@Lorcanproductions

If you google it it was made in 1931

I have the DVD with Be Big + Lucky Dog[L&H's first appearence in the same film] and lucky dog was made in 1917 before they were a Duo, lucky dog was where they first met and became friends

In them days - when Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy made 'Be Big' - America and the world had reached rock bottom !

It was the big depression and life was very hard and very tough. Millions of unemployed people in USA alone. It was the time of the big hobo camps of the unemployed, bitter, broken down Americans ... Gruesome times.

@Lorcanproductions All movies were still silent in 1917.The very first talkie was The Jazz Singer in 1927.Two years after that,the talkies took over the silent films permenantly.

@ExplorerDS6789 Yes,Sons Of The Desert is known as their best feature film(next to Way Out West).

the most beautiful thing,as with every sketch,is when oliver looks into the camera and has 'this' look on his face.........that really is priceless !!

Just for interest sake,Mrs.Hardy was played by Isabel Keith.Anita Garvin was Mrs.Laurel.

Anita Garvin was quite a common actress on the Roach lot.She also played the role of Mrs.Laurel in the L&H short "Blotto".Not a lot is known about Isabel Kieth.
