在这部劳来与哈代喜剧/家庭片中,劳拉与哈代是世界喜剧电影史上最出名的二人组合，曾从师于喜剧之王卓别林，是好莱坞颇富声望的喜剧演员。他们演出了一系列著名的默片喜剧，这是其中之一的代表作。
从1927年起，劳拉与哈代联合演出，拍了50多部喜剧短片，1932年他们的影片《音乐盒》获第5届奥斯卡最佳喜剧短片金像奖。 1960年劳拉凭着他对喜剧电影领域的开创贡献而荣获第33届奥斯卡荣誉奖。 直到今天，迪斯尼动画片中的许多搞笑片断都是对其喜剧电影的模仿，因此，我们可以自豪地说――是他们，将世界喜剧电影推向了一个崭新的里程！
A compilation of primarly Laurel and Hardy shorts---From Soup to Nuts, Wrong Again, Putting the Pants on Philip, The Finishing Touch, Sugar Daddies and short clips from others---plus Max Davidson's Call of the Cuckoo and Dumb Daddies, with some cross-over Charley Chase footage, which, along with Robert Youngson's previous "The Golden Age of Comedy", "When Comedy Was King", "Days of Thrills and Laughter", led to a renewed interest in and a revival of television showings of Laurel and Hardy shorts. The cast was billed in order of their appearance: Oliver Hardy, Stan Laurel, Vivien Oakland (with a Vivian typo), Glen Tyron, Edna Murphy, Anita Garvin, Tiny Sanford, Jimmy Finlayson, Charlie Chase, Viola Richard, Max Davidson, Del Henderson, Josephine Crowell, Anders Randolf (as Anders Randolph), Edgar Kennedy, Dorothy Coburn, Lillian Elliott and "Spec" O'Donnell.
