Laurel and Hardy promo reel for MGM - in French!



"In 1936, MGM Studios prepared a little eight minute featurette to promote upcoming movies. For it, a brief opening and a briefer closing were filmed featuring Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, along with their frequent co-star, Jimmy Finlayson. Apparently, all copies of this film have vanished off the face of the planet...at least, copies of it in English. A few years ago though, someone in Europe somewhere found a print that had been dubbed into French and this is it." - Mark Evanier
