Trending Position
An excellent short film by Laurel and Hardy in which Stan visits Ollie, who happens to have a broken leg, and ends up destroying the hospital in the process. Clearly in the boys' peak period. A plus is Billy Gilbert, who was always one of their best villains, and a minus is obvious back projection, ... due to producer Hal Roach's financial instability at the time.
