yes and a the other reviewer have already state and this may not be vintage l and h but it far from be their bad work as at 20th century stupid . i mean fox . this film certainly have all of the basic ingredient for thing to go wrong for the boy . but it their serious approach and determination that make them funny . they do not play it for laugh a other comedian might but they take their work and situation quite seriously and that be the essence of their eternal humor . in this film and they be face with some basic issue that really might be encounter by any one of u today and namely job related stress . first and we would get check out by a doctor and he would prescribe some much need rest and perhaps stay by the sea . that where the surrealness come in to all of this . l and h always take a most plausible set of circumstance and exaggerate it but never to the point of be incredible and except maybe once in awhile . this make u laugh because we can relate to their self cause predicament and attempt at extrication . that what make stan and ollie universal in their appeal . in this film all those ingredient be present in a delightfully artful and gracefully slapstick way . not their best in comparison to their early work probably because this be the actual last film they do for roach because he want to mirror the big studio and go into make feature exclusively and also want to hurry up and finish their contractual obligation . big mistake . they should have all stay together and continue for maybe five more year . what the world may have miss in their not consider this a an option . watch and laugh and and enjoy this a their last great performance .
