is not easy.
- 990
- 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:42,799
- It never ever come
- on dinner plate.
- 991
- 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:45,120
- Are you implying that Oliver
- and I aren't hard-working?
- 992
- 00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:46,476
- You live in Hollywood.
- 993
- 00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:48,360
- - So do you and Stan.
- - No, no, no, no, no.
- 994
- 00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:51,593
- I may live in Hollywood,
- but I am not Hollywood.
- 995
- 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:53,513
- Ida, you are the epitome
- of Hollywood.
- 996
- 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:56,195
- - Don't you pity me.
- - What? Oh.
- 997
- 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:58,159
- I work my entire life
- to get where I am.
- 998
- 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:00,830
- - Well, hey, I had a job.
- - Yeah, poo-poo, script lady.
- 999
- 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:02,496
- Well, how's your
- acting career these days?
- 1000
- 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:03,520
- - No.
- - Yes.
- 1001
- 00:58:03,522 --> 00:58:04,874
- If you're accusing me
- 1002
- 00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:08,118
- of trying to get along with
- people, well, then I'm guilty.
- 1003
- 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,239
- I'm an actor.
- I do like people to like me.
- 1004
- 00:58:11,400 --> 00:58:12,516
- I want people to hire me.
- 1005
- 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:14,512
- Sure, you wouldn't say "boo"
- to a goose.
- 1006
- 00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:16,160
- Everybody loves Babe.
- 1007
- 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,471
- Come and play a round
- with Babe.
- 1008
- 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,434
- While I'm sleeping on a couch
- in the editing suite.
- 1009
- 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:22,880
- Well, that's how you wanted it.
- 1010
- 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,197
- You cared about those things.
- I didn't.
- 1011
- 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:27,279
- Well, you can't have,
- or you wouldn't
- 1012
- 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:29,080
- have gone off to work
- with somebody else.
- 1013
- 00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:32,515
- I-I couldn't sleep for days
- when they told me what you did.
- 1014
- 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:34,718
- And I couldn't sleep
- when I did it.
- 1015
- 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:38,393
- But you still did it.
- 1016
- 00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:42,919
- You betrayed me,
- betrayed our friendship.
- 1017
- 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:44,994
- Friendship?
- 1018
- 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:48,233
- We're friends because Hal Roach
- put us together,
- 1019
- 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:50,073
- and the only reason
- we stayed together
- 1020
- 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:51,959
- was because
- the audience wanted it.
- 1021
- 00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:55,112
- I have real friends.
- 1022
- 00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:59,035
- And yes, we play golf,
- and we go to ball games,
- 1023
- 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,760
- and we have sauerkraut
- on our bratwurst.
- 1024
- 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:04,039
- People will remember our movies
- 1025
- 00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:06,669
- long after you've finished
- your hot dog.
- 1026
- 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,078
- You know something,
- you're just a lazy ass
- 1027
- 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:12,118
- who got lucky
- 'cause you met me.
- 1028
- 00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:13,430
- Lucky?
- 1029
- 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:15,633
- To spend my life
- with a hollow man
- 1030
- 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:17,917
- who hides
- behind his typewriter?
- 1031
- 00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:20,792
- You're not real, Stan.
- 1032
- 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:25,030
- You're hollow. You're empty.
- 1033
- 00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:31,394
- I loved us.
- 1034
- 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:38,040
- You loved Laurel and Hardy,
- but you never loved me.
- 1035
- 00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:41,954
- So what?
- 1036
- 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:12,994
- Bravo!
- 1037
- 01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:17,674
- Was that funny?
- 1038
- 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,313
- What are you gonna say to him?
- 1039
- 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:32,795
- Nothing.
- 1040
- 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:35,550
- There's nothing to say.
- 1041
- 01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:40,834
- Oliver, I would go to
- the ends of the earth for you,
- 1042
- 01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,469
- I would do anything for you,
- but I won't stand by
- 1043
- 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:47,316
- and watch this lifestyle of
- yours put you in a wooden box.
- 1044
- 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:49,875
- There, I've said it.
- 1045
- 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,391
- I'm sorry, but it's true.
- 1046
- 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:56,520
- You know what?
- 1047
- 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:01,117
- You're absolutely right.
- 1048
- 01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:05,840
- Just as soon as
- we're finished up here,
- 1049
- 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:07,593
- that's it.
- 1050
- 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:10,112
- I'm through with him.
- 1051
- 01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:12,553
- Once and for all.
- 1052
- 01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:19,360
- Oh, Babe.
- 1053
- 01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:30,472
- Shh. Oh, Babe.
- 1054
- 01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:45,240
- Good morning.
- 1055
- 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,272
- Your taxi's outside,
- Mr. Laurel.
- 1056
- 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:48,999
- Have you seen Mr. Hardy at all?
- 1057
- 01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:51,319
- He left about
- 15 minutes ago, sir.
- 1058
- 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:55,276
- Thank you.
- 1059
- 01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:08,400
- There you are.
- 1060
- 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:30,270
- Morning.
- 1061
- 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:42,311
- Welcome to Worthing, gentlemen.
- 1062
- 01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:44,312
- - Can I get you anything?
- - If you don't mind,
- 1063
- 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:46,233
- I would love
- a cup of tea, please.
- 1064
- 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:47,880
- - Of course.
- - I'll do it.
- 1065
- 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:50,480
- I'd rather
- you made my cup of tea,
- 1066
- 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:52,074
- if that's all right.
- 1067
- 01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:55,631
- - Of course.
- - Thank you.
- 1068
- 01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:57,799
- Um, how do you take it?
- 1069
- 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:00,032
- Milk, four sugars.
- 1070
- 01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:05,511
- Milk and four sugars, please.
- 1071
- 01:03:06,120 --> 01:03:07,270
- Of course.
- 1072
- 01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:17,755
- Ah.
- 1073
- 01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:22,790
- Thank you very kindly.
- 1074
- 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:25,716
- Well, I think it's amazing
- 1075
- 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:27,917
- that you two
- are still going strong,
- 1076
- 01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:30,640
- still using
- the same old material.
- 1077
- 01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:37,394
- - Thank you.
- - Thank you.
- 1078
- 01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:40,360
- Uh, I, uh, wanted
- to tell you something.
- 1079
- 01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:42,876
- So, I was talking to this fella
- about, uh... about eggs.
- 1080
- 01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:44,834
- I know you like your eggs.
- 1081
- 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:46,719
- And, uh, he said
- they get a powder
- 1082
- 01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:48,877
- to supplement
- the government ration.
- 1083
- 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:52,232
- You get a packet a month,
- same as a dozen eggs.
- 1084
- 01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:54,517
- Doesn't taste too good,
- but, uh,
- 1085
- 01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:56,758
- you can make an omelet with it.
- 1086
- 01:03:58,520 --> 01:03:59,317
- That's what he said.
- 1087
- 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:01,955
- Stan, I have nothing to say.
- 1088
- 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:06,030
- Well, I've got nothing
- to say to you, too.
- 1089
- 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:07,976
- And you can ignore
- what I just said,
- 1090
- 01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:09,136
- because I won't be
- repeating it.
- 1091
- 01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:10,833
- Right. Enough bits.
- 1092
- 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:14,273
- Ah, forget it.
- 1093
- 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:16,239
- To present the crown
- 1094
- 01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:19,797
- to the winner of
- the Bathing Beauty Contest,
- 1095
- 01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:22,839
- Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy.
- 1096
- 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:29,576
- Thank you.
- Aren't-aren't they...
- 1097
- 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:31,193
- aren't they beautiful?
- 1098
- 01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:33,910
- Ladies and gentlemen, uh,
- Mr. Hardy and myself
- 1099
- 01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:37,960
- would like to thank you
- for such a warm, warm welcome
- 1100
- 01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:40,311
- we've received here
- from everyone in-in Worthing,
- 1101
- 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:42,796
- our favorite seaside town.
- 1102
- 01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:51,998
- And, uh, really,
- I-I suppose all that remains
- 1103
- 01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:55,318
- is for me to put
- this lovely tiara crown
- 1104
- 01:04:55,800 --> 01:04:57,792
- on our beautiful winner.
- 1105
- 01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:00,680
- Will you... will you quit
- sulking and get up here?
- 1106
- 01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:01,876
- And the winner...
- 1107
- 01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:09,696
- Babe, you're not...
- Babe, Babe, what happened?
- 1108
- 01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:10,720
- You all right?
- 1109
- 01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:12,520
- What's going on?
- What's going on, buddy?
- 1110
- 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,796
- Uh, someone turned out
- the lights.
- 1111
- 01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:17,870
- Talk to me.
- 1112
- 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:20,353
- Excuse me, ma'am.
- 1113
- 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:25,157
- This is so stupid.
- 1114
- 01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:27,437
- - Okay.
- - Here, 430.
- 1115
- 01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:29,280
- Lucille?
- 1116
- 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:31,312
- I've got my key here
- somewhere.
- 1117
- 01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:32,949
- He had-had a funny turn.
- 1118
- 01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:34,520
- Oh, my goodness.
- What happened?
- 1119
- 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:36,353
- Well, we were about
- to go onstage,
- 1120
- 01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:37,880
- and he said
- he wasn't feeling well,
- 1121
- 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:39,076
- and he sort of collapsed.
- 1122
- 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,312
- Collapsed? No, I need to get
- a doctor right now.
- 1123
- 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:42,480
- No doctor.
- 1124
- 01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:44,119
- I got him here
- as fast as I could.
- 1125
- 01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,936
- You should have taken him
- to the hospital. Look at the state he's in.
- 1126
- 01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:48,030
- - I tried.
- - Yes, hello.
- 1127
- 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,112
- This is Mrs. Hardy in room 430.
- 1128
- 01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:51,714
- Now, I need a doctor to attend
- 1129
- 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:53,593
- to my husband right away,
- please.
- 1130
- 01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:55,712
- - Mr. Oliver Hardy.
- - Don't worry, I'm fine.
- 1131
- 01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:57,040
- My goodness, please hurry up.
- 1132
- 01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:58,120
- I'm so sorry, Lucille.
- 1133
- 01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:00,317
- Thank you, Stan.
- I'll take it from here.
- 1134
- 01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:01,856
- It's fine.
- Don't worry. You hang up.
- 1135
- 01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:04,031
- - Goodness, why are they taking so long?
- - Hang up.
- 1136
- 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:06,199
- Oh, my goodness, please
- hurry up.
- 1137
- 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:09,355
- Yes, I already told you...
- 1138
- 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:23,517
- Lucille
- won't let anybody near him.
- 1139
- 01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:26,511
- We can't expect him back
- anytime soon?
- 1140
- 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:32,039
- - I-I don't think so.
- - Oh, shame.
- 1141
- 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:34,192
- The advance London bookings
- are very strong.
- 1142
- 01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:35,714
- Everyone wants to see you.
- 1143
- 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:37,479
- Show's a huge success.
- 1144
- 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:40,792
- It's not Babe's fault
- that he got sick.
- 1145
- 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:43,640
- No, of course not.
- Of course not.
- 1146
- 01:06:46,720 --> 01:06:48,313
- Stanley, am I right in thinking
- 1147
- 01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:50,159
- that before you teamed up
- with Oliver,
- 1148
- 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:51,800
- you used to work
- with other partners?
- 1149
- 01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:55,915
- Well, yes,
- when I was in vaudeville,
- 1150
- 01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:57,760
- I-I worked with lots
- of different partners.
- 1151
- 01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:00,793
- Um... of course,
- Charlie Chaplin was one.
- 1152
- 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:03,270
- - Mm.
- - But th-these were very fleeting...
- 1153
- 01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:06,280
- And, of course, Oliver made his
- elephant film with a different partner.
- 1154
- 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:09,473
- Well, what's that got to do
- with anything?
- 1155
- 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:11,351
- Oh, I don't know.
- 1156
- 01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:12,670
- Random thought.
- 1157
- 01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:16,576
- There's a, um...
- there's a very popular
- 1158
- 01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:18,273
- double act here
- called Cook and Baker.
- 1159
- 01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:20,638
- Cook is basically Hardy
- to Baker's Laurel,
- 1160
- 01:07:20,800 --> 01:07:21,800
- if you see what I mean.
- 1161
- 01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:25,078
- And I was just wondering
- whether you might consider
- 1162
- 01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:26,800
- doing a couple of shows
- with Nobby Cook,
- 1163
- 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:30,673
- just to keep the seats full
- until Oliver can return.
- 1164
- 01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:32,839
- Go on without Babe?
- 1165
- 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:36,870
- Well, something
- to mull over, anyway.
- 1166
- 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:43,318
- After all, those sausages
- don't pay for themselves.
- 1167
- 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:03,360
- Hi, Stan.
- 1168
- 01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:05,194
- Please don't tire him out.
- 1169
- 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:25,760
- Hello, Ollie.
- 1170
- 01:08:27,320 --> 01:08:29,880
- I didn't expect
- to see you here today.
- 1171
- 01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:39,313
- I got you something.
- 1172
- 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:42,870
- Eggs?
- 1173
- 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:45,638
- Laid 'em myself.
- 1174
- 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:50,510
- I had to go down to the kitchen
- to see if they had any spare.
- 1175
- 01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:52,876
- Three shillings each,
- they cost me.
- 1176
- 01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:54,474
- Thank you, Stan.
- 1177
- 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:00,636
- I'll have one now, if I may.
- 1178
- 01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:01,836
- Sure.
- 1179
- 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:07,696
- You know,
- Lucille didn't have to go.
- 1180
- 01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:08,551
- She could have stayed.
- 1181
- 01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:10,359
- I mean,
- that-that argument we had
- 1182
- 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:12,751
- the other night, that was
- just... it was so silly.
- 1183
- 01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:14,792
- It was...
- it was a-about nothing.
- 1184
- 01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:16,070
- Just...
- 1185
- 01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:18,200
- just nothing.
- 1186
- 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:22,159
- Babe, I-I wanted
- to talk to you...
- 1187
- 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:23,754
- I'm retiring.
- 1188
- 01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:26,796
- What?
- 1189
- 01:09:28,000 --> 01:09:30,754
- The doctors told me
- I can't continue with the tour,
- 1190
- 01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:33,560
- and I have promised Lucille
- I won't.
- 1191
- 01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:38,637
- So I'm retiring, Stan.
- 1192
- 01:09:39,480 --> 01:09:42,120
- I've promised Lucille,
- and that's that.
- 1193
- 01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:44,796
- I'm sorry.
- 1194
- 01:09:46,480 --> 01:09:48,756
- I should never have had us
- take this tour.
- 1195
- 01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,879
- Well, <i>je ne regrette rien.</i>
- 1196
- 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,157
- And you shouldn't
- <i>regrette rien</i>, either.
- 1197
- 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:58,275
- Can't you just rest
- until you're better,
- 1198
- 01:09:58,440 --> 01:10:00,352
- and then, you know,
- we could start again?
- 1199
- 01:10:00,520 --> 01:10:02,796
- They say my heart
- won't take it.
- 1200
- 01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:06,076
- So I'm going home
- 1201
- 01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:09,480
- just as soon as we can
- arrange the crossing.
- 1202
- 01:10:20,480 --> 01:10:21,960
- You're retiring.
- 1203
- 01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:26,320
- - Oh.
- - Yes.
- 1204
- 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:30,640
- Retiring.
- 1205
- 01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:41,518
- So, what have you
- been working on?
- 1206
- 01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:44,350
- - What?
- - What new scenes for the movie
- 1207
- 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:46,000
- - have you been working on?
- - Oh.
- 1208
- 01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:48,280
- Nothing, really.
- 1209
- 01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:50,830
- I haven't seen you
- for two days,
- 1210
- 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:52,896
- and you're trying to tell me
- you haven't been working
- 1211
- 01:10:52,920 --> 01:10:54,832
- on new material in that time?
- 1212
- 01:10:56,480 --> 01:10:57,516
- Well...
- 1213
- 01:10:58,080 --> 01:10:59,719
- Come on, then, out with it.
- 1214
- 01:10:59,880 --> 01:11:02,395
- Well, I did have this idea
- for a... a romantic scene
- 1215
- 01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:04,040
- where you're pining
- for Maid Marian,
- 1216
- 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:05,680
- but she's holed up in a castle
- 1217
- 01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:07,513
- - with the Sheriff of Nottingham.
- - Right.
- 1218
- 01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:10,639
- And then we hear this
- very sad violin music,
- 1219
- 01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:13,150
- and you start to cry;
- you can't handle it.
- 1220
- 01:11:13,320 --> 01:11:16,119
- And, uh, of course, you're...
- you're bawling your eyes out,
- 1221
- 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:17,776
- the tears are bouncing
- off your cheeks,
- 1222
- 01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:19,951
- but I'm not upset at all,
- you know,
- 1223
- 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:21,320
- and I-I don't know what to do.
- 1224
- 01:11:21,440 --> 01:11:22,440
- I'm...
- 1225
- 01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:26,231
- And, uh...
- and-and then suddenly,
- 1226
- 01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:27,629
- I-I think, "Oh, I know.
- 1227
- 01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:29,354
- "I'll-I'll get
- this potted plant,
- 1228
- 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:30,840
- and I'll put it
- underneath you."
- 1229
- 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:32,400
- You know, so at least...
- 1230
- 01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:34,592
- at least there'll be something
- to catch the tears
- 1231
- 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:36,920
- and give the plant...
- plant a watering.
- 1232
- 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:40,920
- But then the plant just starts
- growing like crazy, you know.
- 1233
- 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:44,037
- I'll get the prop boys
- to rig me up the tears
- 1234
- 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:45,793
- so they're like
- little waterfalls.
- 1235
- 01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:47,136
- - That's right.
- - That'll be a riot.
- 1236
- 01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:50,119
- That'll... that's great, Stan.
- That'll go big.
- 1237
- 01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:00,551
- Would you do me a favor?
- 1238
- 01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:02,120
- Will you pull
- this blanket up on me?
- 1239
- 01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:04,556
- - Sure.
- - I just can't seem to get warm.
- 1240
- 01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:07,793
- My goodness,
- your hands are like ice.
- 1241
- 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,475
- - Yeah.
- - Here.
- 1242
- 01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:16,155
- That better?
- 1243
- 01:12:16,440 --> 01:12:17,590
- Yes.
- 1244
- 01:12:25,440 --> 01:12:27,671
- So, have you talked to Delfont?
- 1245
- 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:30,677
- I spoke to him this morning.
- 1246
- 01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:32,320
- What did he say?
- 1247
- 01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:35,434
- Well, he... he didn't know
- you were retiring, of course,
- 1248
- 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:38,911
- but he asked me,
- since you were sick,
- 1249
- 01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:41,840
- if I wouldn't mind carrying on
- the show with somebody else.
- 1250
- 01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:44,870
- Who?
- 1251
- 01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:48,434
- An English comedian
- called Nobby Cook.
- 1252
- 01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,278
- Well, that makes sense.
- 1253
- 01:12:56,440 --> 01:12:58,238
- It's for the best, Stan.
- 1254
- 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:03,080
- Maybe it is.
- 1255
- 01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,719
- Well, that's settled, then.
- 1256
- 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:13,559
- I'm retiring, and you're
- going on with a new partner.
- 1257
- 01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:17,315
- Yes.
- 1258
- 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:20,269
- That's it.
- 1259
- 01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:33,631
- The other night, uh,
- those things you said...
- 1260
- 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:36,230
- did you mean them?
- 1261
- 01:13:38,520 --> 01:13:39,636
- No.
- 1262
- 01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:44,080
- Did you?
- 1263
- 01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:45,590
- No.
- 1264
- 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:49,310
- Good.
- 1265
- 01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:59,912
- Stanley, may I introduce to you
- Mr. Nobby Cook,
- 1266
- 01:14:00,400 --> 01:14:02,517
- one of our finest
- music hall comedians.
- 1267
- 01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:04,034
- Very pleased to meet you,
- Nobby.
- 1268
- 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:06,280
- I've heard a lot
- of great things about you.
- 1269
- 01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:09,040
- Mr. Laurel,
- I'm a big fan of yours.
- 1270
- 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:11,216
- - I've seen all your films.
- - Oh, we'll have none of that.
- 1271
- 01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:12,469
- You're Nobby. I'm Stanley.
- 1272
- 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:14,256
- I'm looking forward
- to rolling my sleeves up
- 1273
- 01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:16,875
- - and getting to work with you.
- - Oh, thank you very much.
- 1274
- 01:14:17,040 --> 01:14:18,474
- It's very nice of you
- to say so.
- 1275
- 01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:21,016
- You two are gonna be
- absolutely terrific together.
- 1276
- 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:23,077
- Wonderful rapport.
- I'm laughing already.
- 1277
- 01:14:23,240 --> 01:14:24,515
- Dare we attempt a run-through?
- 1278
- 01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:26,518
- If you like.
- I-I mean, it's up to Stan.
- 1279
- 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:27,960
- Well, I can go off,
- come on again
- 1280
- 01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:30,151
- - and take it from the top.
- - That'll be great.
- 1281
- 01:14:30,440 --> 01:14:31,556
- Good idea.
- 1282
- 01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:35,715
- Belting, this, Stan, eh?
- 1283
- 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:37,269
- Guaranteed laughs.
- 1284
- 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:49,120
- What have you got there?
- 1285
- 01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:51,440
- Hard-boiled eggs and nuts?
- 1286
- 01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:54,833
- Hard-boiled eggs and nuts?
- Don't be so daft.
- 1287
- 01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:56,475
- What's the matter with you?
- 1288
- 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:57,994
- I can't eat that.
- 1289
- 01:14:58,160 --> 01:15:00,959
- Okay, and cue Stanley.
- 1290
- 01:15:03,720 --> 01:15:05,757
- Isn't this so much nicer, Babe?
- 1291
- 01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:07,752
- All the worry gone.
- 1292
- 01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:11,880
- Just you and I
- relaxing together.
- 1293
- 01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:15,272
- I spoke to Mother today,
- and she passes on her love.
- 1294
- 01:15:15,440 --> 01:15:16,271
- <i>And what, pray you,</i>
- 1295
- 01:15:16,440 --> 01:15:18,671
- <i>has Robin Hood done
- to inspire such wrath?</i>
- 1296
- 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:20,877
- <i>Well, we've heard
- that he steals</i>
- 1297
- 01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:23,475
- <i>from the poor
- to give to the rich.</i>
- 1298
- 01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:26,315
- - Isn't that right, Stan?
- - It certainly is.
- 1299
- 01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:28,320
- He's got the whole thing
- the wrong way round.
- 1300
- 01:15:28,440 --> 01:15:29,635
- Exactly.
- 1301
- 01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:33,117
- Our idea, you see,
- is to give to the poor
- 1302
- 01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:34,873
- by stealing from the poor,
- 1303
- 01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:37,158
- <i>thereby cutting out
- the middleman.</i>
- 1304
- 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:39,755
- <i>And the rich need never
- be any the wiser.</i>
- 1305
- 01:15:39,920 --> 01:15:41,718
- <i>- Precisely.
- - Hmm.</i>
- 1306
- 01:15:47,680 --> 01:15:48,796
- Oh!
- 1307
- 01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:12,632
- Here's another nice mess
- you've gotten me into.
- 1308
- 01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:15,600
- Mm!
- 1309
- 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:34,433
- How's that for you, Mr. Cook?
- 1310
- 01:17:04,160 --> 01:17:05,310
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- 1311
- 01:17:05,480 --> 01:17:07,676
- please take your seats,
- as tonight's performance
- 1312
- 01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:10,230
- with Mr. Stan Laurel
- and Mr. Nobby Cook
- 1313
- 01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:11,629
- is about to commence.
- 1314
- 01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:14,194
- Laurel and Cook.
- 1315
- 01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:15,914
- Enormously exciting.
- 1316
- 01:18:13,520 --> 01:18:14,795
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- 1317
- 01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:17,276
- I'm afraid that,
- due to circumstances
- 1318
- 01:18:17,440 --> 01:18:20,353
- beyond our control,
- tonight's performance
- 1319
- 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:22,318
- has been canceled.
- 1320
- 01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:24,995
- Canceled?
- 1321
- 01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:27,794
- What's going on?
- 1322
- 01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:34,598
- Tickets can be
- redeemed at the box office.
- 1323
- 01:18:34,760 --> 01:18:36,194
- Redeemed?
- 1324
- 01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:59,077
- You know,
- when you watch our movies,
- 1325
- 01:18:59,960 --> 01:19:02,555
- nobody else in the stories
- knows us,
- 1326
- 01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:05,870
- and we don't know anybody,
- either.
- 1327
- 01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:09,518
- It was just the two of us.
- 1328
- 01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:14,997
- All we had was each other.
- 1329
- 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:19,836
- It was just the way
- we wanted it.
- 1330
- 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:26,359
- I love him, Ida.
- 1331
- 01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:33,155
- We go home?
- 1332
- 01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:37,114
- Don't tell Babe.
- 1333
- 01:19:37,600 --> 01:19:40,991
- Tell him I'm going to continue
- with the dates in Ireland.
- 1334
- 01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:44,275
- It would upset him to think
- about me canceling the tour.
- 1335
- 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,639
- The doctor thinks
- you should be well enough
- 1336
- 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,554
- to travel tomorrow,
- which is wonderful.
- 1337
- 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:00,576
- Now, I'm gonna go down
- and see if there's any mail,
- 1338
- 01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:02,239
- and then the Laurels
- will be stopping by
- 1339
- 01:20:02,440 --> 01:20:05,000
- to say goodbye
- before they go to Ireland.
- 1340
- 01:20:05,520 --> 01:20:07,398
- I do hope it's not
- gonna rain today.
- 1341
- 01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:08,789
- When that wind gets up,
- 1342
- 01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:11,714
- the chill cuts
- right through to the bone.
- 1343
- 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:16,355
- I won't be long, Babe.
- 1344
- 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:19,160
- - Hurry back.
- - Yeah. Mm.
- 1345
- 01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:32,752
- <i>Mr. Hardy,
- I believe you suffered</i>
- 1346
- 01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,230
- - a mild heart attack today.
- - Oh.
- 1347
- 01:20:35,400 --> 01:20:40,077
- I also believe there is some
- evidence of congestive failure.
- 1348
- 01:20:40,240 --> 01:20:42,197
- Oh, dear God, I knew it.
- 1349
- 01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:45,835
- <i>Well, I think it's amazing</i>
- 1350
- 01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:47,759
- that you two
- are still going strong.
- 1351
- 01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:49,872
- I think it's wonderful
- you're still going.
- 1352
- 01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:51,640
- All me family love your films.
- 1353
- 01:20:52,280 --> 01:20:53,760
- <i>I suggest you go home</i>
- 1354
- 01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:56,310
- <i>as soon as you possibly can
- to seek specialist treatment.</i>
- 1355
- 01:20:56,480 --> 01:20:58,233
- <i>You just wait
- till I tell me mam it's you.</i>
- 1356
- 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,710
- <i>My wife loves your films.</i>
- 1357
- 01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:04,392
- You cannot possibly
- go onstage again
- 1358
- 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:06,756
- in your current condition.
- 1359
- 01:21:15,280 --> 01:21:16,839
- One of the bellboys
- down there...
- 1360
- 01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:19,276
- Raymond, I think his name was...
- said to tell you
- 1361
- 01:21:19,440 --> 01:21:21,796
- he had a good tip
- for you on a horse.
- 1362
- 01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:25,318
- Have you been gambling,
- Oliver Hardy?
- 1363
- 01:21:30,760 --> 01:21:32,353
- Oliver.
- 1364
- 01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:40,112
- Darling,
- you have money for bellboy?
- 1365
- 01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:41,316
- Sure.
- 1366
- 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:44,830
- Answer, please.
- I powder nose.
- 1367
- 01:21:46,200 --> 01:21:49,113
- And give him
- five shillings only, no more.
- 1368
- 01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:55,672
- I'm only supposed to give you
- a couple of...
- 1369
- 01:22:00,160 --> 01:22:01,833
- You're not leaving,
- are you, Stan?
- 1370
- 01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:06,757
- We've got some shows to do.
- 1371
- 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:29,318
- I think we should all get
- below now, out of this cold.
- 1372
- 01:22:29,480 --> 01:22:30,630
- Darling, I agree.
- 1373
- 01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:33,435
- Oliver, will you at least
- listen to me about this?
- 1374
- 01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:36,593
- Or are you determined
- to catch pneumonia?
- 1375
- 01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:38,473
- I'm enjoying
- the fresh air, honey.
- 1376
- 01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:39,477
- Really?
- 1377
- 01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:41,592
- Stan, why don't you
- come sit here?
- 1378
- 01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:44,919
- You girls
- go ahead if you're cold.
- 1379
- 01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:46,309
- All right.
- 1380
- 01:22:48,040 --> 01:22:49,440
- Come on, Ida.
- 1381
- 01:22:49,880 --> 01:22:51,360
- - I'll bring him down.
- - Yeah.
- 1382
- 01:22:51,960 --> 01:22:53,314
- Come, we go.
- 1383
- 01:22:56,440 --> 01:22:58,159
- Thought you might
- want this back.
- 1384
- 01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:00,870
- Thanks.
- 1385
- 01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:13,273
- I lied to you, Babe.
- 1386
- 01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:17,080
- What do you mean?
- 1387
- 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:20,633
- There is no movie.
- 1388
- 01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:25,192
- Miffin told me two weeks ago
- it had fallen through.
- 1389
- 01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:29,437
- I guess people
- just don't want to see
- 1390
- 01:23:29,600 --> 01:23:31,876
- Laurel and Hardy pictures
- anymore.
- 1391
- 01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:33,910
- But...
- 1392
- 01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,151
- if I'd told you
- straightaway, then...
- 1393
- 01:23:37,360 --> 01:23:39,040
- maybe we could have
- finished the tour early
- 1394
- 01:23:39,080 --> 01:23:41,914
- and you wouldn't have
- gotten sick.
- 1395
- 01:23:47,480 --> 01:23:50,234
- You knew two weeks ago
- there was no movie?
- 1396
- 01:23:50,800 --> 01:23:53,395
- Yes, and I've been feeling
- terrible about it.
- 1397
- 01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:57,029
- Stan...
- 1398
- 01:23:59,040 --> 01:24:00,235
- I knew.
- 1399
- 01:24:02,120 --> 01:24:03,998
- - You knew?
- - I knew.
- 1400
- 01:24:05,080 --> 01:24:07,231
- Well, why didn't you
- tell me you knew?
- 1401
- 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:10,276
- I thought
- you already knew I knew.
- 1402
- 01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:13,754
- How could I know
- that you knew I knew?
- 1403
- 01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:17,632
- What would my line be here?
- 1404
- 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:21,437
- Um, well, "Now I know you knew,
- but I thought you knew I knew,
- 1405
- 01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:23,910
- but you were pretending
- not to know I knew."
- 1406
- 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:25,520
- Thank you.
- 1407
- 01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:27,840
- Wait, if we both knew,
- 1408
- 01:24:27,880 --> 01:24:29,997
- why did we keep
- rehearsing the movie?
- 1409
- 01:24:33,720 --> 01:24:35,757
- What else are we gonna do?
- 1410
- 01:25:34,120 --> 01:25:35,156
- Thank you.
- 1411
- 01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:37,359
- Thank you very much.
- 1412
- 01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:40,594
- Thank you. Thank you.
- 1413
- 01:25:41,840 --> 01:25:43,000
- Thank you. Thank you so much.
- 1414
- 01:25:43,120 --> 01:25:45,271
- - Hello. Hello.
- - Thank you. I'm so sorry.
- 1415
- 01:25:45,440 --> 01:25:46,936
- - Excuse me. I'm sorry. Good evening.
- - Hello.
- 1416
- 01:25:46,960 --> 01:25:48,096
- - Good evening.
- - Oh, my goodness.
- 1417
- 01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:48,917
- Thank you very much. Hello.
- 1418
- 01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:50,759
- - Yes. Thank you so much.
- - Right.
- 1419
- 01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:52,514
- - Good evening.
- - No, no, no.
- 1420
- 01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:54,034
- - No. No, no, no.
- - What? Oh.
- 1421
- 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:56,396
- - No.
- - That's fine. That's fine.
- 1422
- 01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:57,789
- Good evening.
- 1423
- 01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:02,910
- Oh, my goodness,
- I'm a little nervous.
- 1424
- 01:26:03,480 --> 01:26:04,311
- Don't be.
- 1425
- 01:26:04,480 --> 01:26:06,073
- They'll be sensational.
- 1426
- 01:26:06,800 --> 01:26:08,951
- - Can I get you anything?
- - Oh, no touching.
- 1427
- 01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:44,279
- Hard-boiled eggs and nuts.
- 1428
- 01:26:45,840 --> 01:26:47,115
- Mmm!
- 1429
- 01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:43,598
- You look tired, Babe.
- 1430
- 01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:44,757
- You look real tired.
- 1431
- 01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:46,792
- Why don't we just go out there
- 1432
- 01:28:46,960 --> 01:28:48,519
- and, uh, skip the song,
- say good night
- 1433
- 01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:49,680
- and we can finish there?
- 1434
- 01:28:51,400 --> 01:28:52,720
- I'm fine.
- 1435
- 01:29:08,520 --> 01:29:11,035
- It was fun while it lasted,
- wasn't it, Stan?
- 1436
- 01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:27,077
- I'll miss us when we're gone.
- 1437
- 01:29:30,040 --> 01:29:31,474
- So will you.
- 1438
- 01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:45,472
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- thank you.
- 1439
- 01:29:45,640 --> 01:29:47,632
- We hope you've enjoyed
- our bit of fun tonight.
- 1440
- 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:49,976
- We've certainly enjoyed
- ourselves, haven't we, Stanley?
- 1441
- 01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:51,593
- We certainly have.
- 1442
- 01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:56,192
- Well, we'd like to finish now
- with a little dance.
- 1443
- 01:29:57,760 --> 01:29:58,760
- Oh, no.
- 1444
- 01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:03,755
- Maestro,
- if you would be so kind.
- 1445
- 01:30:04,400 --> 01:30:05,675
- Stanley.
- 1446
- 01:30:08,160 --> 01:30:11,551
- - You sure?
- - Yes, I'm sure. I can do it.
