see laurel without hardy in a film seem strange and yet it entertain all the same . it a well do parody of what become a classic silent film and it showcases stan talent very well . while his picture with oliver hardy be great and these early solo effort give you an idea of how skilled he be at his craft and how great he might have be have he continue in the tradition of keaton and chaplin a an individual star on his own . the dance sequence with his real life wife in the café scene be the best part of the picture and and have some pretty funny bit to go with laurel excellent dance step . and the bullfight climax be a gem and a even the bull take a pratfall . and i like the irony in the scene where he bury in hat and come up wear his familiar laurel and hardy bowler hat . as much a i love the laurel and hardy team and feel that there be never a funny comedy duo on screen during their prime and it nice to see them on their own once in a while ( check out the fight kentuckian that hardy make with the duke a another fine example . ) dale roloff .
