CLASSIC MOVIE CLOWNS
SONS OF THE DESERT
Program begins with the shorts:
Restored! “Brats” (1930, 21 min.) This hilarious short features Stan and Ollie in dual roles - as adults hoping to spend a quiet evening playing checkers, and as the mischievous kids who make that impossible. Shown with the original Vitaphone soundtrack!
Restored! "Helpmates" (1932, 20 min. Dir. James Parrott) Hungover Ollie asks Stan to help him clean up after a wild party before his wife returns; their housecleaning efforts fail in spectacular fashion.
Introduction by Jeff Joseph. Join us at 6:30 PM in the lobby, where author Randy Skretvedt will sign his book Laurel and Hardy: The Magic Behind the Movies.
Screening format: DCP. | SONS OF THE DESERT restored by UCLA Film & Television Archive with funding provided by the George Lucas Family Foundation and The Film Foundation. “Brats” and “Helpmates” photochemically preserved and restored by the UCLA Film and Television Archive.
