Air Raid Wardens (Region 2)

Bought this video for my son who is 21 and autistic (he loves the format of video for some reason) the seller kept us updated of when parcel was sent and sent a lovely note with the parcel this was appreciated as we could keep Dan updated on how long his video would be . I can advise the seller that it is now in my sons private collection (he has thousands of them) and he has watched Laurel and Hardy many times over nowThanks Alan

One of the last Laurel & Hardy movies from MGM. However one of the best L & H movies of that time 1943.

Air raid wardens, see's our duo trying to help with the war effort, with calamitous results. The dog steals the show!

Great laughter from the proberbly the best duo in comedy history

Pirate DVD

Some of the Laurel & Hardy films from the 1940s I'd been told were rubbish turned out actually to be pretty good. This, unfortunately, wasn't one of them. The plot involves Laurel and Hardy unable to join any of the armed forces and resorting to becoming air raid wardens in order to do their bit. It isn't long before they fall foul of Nazi spies. Filmed as this was during the war, it's full of patriotic propaganda. I may be in a minority, but I think that's just wrong for a Laurel & Hardy film. If it had all been played for laughs, then fine, but this film takes itself far too seriously. I mean, Nazis in a L & H film. It's like having the Taliban in an episode of Scooby Doo. The dynamic duo's characters are completely wrong. Can you imagine the Ollie of the Hal Roach years telling anyone he's 'not as good as other people'? Edgar Kennedy (one of L and H's regular foils from the Roach years) is wasted and what slapstick there is in the film is pretty leaden. For completists only.

very good
