I love Laurel and Hardy movies. I have fond memories of watching them on Super 8 mm movies while growing up. I grew up in a branch of Exclusive Brethren (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exclusive_Brethren for more detail) and we were not allowed to have TV. But we often rented movies in Super8 mm format from local libraries to watch over weekends. This was pre video (VHS) or DVD days of course. Some of our longtime favorites, ones we watched many times, were Laurel and Hardy movies including “Way Out West,” “The Laurel and Hardy Murder Mystery,” and “The Bohemian Girl.”

So it was with a lot of excitement that I stumbled across Laurel and Hardy movies on Google Video (video.google.com/) yesterday, including one of my all-time favorites, “Babes in Toyland.” These are available in their entirety for viewing over the Internet for free. I decided to add a link in the sidebar (under the Funny Videos section) to some of them. Have a look if you’re interested!
