Stan & Ollie
With their golden era long behind them, comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy embark on a variety hall tour of Britain and Ireland. Despite the pressures of a hectic schedule, and with the support of their wives Lucille and Ida – a formidable double act in their own right – the pair's love of performing, as well as for each other, endures as they secure their place in the hearts of their adoring public From TMDB

unlabelledView post →Bristol features as many different British and Irish cities throughout the charming 2018 film “Stan & Ollie”. Never is it more noticeable than this scene from “Newcastle” which is actually the side door of the Hippodrome and features a glimpse of Bristol’s famous iron pavement edging.

unlabelledView post →If you haven’t seen it, Jon S Baird’s smashing film “Stan & Ollie” is on BBC 1 this evening. I talked to Jon about his love for the comedy duo and his admiration for how Steve Coogan and John C Reilly portrayed them so perfectly it was “almost uncanny”! www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/past-time...
unlabelledView post →Even ignoring silent film comedies like Stan & Ollie, my favorite films at age 10 included The Adventures of Robin Hood (44 yrs then) & Against All Flags (30 yrs). Yes, I adored Errol Flynn movies. Oh, and Rio Grande (32 yrs, b&w) with John Wayne & again <dreamy sigh> Maureen O'Hara.
unlabelledView post →TRIVIA: Like other early talkies, this film was reshot in other languages, with casts who spoke the language and Stan & Ollie learning their lines phonetically. In one of the foreign-language versions, the butler was played by Boris Karloff. (IMDB) 🖤

unlabelledView post →Everyone has better things to be happy about than this, but I watched #Stan&Ollie last night: Steve Coogan and John C Reilly as one of the most fondly remembered comedy duos of all time. It's a lovely film, with great performances and a genuine friendship at its heart. Just not Stan and Ollie's.

unlabelledView post →41. Stan & Ollie A genuinely heartfelt and loving tribute movie about aging comics Laurel & Hardy on their final tour of England in 1953 that gave me an appreciation for the two comics. Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly play both dramatic and funny seamlessly.

There’s even a picture of Jon and his pal as school pupils dressed up as Stan & Ollie.

unlabelledView post →there's maybe 1-2 good things in there, like Arliss Howard, or the joke about Mervyn LeRoy's name, but it mostly reminded me that we're never going to get a proper tribute to this era of Hollywood. (the Sternberg scene is a disgrace.) although STAN & OLLIE comes close. that's a nice film.

unlabelledView post →Wouldn't she have been a riot in a Preston Sturges movie in the early '40s? Or, sparring with Stan & Ollie & Groucho in the '30s? Tina Fey & Lisa Kudrow would have shone in those earlier vintages also. We know Diane Keaton would have too... because of gems like 'Love & Death'.

unlabelledView post →Speaking of John C. Reilly, I really liked him and Steve Coogan playing an aging Laurel & Hardy in the film "Stan & Ollie" (2018). I was raised on the slapstick comedy duo as a kid and it was fun to see their portrayal of these film icons and the people behind the screen.
unlabelledView post →What a lovely review. I've loved Laurel and Hardy since childhood, and have most of their films on DVD. Their comedy was so funny, but also very clean (so clean, in fact, that two men sharing the same bed never so much as raised an eyebrow. The Stan & Ollie film was a lovely, moving tribute.

unlabelledView post →As a kid, i always shied away from the sort of "slapstick" humour of Laurel and Hardy, so I knew little about them. This little retrospective proved to be an enjoyable traipse throughout their last few professional years, down on their luck, working for a somewhat unscrupulous Bernard (later Lord) Delfont from small, provincial, music halls in Britain. John C. Reilly does an excellent job conveying the frailties of Oliver Hardy. Steve Coogan is less convincing - he seems to resort more to…

unlabelledView post →This movie tells a simple story beautifully about two complex men at the end of their careers. I think I disagree with some people in believing that Stan & Ollie benefits from narrowing the plot. Showing their career together at their pear would show what they were as a team and what they did together, but this angle illustrates who they are. It sweats the details. Coogan and Reilly are very convincing in their roles. They still have ambitions that fuel an attempt at a comeback, but their…
