Synopsis:

Since 1927, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were one of the most popular comic film duo ever created. Both had previously had a successful solo career. They became a world famous duo: The bossy, fat and complacent Oliver Hardy and the naive, shy and thin Stan Laurel. They were both awkward and they showed the most simple situations in haywire. Between 1927 and 1950 together they made 105 short and long films. In this box set you will find a collection of their first works from the famous film 'Wizard of Oz' and the feature film 'Flying Deuces'.
