- TriviaThis entire movie was re-worked into a smaller timescale eleven years later in the first part of A Chump at Oxford (1940), with Stan & Ollie posing as maid & butler. Also, Anita Garvin re-prised her role in that movie as the host, and adopted the name "Mrs. Vandervere" as her character name. This is the real-life name of one of the party guests seen in THIS movie.
- Alternate versionsThere is also a colorized version.
- ConnectionsEdited into Laurel and Hardy's Laughing 20's (1965)
Featured review
From Soup to Nuts
This Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy silent short suffers from too many repeated sight gags in its 20 minutes running time.
They are hired at the last minutes as waiters for a swanky dinner party.
Only for Stan and Ollie are not good enough waiters. Ollie manages to repeatedly slip up with a giant cream cake.
Stan has no idea what a salad without dressing is.
It is notable to see Laurel and Hardy in their silent days. Gauge how their slapstick developed in later years when the talkies arrived.
