Laurel & Hardy Volume 12 – L & H and the Law/Classic Shorts

Another collection of classic Laurel and Hardy shorts, with the duo finding themselves on the wrong side of the law. In ‘Scram!’ a judge orders them to leave town after finding them guilty of vagrancy. ‘Night Owls’ sees Stan and Ollie in the same condition, but the local cop is willing to let them go if they are willing to pose as burglars. ‘Ladrones’ is a Spanish-language version of ‘Night Owls’. Stan and Ollie are shaven-headed convicts in ‘The Second Hundred Years’. In ‘Call of the Cuckoo’ they make a guest appearance in the Max Davidson comedy. In ‘Duck Soup’ they elude the sheriff by taking refuge in an empty mansion, posing as owner and maid. ‘Forty-Five Minutes From Hollywood’ casts Ollie as a hotel detective. And ‘Big Business’ involves them in battle with James Finlayson, following their attempts to sell him a Christmas tree.
