[yonderghostshistories]

I've recently watched "Stan and Ollie" (2018), aka the Laurel and Hardy biopic. Tbh, the only reason I watched the film was because (sexy) Rufus Jones (my beloved) was in the film as Bernard Delfonte, and also before I watched it I had very limited knowledge on and was only *slightly* aware of Laurel and Hardy's history.

HOWEVER, after watching it, I can definitely say that I....LOVED IT!! It was quite beautiful too, like I literally cried my eyes out at the ending 😭😭!

All the performances were really nice, especially Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly as Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy respectively, and I really enjoyed their chemistry together!! Also, I loved Nina Arianda as Ida Laurel (Stan's wife) and Shirley Henderson as Lucille Hardy (Ollie's wife) respectively too, cuz not only do I love me supportive wives in biopics, plus they were really great too!!

And, ofc, Rufus Jones was GREATLY AMAZING as Mr Bernard Delfonte, I very much enjoyed his scenes!!

Anyway, uhh, I do recommend this film to anyone interested in the Laurel and Hardy lore, it's pretty lovely and warm and nice!! Plus, it's now wanna make me dig into more of the Laurel and Hardy history too, so uhh thanks film!

STAN & OLLIE (2018)

"I fucks with L & H because as a kid I'd go out to Arizona to visit Grandpa Abe and he'd borrow all these crusty VHS tapes from a neighbor and we'd watch that shit all week and lol. Yo if they didnt get these guys to play them, would they have found anyone else? Like, who's the next best choices for dopplegang ability but would also get boomers to buy tickets or rent this flick? These bros ate. High-key doppled that shit deadass. Was surprised to learn that the mean guy was actually the one you'd want to hang with and the dumb one was the hard working brains of the act. Kinda like the Gazelles? Nah, we both dumb and have no fans" -Sonny Gazelle

STAN & OLLIE (2018) Grade: C+ 

Nice story. Doesn't get very dramatic but tells a good piece of history with some light comedy.

John is always to the left of the image and Steve always to the right when they appear together, just something that I noticed.
