Laurel and Hardy's Laughing 20's is an interesting compilation, really. Directed by Robert Youngson, it stitches together various shorts featuring the timeless duo along with other comedic talents of the era. You get a sense of the playful chaos that defined their work, like in 'From Soup to Nuts' and 'Wrong Again.' The pacing ebbs and flows, typical of many compilations, but it holds together well enough. The mix of practical effects and physical comedy feels so genuine, and you can see how these bits influenced later comedians. Plus, the inclusion of Max Davidson's short clips adds a nice layer, showcasing a broader comedic landscape of the 20s. It's a decent snapshot of the era's humor, even if it doesn't quite capture the full essence of Laurel and Hardy's genius.
