2.0 out of 5 stars Re-issue of Solo Films from other DVDs!,
Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2005
NOTHING NEW HERE. Collectors of Laurel & Hardy Films on DVD will already have superior copies of these solo films from other DVD collections as indicated below.

A word about this DVD: UN-RESTORED!

Over all, this DVD is a vast improvement over Alpha/Gotham's volume 2 but not as good as their volume 1 (which isn't saying much). The first three shorts are from video masters but generally look fine, they do have some problems mentioned below. The non-short extras which make up the last three selections look like they are mastered from film.

One other problem: The 'Menu'. It only shows frame grabs from the shorts and you have to guess what the title of the short is.

Here is the title list:

SHORT KILTS (1924) - Stan Laurel & Jimmy Finlayson, mastered from video tape, watchable but superior copies are on the LOST FILMS OF L&H #5 and the KINO 'STAN LAUREL COLLECTION'.

SMITHY (1924) - Stan Laurel & Jimmy Finlayson - A decent video tape transfer. The picture is sharp with good contrast but scan lines are visible. If you have not seen this short you will be pleased. It is an example of what Stan was going to do later with Ollie in "THE FINISHING TOUCH" as he joins a construction crew building a house. While a few gags are repeated in that later L&H short, it would be nice to view them together and see Stan's progression in timing. Also available on the Passport 'LAUREL OR HARDY COLLECTION'.

ALONG CAME AUNTIE (1926) - Oliver Hardy - BEWARE! The picture in this video tape copy is HEAVILY CROPPED and window-boxed! Many title cards are unreadable due to missing words. A far superior copy is on the LOST FILMS OF LAUREL & HARDY #3 & KINO'S 'OLIVER HARDY COLLECTION'.

THE STOLEN JEWELS (1931) - L&H cameo - Nice 16mm film transfer but a superior copy is on the KINO 'FLYING DUECES (RESTORED)' DVD extras as well as several other DVDs.

HOME MOVIES - Stan's Daughter (The same home movies that are on the BRENTWOOD 'LAUREL & HARDY 14 FILMS' DVD).

THE TREE IN A TEST TUBE (1943) - only color footage of L&H - looks like a second generation copy, a superior copy is on the KINO 'FLYING DUECES (RESTORED)' DVD extras as well as several other DVDs.

4.0 out of 5 stars only 3 of 6 are Laurel OR Hardy movies
Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2013
though the back lists 6 movies included, only three are real movies. None of the movies are genuine Laurel AND Hardy movies, so don't expect the typical L&H movie. The last three "movies" are not even real movies. The Stolen Jools is just a silly bit of fun nonsense featuring almost every contract star of the Pathe fold in cameo appearances to make up the movie, fun, but hardly a L&H movie. "Home movies" is just that, a pretty boring series of children home movie shots with a couple scenes with L&H at their casualness. The third movie is a short boosting the war effort in regards to what products can be made with wood. interesting, but certainly not "L&H" Entertainment. These last three "movies" are also available on other sets so I have them in other L&H movie sets. I tell you this so as not to expects the expected.

However. this is still something of a must have for Silent movie buffs as it does include three silent movies featuring only one of either Laurel OR Hardy, as these movies were made before they became a team in 1927. The three movies are typical fun nonsense you would expect from these chaps and is worth it to get three; two movies from 1924 (Short Kilts & Smithy) and 1926 (Along Came Auntie). I wont spoil the movies by telling you what to expect. they are fun silent and will be enjoyed by the whole family.

One note by another reviewer might be important as he states all these three movies are in other sets. I've encountered this problem several times. you try and get all the movies of someone and they come in sets that include some but not others so you often in trying to complete a series end up with many duplicates; but these movies are fun enough to watch a few times anyway.
