Stan & Ollie,and Danny Kaye are such "pros" that you'll notice they can't resist doing "bits" even for newsreel cameras! Re. the other comments, I can only tell you that Stan Laurel told me (understand,I was all of 10) that "Babe", liked golf, the horses, etc."after-hours" and he(Stan) liked to stay at the studio,doing the cutting,gags and so-forth on the pix! Chaplin was supposedly "not amused" by Groucho's antics, but I love Groucho's shot, "How are you without a racquet?" Pricless clips! R.J.

The irony of the "hitler mustache" before it was ever called that. It was said that Hitler actually modeled his look after Chaplin.

Yes, L&H were under separate contracts, but were paid very well for their work -- Stan the most, as he also wrote, directed, edited, etc. Read Richard Lewis Ward's 2005 book "A History of the Hal Roach Studios," other books on the team or listen to the surviving audio iterviews with Stan from 1957, etc. L&H's best, most profitable and happiest years were with Roach, as Laurel admitted over and over in later interviews.

Not true- Hal Roche kept them on seperete contracts making sure one was always under contract so the other one would have no choice but to resign on.
