Mr. Slater’s Poultry Market (Drůbeží trh pana Slatera, 1944)

Stan Laurel a Oliver Hardy. Rozhlasový skeč.

Natočeno 1944.

Pozn.: Stan Laurel (the slender man) and Oliver (Ollie) Hardy (the robust man) were two of the world’s most famous comedians between 1917 and 1951. While Stan Laurel (Arthur Stanley Jefferson) was a British music hall performer prior to 1917, Oliver Hardy was reared in Madison, Georgia.

Laurel and HardyKnown more for their films such as Sons of the Desert, Another Fine Mess, Busy Bodies, Dirty Work, Tit for Tat, The Brats, Flying Deuces/Utopia, and March of the Wooden Horses (after Babe in Toyland) this collection presents songs, interviews, and clips from the pair.

There is one old time radio show on this collection „Mr. Slater’s Poultry Market.“ In this show Laurel and Hardy get a job working to kill and deliver chickens. It is unlike their other work in that both Laurel and Hardy play comedic stereotypes as even more dimwitted than their usual style. In the show, the duo gets mistaken for notorious murderers by a group of mobsters and the trouble (and laughs) starts there. It is especially humorous when Stan and Ollie describe how they kill a chicken as the mobsters imagine that they are describing how the kill people. This collection is indispensable for any Laurel and Hardy fan.
