Laurel & Hardy - Bogus Bandits
AUD
20.99
A$20.99
Ollie and Stan play Olio and Stanio, a pair of incompetent bandits who are hired as menservants to Fra Diavolo (The Devil's Brother), a real bandit played by Dennis King who, in his other guise, is known as the Marquis de San Marco - an aristocrat who uses his position to discover the whereabouts of the treasures worn by the ladies in high society.
This film set a popular style which was subsequently seen in such films as 'Zorro', 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' and countless others. It has a pattern which was followed in 'Babes in Toyland' (1934) and 'The Bohemian Girl' (1936), and contains some superb sequences. The story was well chosen by Hal Roach as a good vehicles for Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy although it is not one of their major performances; the music can sometimes interfere with the Laurel and Hardy humour but the drinking scene confirms their combined genius and is outstanding. Originally called 'Fra Diavolo', this film is based on the 1830 comic operatta of that name by Daniel F Auber. The film was subsequently called 'The Devil's Brother', 'Bogus Bandits' and 'Virtuous Tramps'.
