The History of Laurel and Hardy

The comedy duo of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were among the most popular acts in cinema history.

Laurel and Hardy both briefly worked together in 1921. After they appeared separately in several short films for the Hal Roach Studio during the 1920s, they began to appear in movie shorts together in 1926. Laurel and Hardy officially became a comedy team in 1927.

Between 1927 and 1940, they starred in 62 short films and 13 feature fill length films (not counting numerous cameo roles in others' films)

Among their most popular and successful films were the features Sons of the Desert (1933), Way Out West (1937), and Block-Heads (1938); and the shorts Hog Wild (1930), Helpmates (1932), and their Academy Award-winning short, The Music Box (1932).

The team left the Roach Studio in 1940. They appeared in 8 low-budget comedies for 20th Century Fox and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer until 1944, when they retired from films to concentrate on their stage show.

They made their last film, Atoll K, in France in 1950 and 1951 before retiring from the screen.
