Busy Bodies is a 1933 short comedy film starring Laurel and Hardy. (Colour Version is here: • Video )
Stan and Ollie are in high spirits as they drive in an old Model T to their new jobs at the sawmill. Laurel turns on the car radio (at the time a luxury item in newer cars, not expected in an old jalopy); the "radio" is revealed to be a wind-up phonograph stashed under the car hood. Arriving at the sawmill, a slapstick sequence has them repeatedly walking into planks of wood. Starting work, Stan soon traps Ollie's hands in a window frame. After freeing him they trick a shop worker (Charlie Hall) into smoking despite a "No Smoking" sign. Stan then tears a strip off Ollie's pants with a plane and in the resulting 'tit for tat' dips a paintbrush in glue and sticks it onto Ollie's chin. Finding it is not possible to pull it off he prepares like a barber and shaves it with a plane. Ollie then gets propelled through a ventilator duct and out of an attic vent port.
Stan climbs a ladder to help him out, but the ladder topples over with them both on it. Down below, two men see the ladder falling towards them. One falls into some whitewash while the other hides in a shed, which proves to be a bad idea when the duo crash onto the shed, demolishing it. As Laurel helps Hardy out of the wreckage, there is a knocking from beneath the door. The man they help out proves to be their foreman, who was the one who sought cover in the shed. They beat a hasty retreat. The foreman would have run after them, but he was crowned by a small barrel that got kicked down the ventilator shaft and out the vent port. Attempting to flee, their car gets sawed in two lengthwise by a large band saw whilst they remain seated in it. The two fall out of the collapsing wreckage. Laurel finds the phonograph still intact and plays a record. Hardy is singularly unimpressed by music now, and chases Laurel.

Imagine telling Stan and Ollie that we're still loving their work in the year 2024.
I always like to imagine that myself.
Such a good statement- i will search for L&H when I want to smile and laugh out loud. To this day.

Thank goodness the internet can share this genius with the world.

The greatest ever, sadly I'm deaf but these shorts work just as well without sound, been watching these two for sixty years.
My hearings ok, but I can see your point, slap stick, soooo well performed and funny..no word's needed.
❤️🙏🏴
The one with the airplane us my favourite. I am 43 and still five them current 😂
I’m pleased you can get Max enjoyment from these magical posts. Thank you to all fans who post so we can watch. I’d love it if Stan and Ollie knew how much their magic timeless comedy was helping so many folks through some awful times 🌹
They sure know how to made a funny scene even for silent film as well though 😄
I’m 24 and I grew up with laurel and hardy. I’m thankful that my grandfather and dad showed it to me when I was a kid 😊
Luca, I'm 68, and I watched these with MY dad. Good taste never dies! He watched these during the depression, and into the 50's/90's.

I'm 24 and I'm so happy that my dad had dozens of laurel n hardy cassettes in his cupboard 🤭.
I watched these with your granddad every Saturday morning of our lives. We lived at the house on 4th avenue. What awesome memories. What fun we had. Wally. 🌺

Hello an Indian.
All my sadness, sorrows vanished for 18 minutes
So well put :)
Just the present moment ist what counts. And the 2 comedians from 80 years ago have the ability to put you into the present. Which liberates the mind before it starts contemplating again. And makes our lives miserable again.
@@forseti24 great comment. Wishing you the best!
Don't despair friends, when bleakness sets in, this is a refuge. If I hadn't seen it, ya' wunta' believed me.
Well put, Stan & Ollie never cease to cheer me up. Pure genius
The best comic duo in history. That they are still popular and funny 88 years later is a testament to their talent and genius.

They're funny all right, but Beavis & Butthead take the cake.
The best "BAR NONE,"by a country mile.
Basically I grew up watching them on
Saturday mornings as a kid growing up
👍👌
Totally agree " best in history " bar none
Sitting here alone and screaming with helpless laughter. And the thing was made almost a century ago, now.
Goes to show they knew what they were doing a hundred years or so ago. Nobody does ridiculous comedy like they used to then. In Sunday papers at the time, was a comic strip drawn on them, I can just remember.
Hard to imagine this is heading to 100 years old. Still the best.
Their first talkies will be 100 in 8 yrs.
@@garyzimmer8061 😳😵
It is!! But second best? What about Hancock's Half Hour?
good comedy get never boring
My grand aunt Virginia worked for Hal Roach Studios. In her sunset years she told me all about her work with Laurel & Hardy, The Three Stooges, Our Gang / Little Rascals etc. They were great, magnificent stories that held my youthful fascination with the classics that could never be duplicated these days. She died at the age of 107 in 1989. May she and all our classic heroes rest in peace with God, but live in our hearts and memory forever, for all humanity.
Great to read your words, thanks! ♡ from The Netherlands.
@
CaptainFoufeu I'm sure I speak for many when I say we would love to hear some details of those anecdotes.
@@blackdot3538 Sorry you dont believe it, but it is true.
Did she also work at Columbia (re the 3 Stooges) or did she just have stories to tell about them from the same era? What area of work was she involved with? This must've been a true highlight of her life. L&H are eternal fun for all of us!
@@RSEFX I was only 12 years old when my Aunt Virginia Mims died in late 1989, so I don't remember all the precise details. However, I do recall that she was a stage hand, so she worked with all the props.
Each item was made to easily break apart upon impact as to not injure any of the actors. Nobody had a stuntman for most of what they did, except for times when special effects would be used, such as when bodies would go flying out a window or pulled on strings or moving platforms, etc. Anything that would be considered a potentially harmful substance, or something too messy to clean up between takes such as paint, were either improvised ingredients to appear as harmful, or replaced between cuts when the accident with it had to be conducted.
Sometimes the actors got minor and sometimes serious injuries. She mentioned an incident when US Army Lieutenant Colonel Walter Long was injured during the chase scene on L&H's "Any Old Port," where he played Mugsie Long, the tough guy that wants to marry the innkeeper's daughter, and boxes Stanley. LTC Long did his own stunts. He received a laceration on his leg when falling off the platform into the water, on one of the early takes. However, it was reshot when he healed, and he fell correctly, and the new shot is the one we see in the film. LTC Long was a well known actor in his time, balancing film roles along with his army duties throughout World Wars 1 and 2. LTC Long also starred on several other L&H films, such as Butch on "Going Bye Bye," the Sea Captain on "The Live Ghost," and The Tiger on "Pardon Us." I remember this story well because "Pardon Us" is my favorite L&H film, and nobody forgets a tough and ugly face like his once they see it.
Aunt Virginia didnt work for any other studios, so she didnt work with the Three Stooges or other popular troupes outside of Hal Roach Studios. The only other actor I remember her talking about was Will Rogers and the Our Gang children, but according to Wikipedia, other Hal Roach Studio production actors included Max Davidson, Thelma Todd, ZaSu Pitts, Lupe Vélez, Patsy Kelly, Harry Langdon and Charley Chase Parrott.
When Aunt Virginia died, she willed to me a cuckoo clock that she owned that I adored, which had been in the family since her mother was a child. Also in her will, she gave me the Mims' family journals, which have been kept since shortly before the Mims family came to America in the late 1600s from Wales. Included in the journals is a first-hand account of the survival of only 2 members of the family, during the historical account of the Fort Mims Massacre on August 30, 1813 during the Creek War (40 miles north of Mobile, Alabama). It was written by Elijah Mims, son of Samuel Mims, the land owner of where the fort was built upon. You can Wikipedia the Fort Mims Massacre.
i was born at the end of ‘99 but the fact that i used to watch these on the tv when i was young😃
I grew up watching these two on Saturday morning...so hilarious...im 72 now..

Hands down, the funniest comedy duo EVER. And unlike so many others, they truly liked/loved each other and were each other's best friends. Stan lived a little more than seven years after Ollie's death, but he never regained his joie de vivre. But what a trove of comedy classics they left us! God bless Laurel and Hardy, may they live forever!
mackb909 away from filming they rarely spent time together although yes they were best friends.
Stan actually bullied Stan on the set. Role reversal
Abbott and Costello were pretty good also
mackb909 That truth, I pray live Forever. True amazing actors or comedy. One funny film movie, fun watch all ages. Thank you.
@@bopechanga1129 didnt rate them at all,,,,,,,sorry/./

For showing it to me when I was a little boy
RIP 🙏 Stan laurel. Gone 59 years ago today x ❤
I'm making sure my kids grow up watching the greatest comedy team just as I did.
Brian McLaughlin good for you! I had my son watch these two on VHS when he was a youngster in the 80s. He even had their dialogue memorized.
My Father was age #9😃back in '33.
I try to get mine to...but the music is not to their ear bud's taste!!! Frustrating and interesting!! Any tips??!
My dad grew me up on them since I was a little girl I’m 22 now and still watch these before bed
FOESHOW
Oliver's confused look at the camera always cracks me up.
Still funny almost 100 years later. Massive respect to them both. Slapstick at its greatest, they will never ever be topped. Big love to Ollie & Stan ❤️
Both their expressions are priceless and they often aren't saying anything.
Ninety one years after this film was made, here we are still enjoying every hilarious second of this comedy classic. Their films have been enjoyed by millions the world over and have filled our heart and souls with happiness and laughter leaving happy memories in our minds. Stan and Ollie remained close friends to the very end and the latest film about their lives after Hollywood fame reveals the sad times they experienced on this side of the pond. May their memory live strong among us all who enjoy nothing more than a good old belly laugh, crying and falling about the place in pure pleasure. God bless Stan and Ollie 🤣😂
When Stanley Kramer was puting together the casting for "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" at the beginning of the 1960s, Stan Laurel was asked if he wanted to be in the movie, but he turned it down. Oliver Hardy had passed away a few years before, and when he did, Stan vowed that he would never be in another film without his partner and friend.
Stan Laurel, interviewed by John McCabe in 1960, said: "It's strange, a strange thing. Our popularity has lasted so long!" That was almost 60 years ago, and I'm still watching Laurel & Hardy. Love 'em. Always have, always will.
And even today..we still laugh with Stan and Babe.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen
those were the days.....days of joy and pure happines
In the mid 1980s I found a VHS version , containing four episodes. I'd often thought as an 11 year old, "How will I ever get to see these hilarious little movies in the future?" It was at a K-Mart, one I'd worked for as an auto mechanic. Praise God for Goggle bringing a child's dream into fruition, now that I'm 73.
THESE ARE TIMELESS CLASSICS THAT EVERYONE SEEN IN THE 1970'S 80'S 90'S AND THEY NEVER GO OUT OF STYLE
Yeah absolute classics hell i’m a gen z and even I love them the comedy of laurel and hardy never gets old
Without question they're the best comic duo ever bar none. Ensure that your kids and grandkids watch these Kings of Comedy so that Stan and Ollie are never, ever forgotten. Let's keep their genius alive forever because they certainly deserve nothing less. Wonderful stuff!

Absolutely agree, im from walsall not far from your beloved Wolverhampton and i love em.
I get the feeling that we fear for the future of humour and comedy and good cheer as the world marches on towards robotising mankind through advanced but ultimately meaningless, soulless technological progress.
It's hard to believe that while L&H were having fun making movies, the rise of fascism and Communism in Europe was taking place.
Dude the three stooges were better than these two in every way these two aren’t even funny in any way
Always watching Laurel and Hardy.
I truly think this is one of their funniest episodes.
"That's a blue print of the Boulder Dam!" LOL! 👍
"it makes the whole world brighter....why even you look bright this morning".
haha brutal 😁
Sometimes when I get bored, I come here and see Lauren and Hardy, love them, rest in peace 🌹❤️
I am 70 years old. I grew up watching these two lunatics on the old round black and white television sets. I'm sitting here now watching them again and on my phone laughing my rear end off. If anybody goes to heaven it should be these two guys.
Me too lol 😂😂❤
I love this show and I am only 10 years old and my dad told me to watch it and I love it
my grandma suffered a fatal stroke at a young age. paralyzed on her right side and left side of her face she asked me to watch our show which is this. putting this on made her and i so happy, hope you get well soon.

It wasn’t really a fatal stroke if she’s still alive.....
I'm so sorry to hear that😢 btw fatal means she did died
The timing is amazing - long pauses and lingering looks, with bursts of mayhem. The music is also so wonderful.
They made the great transition from the silent films to the talkies. No one else came close to this level of quality.

@@premanadi I stand corrected. Cheers!
My dad and I used to watch this every Saturday. Sadly my dad passed away too early. I almost forgot these memories but fortunately today out of nowhere I got recommended by youtube about these two and all the memories are passing before my eyes. Thank you guys for those wonderful memories. Please like this message so I get reminder to watch this.
I used to watch it every saturday, too. Why can't telly be like it once was, with a lineup worth turning the thing on for. World Championship Wrestling, where clowns threw each other about and then came Stan and Ollie and now and then the Our Gang, straight from the 1920s. Not so hilarious as once might have been, but really interesting from the point of view of early talkies.
It NEVER gets old.
I am amazed at how profoundly funny it was and still is despite a simple plot. No comedian today could take that script and do anything with it that was remotely funny but these two geniuses make it golden forever with a mannerism here, and a certain look, there. I would even say 'beautiful comedy'.
Probably the best duo of comedians that will ever grace this planet, timeless, iconic, epic, legendary, inspirational, and many other great words I could type for ever how good these guys were. I am not sure what life would be without the unique Laurel and Hardy, RIP guys, you were thee BEST!
Probably ???

Since I was a kid and STILL , the thing that kills me is that look straight on the camera of Oli when Stan made something stupid again...GOLD.
Watched this with my Dad several times when I was a kid in the 1980's, we died laughing. Thank you for bringing this great memory back. Gotta love that car stereo!
After 72 years, I'm still laughing at the antics of the boys. Great fun, great humor, no messages. Just watching two great artists, possibly the most underrated comedy team, entertaining us and helping us to forget un-funny "stuff" for awhile. Thanks Mr Laurel and Mr Hardy. Rest in peace gentlemen.
They've been more or less forgotten now but they weren't underrated by any means, at the time and immediately after. They had a newspaper comic strip done of them in the late 30s. Doubt they were ever truly out of date.
@@petertaylor3600 Agreed, never out date and always brings a smile to my face just thinking of them.

No need for any foul language to get CHEAP laughs. their inimitable talent gets the laughs and testament to their brilliance many of these films almost 100years old and still so funny.
Used to watch this on BBC2 back in the 80's.
A wind up gramophone in the engine bay! Brilliant!
When all you needed was a frame, a few props and two magnificent actors.
Doesn't get any better. Genius. Often imitated never bettered
Excellent pure comedy.
Even after 100 years they are best comedians .
Even just at the music I am creasing up.. Pure genius.. I love Stan's loyalty to Olly with the cigar smoker..
Whoever covered continuity on the set was on point for the 30's ....
Still watching in 2019. Never forget Laurel and Hardy!
Ah showcasing the industrial revolution.The effects on these shorts are truly incredible for the age.
90 years on and it still makes me laugh and will always make me laugh. The greatest double act of all time.

I love watching them, especially when I'm ill, they make me feel so much better, god bless them :)
One of their funniest classics, and probably their most elaborate and interactive set. I'seen this a dozen times, and I still laughed out loud in several spots, including their little fight with Charlie Hall (AKA 'The Little Menace').
Lovely to see Charlie Hall in the cast of this one. Laurel and Hardy's most frequent film collaborator
Poor guy was the victim of their every activity no matter the movie 😂
My father mentioned me about this today they use to watch this in 8mm projecter.... He was so nostalgic after I shown him this video.... Thanks
Love from India
I’m watching this and I’m 21 but I’ll will always be a fan of these 2 , this is what you call original comedy, 2 legends RIP BOYS
I watched these 2 while I was growing up - am 51 right now and they are every bit as funny as I remember - the movie based on their lives should be watched if you haven't already seen it, it's excellent!
remember watching laurel and hardy with my grandad as a kid so funny 😂
Hello Christine, How are you doing?
Laurel & Hardy never did anything productive, all destructive, and that's why we all love them, because they meant to be productive. They just couldn't. Isn't that life?
Trasfomation laurel and hardyua-cam.com/video/_MgwgC6ERdQ/v-deo.html
Nah, the characters tried at doing something right but they weren't competent enough to do so. The Frank Spencer character was similar.
Why.. even you look productive this morning...
@@jorgeborges7707 Ollie would have been productive most likely, were he working with someone normal and not Laurel. Laurel makes up for it with the incompetency of dozens of people
j walkin wooow
YES
I hope somehow these wonderful geniuses are aware NOW that they are still loved and still bring laughter and joy to this world. What a priceless gift and legacy.
even when we watch every episode you can alway's find a laugh with their words or just a look from either one of then .. as they say a picture can show a million words these two Cracked it i still love and adore these films
Laurel and Hardy films are a terrific antidote to the desperate times we are going through at the moment, and this is one of the best; very good stunt work, a clever scenario, some excellent visual gags, and what looks like an excruciatingly painful shave for Ollie. All topped off with their car being sawn in half. Brilliant!
this was part of my childhood ,,my father was an avid fan ,,these short films were always on,,never dates never boring and always funny😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁v
I used to watch this on Sunday mornings in the 70's. Then Abbott & Costello would come on for another 4 hours afterwards. That's growing up with "Real" comedy.
Who needs modern "memes" to make you laugh when you have Stan Laurel And Oliver Norvel Hardy.
And still funny all these years later. Thank you gentlemen.
These two gave comedy so much of its heart and soul and their place at the top of the pile is beyond doubt. The genius of Stan and the sheer talent of Ollie is timeless in its appeal.
This, along with Big Business, is an absolute masterclass in how to escalate something from a simple start to total destruction. A complete joy.
I put this and Towed In A Hole (where they're fixing up the boat, "Fresh Fiiiiiiiiiish! PARP!") as their most perfect films. But yep I totally agree that Big Business is the best escalating tit-for-tat fight they ever did, total mayhem. I'd also cite as a great scene the shin kicking scene in You're Darn Tootin. This year (2020) they are releasing the restored, Battle Of The Century on Blu Ray after finding a copy of the lost 2nd reel with the complete custard pie fight.
Laurel & Hardy: The Definitive Restorations 4 disk set. Although I'm not sure I want to shell out $60 + shipping to the UK to see 4 minutes of Laurel and Hardy I've never seen before.
The manner in which they gesture...I can watch their hand motions and get a genuine laugh.
