Fifteen silent shorts featuring the most influential and celebrated comedy duo of all time

Eureka Entertainment to release LAUREL & HARDY: THE SILENT YEARS (1927), fifteen silent shorts featuring Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy. Presented on Blu-ray from restorations sourced from the best available materials. Available from 19 August 2024 as part of The Masters of Cinema Series, the first print run of 2000 copies only will exclusively feature an O-card slipcase.

Standing tall alongside Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin as pioneers of cinematic comedy, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are two of the most beloved comedians in the history of moving pictures. Having acted alongside each other for the first time in 1921, they officially teamed up later in the decade in a series of shorts made for producer Hal Roach - launching a wildly successful partnership that would survive into the sound era and last for another quarter of a century.

This collection captures the duo's earliest (mis)adventures on screen, chronicling their journey from their first films together - The Lucky Dog and the aptly titled 45 Minutes to Hollywood - to the dawn of their official partnership in thirteen shorts produced throughout 1927. From Duck Soup and Sailors Beware! to Do Detectives Think?, Putting Pants on Philip and The Battle of the Century (once available only in incomplete versions until its missing scenes were rediscovered in 2015), these films show the development of two independent comedians into the most influential and celebrated comedy duo of all time.
