Laurel and Hardy: The Stan and Ollie Collection (DVD)

A collection of six films featuring Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. In 'Utopia', Stan and Ollie inherit a yacht, along with a small island. They set sail, accompanied by a stateless refugee, and a stowaway. A violent storm causes our heroes to crash on their island. Together they decide to create their own republic. In 'Lucky Dog', Stan befriends a stray dog and Oliver Hardy takes a liking to Stan's wallet. After causing so much chaos, Stan's only option is to get rid of the dog. Just in time, the dog saves the day, and teaches the villain Hardy a lesson too. In 'The Stolen Jools', a famous actress has her jewels stolen. Everyone from the police to the mob want to know the identity of the thief, and almost everyone is under suspicion. In 'Kill or Cure', Stan's selling a combination of furniture polish, auto cleaner and health tonic. With a mixture like that, Stan can't stay out of trouble for long. In 'This Is Your Life', Stan and Ollie receive the ultimate accolade by appearing on the TV show. Finally, in 'Tree in a Test Tube', Stan and Ollie star in a short information film promoting the use of wood products in everyday society in their own slapstick style.
