This fantastic classical movie is one of the funniest movies I had ever seen! Although the storyline was not the clearest at first, it improved and there was not a moment I wasn’t feeling anything but joy.

Laurel and Hardy are good friends who live next door to each other. Laurel being slightly dumber yet slimmer than Hardy making a good comedy combined act. The two get on well and their wives do as well, yet get into each other’s ways sometimes.

Briefly this is about the pair both in a ‘fraternal lodge’ who has made an oath to go to an annual convention in Chicago yet they have problems with the that…

This movie Sons of the Desert is a 1933 American film starring Laurel and Hardy and the director William A Sieter. The hit movie was first released in the United States on December 29, 1933 and is remembered to be one of the best movies of Laurel and Hardy.

Overall the movie has a humorous ending and the moral is very clear yet with a slight twist!So why not see it? Don't you want your questions answered?
