Block-Heads

US (1938): Comedy

It's 1938, but Stan Laurel doesn't know the war is over; he's still patrolling the trenches in France, and shoots down a French aviator. Oliver Hardy sees his old chum's picture in the paper and goes to visit Stan at the Soldier's Home. Thinking Stan is disabled (it's just that he's sitting on his leg), Oliver takes pity on him and takes him home for a nice home-cooked meal. But Oliver's wife (Minna Gombell) has other ideas and leaves him to fend for himself. After blowing up the kitchen, Oliver is helped by his next-door neighbor, Mrs. Gilbert (Patricia Ellis)... until the big-game hunting Mr. Gilbert (Billy Gilbert) comes home unexpectedly, carrying a shotgun.
