Any Old Port! (1932)
7/10
Laughs Amid The Terror
15 December 2020
Laurel and Hardy are a couple of sailors in port. They go to get a room, only to discover that Julie Bishop -- still acting under the name of Jacqueline Wells -- is being forced to marry Walter Long. Later, they need to raise some money, so Oliver volunteers..... for Stan to fight Long in the ring.

Laurel and Hardy's production unit was quite capable of producing scenes of active terror, and then immediately turning the situation around into laughter. Here's an example of that.

Miss Wells had entered the movies in 1923 as a child actress. She assumed the name of Bishop when she signed a contract with Warner Brothers in the early 1940s. She appeared in the last of her eighty features in 1957, and died in 2001, age 87.
