Darling dancing!
I love Laurel & Hardy movies. They're so darling! In The Dancing Masters, they're roommates and partners who own a dance studio. Ollie likes ogling the girls in his hula dance class, and Stannie dresses in drag as he teaches his ballet class. It's very funny, and all their classic gags are alive and well in this movie: the eye rolling, looking in the camera, crying and scratching his head. The pair is a tad older, but just as lovable as ever. They're the perfect blend of absurdity and relatability, making any one of their movies a perfect afternoon treat.
If you rent this charming comedy, be on the lookout for a very young Robert Mitchum. He's part of a gang who sells "protection" to different businesses, and while he only has two scenes in the movie, it's very cute to see him in his early days.
DLM Warning: If you suffer from vertigo or dizzy spells, like my mom does, this movie might not be your friend. There's a scene towards the end where Ollie goes on a rollercoaster and the camera loops up and down the tracks, and it will make you sick. In other words, "Don't Look, Mom!"
