Book Presentation:
This is a film-by-film study of the Laurel and Hardy films, from the silent era into the 1950s. Laurel and Hardy successfully transitioned from silent films to sound, from short films to features, and when the culture changed in the 1940s, the duo’s films adapted once again. By discussing each film, this book takes the reader through Laurel and Hardy’s entire career including sustained popularity and an Oscar win. These comedies remain enjoyable to new generations in the 21st century.
