This isn't my favourite Laurel and Hardy film of all time but it's certainly not below zero! As with all films from the boys, it has many wonderfully hilarious moments that will have anyone in stitches. I love Stan's never ending wallet, and his huge tummy after drinking all the water. No other buskers would dream of playing "In The Good Old Summertime" in that amount of snow! At times the film feels a little too slow, and the fact that the sound hasn't survived very well after all these years makes it uneasy to watch at times. The comedy outshines it's weaknesses though. Even if it's not their best, it's still better than most other films. I'd much rather watch Laurel and Hardy than anything else!

Playing -In the Good Old Summertime- instantly reminded me of Grumpy Old Men opening with Heat Wave.
