More about the movie and our reaction to it:
This was a very funny and enjoyable movie. It was our introduction to Laurel and Hardy and a good one for that purpose.  The plot is quite simple, they've gone into business as a moving team and are hired to deliver a piano. The fun begins when we see where the house they're delivering to is located -- an endless flight of stairs going up a hill.

We laughed out loud throughout this memorable short film.
