SERIES: THE LAUREL & HARDY FILMOGRAPHY REVIEW SERIES


Called the “Holy Grail of Laurel and Hardy movies” (it was remade for arguable their most famous short, 1932's The Music Box — they swapped out the washing machine for a piano and history would never be the same) by a guy who I cut and pasted a quote from off Wikipedia, this lost film has been comically recreated using stills by not one, but two different users on YouTube (here and here — I don’t really recommend watching those unless you’re a psycho like me). Keeping in theme with how I treat all lost films, I will be awarding this a perfect 10/10 score. Unless we know for sure that this isn’t a masterpiece, then forever it shall be known. Suprisingly, this is the only completely "lost" movie in the entire 107-film output of L&H.
