Rating: - Post 1940 L@H box set Volume 2
First off, I'm going to buy any and every L@H short and feature that exist. I'm almost there. I have the L@H Encylopdia, by Glenn Mitchell. L@H the Magic Behind the Movies, by Randy Skretvdt and The complete films of L@H, by William K.Everson. All very imformative. Anyone knows that their best films are from 1927-1940. But do any of those come with a commontary? (with the exception of "Fra Diavalo" and "Bonnie Scotland" on T.C.M. Dvd). These commentaries are Awsome! This disc set has them on all three movies and the people who cleaned up and transfered these movies did a good job. There were continuity problems when they originally tied each movie together when originally filmed. The movies in the 1930s have more problems. But they are few and far between. I'm not going to explain what each movie is about. I'm sure there plenty of reviewers that have done so. If you are a true L@H fan these movies still ... Read More
Rating: - ANOTHER PRECIOUS RARITY
After purchasing this DVD set,I can safely say that I've seen all of Stan and Ollie's post Hal Roach features.Including their two MGM films,Air Raid Wardens and Nothing But Trouble,and their last real doozy,Utopia.
My favourite film in this set would be The Dancing Masters.Like Jitterbugs before it,we see much more of Stan and Ollie.Plus I found this film to be even funnier than both Jitterbugs and The Big Noise.My favourite scene is the bus ride.I couldn't stop laughing at Oliver going down that rollercoaster.
Rating: - Stronger than the previous Fox set
I found the films contained in this set to generally be funnier and stronger than the ones on the first volume. While it's true that L&H's career after they left Hal Roach is kind of hit and miss, it's not true that everything they did after 1940 is horrible and deserves to be dismissed out of hand without letting the viewer judge for oneself or without a modern critical re-evaluation of these films. I wish more people would realise that these films are *different* than their Hal Roach films, not inferior per se. They actually have many very funny moments and some pretty decent scripts, if one can get past the popular misconception about them being unwatchable garbage.
'The Bullfighters' (filmed in late 1944 but released in 1945) is easily the strongest of the three. Its strength is due in no small part to how they finally had gotten a sizeable amount of creative control back by this time, and how Stan ... Read More
Rating: - A WORTHWHILE COLLECTION
LAUREL & HARDY WERE THE GRANDEST OF ALL COMEDYTEAMS THROUGHOUT THE 1930'S.
AND ALTHOUGH THEIR WORK ON THESE LATER FILMS PALE IN COMPARISON TOO THE WORK THEY DID SEVERAL YEARS EARLIER,IT IS OF INTEREST TO ANY FAN OF THEIRS
TO HAVE THIS COLLECTION ALONG WITH THE FIRST VOLUME AS A GENTLE REMINDER
THAT BEFORE ABBOTT & COSTELLO OR EVEN MARTIN & LEWIS CAME ALONG,STAN &
OLLIE MADE THE WHOLE WORLD LAUGH.ALL SIX OF THESE LATER MOVIES CAPTURE THE
EMBODIEMENT OF SIXTEEN YEARS IN MAKING FILM COMEDIES AT THE HAL ROACH STU-
DIOS.A LOT OF FAMILIAR ROUTINES ARE CRAMMED INTO THESE LATER TWENTIETH
CENTURY FOX FILMS AND WE GET A LITTLE TASTE OF WHAT CAME BEFORE.EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT A FAN I BELIEVE THAT THESE FILMS HAVE MORE THAN COMEDY APPEAL
JUST LIKE ANY OLD FILM WE HAVE A CHANCE TO REVISIT ANOTHER PLACE IN TIME.
