Fair Catch! He raised his arm and declared "fair catch" to field the punted diary from his girlfriend. The mob stopped and held up until he caught the punted diary and then mobbed him. I almost busted a gut. This ain't high brow stuff, just plain funny. Thanks for posting. As an old time Little Rascal and Laurel & Hardy fan, I love this stuff.

This IS quite a silly,funny,nearly slapstick type of comedy! At times it's hard to" believe" what is happening in the film,however,once a person becomes" taken" by the film,it's easier to enjoy! Thanks,PizzaFlix,for sharing this quite " unusual" movie!

Originally released (in Cinecolor) in March 1948. This was the last of the "Dodo & Ames" comedies he produced. Hal Roach Jr. revived them for two films- in 1951 {"As You Were"} and 1952 {"Mr. Walkie Talkie"}.

I've noticed that when you have decent movies from back then when gals were decently dressed and pretty, it never fails - modern day guys have to make "certain" comments and what they would do to these gals. Pathetic!!

Interesting - I never heard of this film, but knew of Hal Roach comedies. I gave this one a chance, and at about 9:30, after the office hazing and Doubleday gets on the elevator, HaHa, I was laughing OUT LOUD that whole scene! It was played really well, especially by the others in the elevator, and the black elevator operator! Really funny.

Thanks so much for posting. Roach was struggling to keep his studio afloat in the new post war economy. He had sold Our Gang and Laurel and Hardy to MGM. He was try to sell features and hour long films to accompany features. Here we have an example of bad writing, so-so acting, mis casting.... Years later Roach realized that he had made a mistake. He could have kept his studio out of hock if he had made well done one hour films with name actors. That would have worked for a decade or so. Then the film business because all features, no accompanying films. By then Roach would have been too old to work anyway.

Thanks Barry. I'm always seeking the best prints. I will go back to our archive and see if we have a color print. 2 strip Cinecolor doesn't hold up well over time, some prints are so faded that it is sometime best to go B&W. PFG

Well, Roach didn't exactly "sell" Laurel & Hardy; he and Stan parted company after "Block-Heads", and Hardy remained with the studio to film "Zenobia". Then, he brought them together again for two more pictures, and both left the Roach studio towards the end of 1940. If you're talking about their two and three-reelers MGM originally distributed (with his "Our Gang" shorts), yes. Roach reacquired them in 1948, and made some good money reissuing them theatrically, and on television.

This was the last of the Tracy & Sawyer features Roach produced. In 1951, Hal Roach Jr. resurrected them for two more service comedies, "As You Were" and "Mr. Walkie Talkie".
