DESCRIPTION:

They were one of the movies most successful and best-loved comic duos, probably because their irresistible slapstick antics were underscored by an indomitable optimism. Beginning with shorts made at the Hal Roach Studios, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy struck a universal chord by sharing a contentious yet benign friendship that always survived whatever indignities their mutual bumbling brought upon them. This two-disc collection focuses on the team at their zenith during the sound era and spotlights two features produced by Roach for M-G-M. The Devils Brother (1933) (also known as Fra Diavolo) is a laugh-filled adaptation of the Auber operetta in which Stanlio and Ollio tangle with a notorious robber baron. The delightful Bonnie Scotland (1935) is a misadventure that takes the boys to Scotland and India.
