Classic Friday : Way Out West (1937) 9/10

Starring : Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, James Finlayson
Director : James W Horne
Running Time : 63 mins

Stan (Laurel) and Ollie (Hardy) travel out west to deliver the deeds to a valuable mine as part of an inheritance, but are tricked out of the deed by dodgy bar keeper Mickey Finn (Finlayson) who plans on keeping the mine for himself.

This is most definitely Laurel and Hardy's most famous and well loved movie, filled with some great musical numbers and some clever set pieces that give the duo the opportunity for some very clever and well thought through moments of mirth. Featuring some of the most famous moments, such as Stan's changing pitch in voice whilst singing The Trail Of The Lonesome Pine, and Stan and Ollie's dancing scene outside the bar, this is a movie that can be enjoyed again and again.
