author spent hundreds of hours poring over old newspapers, and art equal
amount of time in interviewing waitresses, taxi drivers, receptionists,
hoteliers, theatre managers, stage staff, and Laurels relatives. Journalists
who, in turn, interviewed Laurel and Hardy, and members of the public who
met them, all helped to complete the picture of this missing period In the
careers of the world's greatest comedy duo.
Hardly any
other film comedians have as yet been able to transfer their charisma from
the big screen to the world of photography the way Laurel and Hardy did.
Regardless of whether it is a carefully posed studio shot, a short-lived
press photo or a private snap, the magic of their comedy, their charm and
their personal warmth instantaneously capture the viewer.
Harry Hoppe, manager of the
Laurel and Hardy Archive in Dusseldorf, spent
many years lovingly collecting many wonderful photographs of these two comic
geniuses. 150 of the best are arranged here by subject with an accompanying
text. Together with detailed biographies and a complete filmography. Text
in English and German.
This
is an excellent book with a magnificent collection of trivia, reviews and
facts compiled by Willie McIntyre. It has 192 fully illustrated pages with
photographs . A GOOD READ!
