Audience Member A consistently entertaining and well-plotted cautionary tale in which Laurel and Hardy always appear to be having fun. It was remade as 'Sons of the Desert' in 1933. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Mike M You're struck by the innocence of what transpires: the worst Stan can think of to get up to on an evening away from his missus is to be poked and have his hair ruffled by the good-time gal he's plucked from the gutter. (Ollie, looking on, smiles benignly.) If the second half, in which the leads have to explain themselves, plays as a little flatter, Stan's extended mime to Ollie, describing what the pair of them were supposed to have seen that night, might be read as a worthwhile training ground: the stars were learning how to sell a joke, or an idea, or even just a lie, without words. In the final image, suggesting this wasn't the only deception in town, innocence is replaced by (carnal) knowledge. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/25/11 Full Review Audience Member Not one of the greatd duo's better shorts. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
