That was sweet. As a child I didn't like it when Ollie hit Stan and he did it a lot. I've got a blind spot about Charlot too. I admire him but don't find him funny.
Ah, I recently got a load of L & H films - including this one - for me and Mrs D. to watch and was amazed at the sheer slowness of their comedy. It works though :-)
absolutely too delightful for words, sugarpie! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to yodel. Thanks for the smiles! Btw, what is terpsichory?

ReplyDeletesavannah: glad you liked it
ReplyDeletewillow: I'm sure they'll let you if you ask them. Terpsichory = dancing.
Pat: there was a lot of child-like fighting between them, and it went both ways.
I'm with you on Charlot.
Lulu: it's quite fey in its way, though.
Gadjo: precisely so. Even the mayhem scenes unfold like slow poetry.
Thank you, Kev. That took me back to a very nice time and place. As John Cleese said, "I delight in the manifestation of the terpsichorean muse"
ReplyDeleteMuch what M. DeFarge and I do every weekend, as you can imagine.
ReplyDeleteMadame DeF: it must be a bit like a busman's holiday after the usual working week.
ReplyDeleteTom: sorry old boy, missed your comment. Glad you liked it.
