The Live Ghost



The Boys watch as Mae Busch and Arthur Housman
are nabbed by Walter Long.


At a dollar a head, the Boys agree to shanghai a crew for Walter Long, captain of a reputed ghost ship.  Stan and Ollie wind up shanghaied themselves and have to face a vengeful crew and the "ghost."  Arthur Housman plays his usual superb drunk, Charlie Hall excels as one of the shanghaied sailors, and scrumptious Mae Busch plays a dockside floozy. (1934, 20 min., b/w, sound)


Double Whoopee


The Boys escort the lucious
Jean Harlow from the cab.


The Boys end up as footman and doorman at a posh hotel.  Guests fall into open shafts and lose their shirts, while Stan and Ollie have trouble openin doors, calling cabs, and maintaining their cool.  Cameo appearance by then-unknown Jean Harlow.  
(1929, 20 min., b/w, silent)
