Re: Becoming Mr. Laurel
that particular film makes me sad beyond belief and quite depressed to the point that I am only able to revisit it every 20 years or so. Hey Gary, don't be hatin' on ATOLL K... when's your next visit due? ;) Below is a snippet of interview between Laurel and a French interviewer for L'Ecran Francai...

Re: Becoming Mr. Laurel
Unlike the majority of you folks on this site I am not a researcher. I can only observe everything I watch and try to put it all in some reasonable sense of history. Thanks for confirming the 'Karno training' aspect, Richard. I don't like making blanket statements about things that I feel are right...

Re: Becoming Mr. Laurel
Nice essay Gary, thanks for posting it, and a couple of comments. Since the semi-mystery Stan Laurel short MIXED NUTS may indeed (and I, Rob Stone, and a few others think it is) be at least partially made up of Laurel's first film NUTS IN MAY, we can actually see what his first appearance on film lo...

Re: OT: If You Ever Attended a Slapsticon in Arlington VA
Thanks Rob, I needed to watch that video again today. I took a temp job that required WAY more hours than a mother of 4 with a hubby who is never home and frequently out of town on business shoudl have taken. I kept my girls in a dance class 50 miles away, was in the band for their school play, and...

Re: "Boom in the Moon" soundtrack
I wouldn't say that necessarily, I like JITTERBUGS, THE BIG NOISE and THE BULLFIGHTERS as well. I would! :) If Stan and Babe looked healthier, even as well as they look in the 1947 newsreel footage, and performed the material in ATOLL's first 40 minutes with the same enthusiasm they manage to bring...

Re: Atoll K ephemera, detritus and what-not
Yeah, it's strange that I started off with UTOPIA, but then again, Laurel & Hardy were on AMC every week back then so any bad taste left over from UTOPIA quickly subsided after watching ANOTHER FINE MESS. The cheapo VHS copy of UTOPIA heralded it as their last film, so Stan's appearance may not...

Re: Locomotives and Comedy
I ran across this comedy compilation (set to Glenn Miller's Chattanooga Choo Choo) on YouTube. Deftly handled. The editor didn't miss a trick: Enjoy! -- Paul E. Gierucki And I'll blow his cover and say that that was put together by silentcomedymafia's own and fellow Silent Comedians.com exile Gary ...
