Laurel & Hardy

[Brian Rose]

I hadn't thought to check YT. As the copyright is probably expired, I'm not surprised to see several postings of the film. This one is closer to what TCM showed- the aspect ratio was not expanded to met current screen standards.

<Edit> And then there's this version. Dialogue dubbed in German and much more German flavored music. My forty + year old High School German could sort of keep up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uPvOoSxCXw

I had originally looked at your reply on an Ipad. The photos you'd attached didn't shown up there. Having watched it a couple more times, one begins to the continuity errors. While Phillip is being examined after getting off the boat, his cap badge moves from above his left eye to the center of his forehead to much closer to his left ear. All before the bonnet gets removed.

YT being YT, it began to show me clips from Bonnie Scotland. I'd never heard of that one either. The first clips shown ( and a couple others) were taken from an edition dubbed in German. A Highland regiment sergeant issuing orders in German. Then again it is a comedy. Having seen the clips, I'll have to obtain a copy.
