Boarding House Gravy

Advantages: Classic Laurel & Hardy movies
Disadvantages: Lack of English soundtrack on Be Big/Gravy combo

...immaterial when it comes to Laurel And Hardy; these two comedians were pure genius. To watch a Laurel And Hardy movie is a thing of beauty, there stupidity hysterical, their clumsiness plausible. Up to the 1980's you could seldom go a week without seeing a Laurel & Hardy movie on TV, but since the mid 1980's they have been sadly vacant from UK television at least; a whole generation of viewers have been deprived. Laughing Gravy is one of their classics ...
...term movie is referred to Laurel And Hardy features although now days they would be referred to as a short. While back in 1931 when Laughing Gravy was made full feature movies were made, when it comes to comedy a 20 minute running time was preferable. Laughing Gravy was a rare exception deliberately made longer with a running time of 31 minutes. Sadly Western Electric systems felt this too long and edited the movie down to just 20 minutes. The first ...

Not bad dog- bad owners

Advantages: Very sweet dog
Disadvantages: Stupid people

It is said that a bad dog owner makes a bad parent. This film is a product of our supernanny, lack of discipline culture. The dog is naughty, but what do the owners do? Nothing. No telling off, nothing. All I wanted to do was give the dog a smack on the nose and sterilise the owners. Instead they pop out kids like there is no tommorow, and then, surprise, surprise, can't cope. The acting is terrible, the storyline is non existent and mundane. It ...
