Should Married Men Go Home? (1928)
Country: US
Technical: bw 20m silent
Director: Leo McCarey, James Parrott
Cast: Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, Edgar Kennedy
Synopsis:
Stan drags a reluctant Ollie away from his Missus to go golfing, but unfortunately it is 'fours only' day. Luckily they find a pair of equally unattached females, whom they must first treat at the soda fountain for only fifteen cents. Once on the course they run into an inexplicably solo Edgar Kennedy (with rug) and all ends unhappily in a mud slinging altercation.
Review:
Routine two-reeler in which, though they are still very much separate entities, the characters of Stan and Ollie begin to assume their classic roles, including a drink buying routine crying out for sound. There is evidence of the speed at which some of these things were shot, with a poorly framed reverse follow shot and a pay-off shot at the end with a continuity bloomer.
