boo hissI really like them.
Even allowing for the passage of time, their early
Hal Roach shorts are works of genius.
My two kids usually end up rolling on the floor laughing!
Bring them back to TV that's what I say!

Yeh....It had "It's Friday" on the top. I thought chainsaws when I saw it. Then I saw a little black X, I clicked it and it all got so much better....

I likeChaplin too - but he was more 'cerebral'.
L&H at their best were gut-bustingly funny.
Mind you Buster Keaton was fab, too!

I've notseen that one either. But Modern Times etc were brilliant.
I picked up some Buster Keaton fully digitally remastered on DVD
(including his best Steam Boat Bill jnr - where the whole town blows
away building by building!) for a fiver!
I'm going home to watch it!
