An excellent short film by Laurel and Hardy in which Stan visits Ollie, who happens to have a broken leg, and ends up destroying the hospital in the process. Clearly in the boys' peak period. A plus is Billy Gilbert, who was always one of their best villains, and a minus is obvious back projection, due to producer Hal Roach's financial instability at the time.

Their task is complicated by a sassy nursemaid and, unbeknownst to them, the impatient Prof. von Schwarzenhoffen himself. But the biggest problem is the force of gravity, which repeatedly pulls the piano back down to the bottom of the stairs.More...
