Sepiatone there are some home movies of them & the families available online, i think youtube & OLLIE looked ultra ill by then, even shedding all his lbs he died at his mother in laws house of a stroke in '57 & they all say STAN LAUREL just basically shut down for the remaining 8yrs of his life Link to post Share on other sites

My mom & I went to it-(despite it only raking in about $4m.) & no Oscar nods??? & were actually very teary eyed at the finale I got to tape quite a few of them too back in the mid to late '80's from NICK AT NIGHT & L. Maltin produced them for air, some were computer colorized though Link to post Share on other sites

My mom & I went to it-(despite it only raking in about $4m.) & no Oscar nods??? I can understand your disappointment. I thought JOHN C. REILLY and the make-up team deserved lots of special credit. I've seen plenty of Laurel and Hardy impersonators over the years, but STEVE COOGAN and Reilly were by far miles above all the others. Sepiatone 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I think that is because it went far beyond mere impersonation. I'm usually thrown off for a moment by people impersonating iconic figures but if they manage to put some personality into it like those two did, then that is a winning formula. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
