Laurel & Hardy: Sons of the Desert (1933) Movie Summary

  • COMEDY
  • NR
  • 1933
  • FULL HD

Errant husbands trick their wives so they can secretly attend a fraternal order’s weekend convention in Chicago. Many believe this is the team’s best feature, both a critical success and one of the year’s top ten box office draws. The film has much subtlety and was meticulously plotted, but also exults in bone-crushing slapstick. Mr. Hardy winds up the target of endless pots, pans and kitchen crockery all hurled with unerring accuracy by his tyrannical wife, played by Mae Busch. A popular tune, HONOLULU BABY by studio music director Marvin Hatley, came out of this picture. During the 1970s and 1980s Hatley enjoyed playing his composition at gatherings of the “mystic” group designed to propagate the spirit and genius of Laurel & Hardy. This group was named, for the film aimed squarely at kidding all such fraternal organizations, and launched with the blessing of Stan Laurel himself: SONS OF THE DESERT. Directed by William A. Seiter. With Charley Chase as an obnoxious lodge member and Dorothy Christie as Mr. Laurel’s beautiful, guntoting wife.

Laurel & Hardy: Sons of the Desert Film Synopsis

Italiano
Per partecipare alla riunione annuale dell'associazione (massonica) "Sons of the Desert" di cui sono soci, i due amiconi fingono una malattia di Hardy che esige un soggiorno di cura a Honolulu, ma le loro mogli scoprono l'inganno. Per la compattezza narrativa e il sottile umorismo delle situazioni e dei personaggi che sostituisce la ricchezza delle gag comiche, è considerato il migliore dei lungometraggi della coppia su un tema tipico del loro cinema, l'evasione dal carcere più o meno dorato del matrimonio. Ebbe un successo così esteso che contribuì alla nascita di numerosi club di ammiratori, intitolati appunto "Sons of the Desert".

Deutsch
Da ihre Gattinnen ihnen den Besuch der Versammlung der "Wüstensöhne" in Chicago verbieten, gibt Oliver vor, aus Gesundheitsgründen eine Seereise nach Honolulu machen zu müssen, bei der ihn Stan begleiten soll. Während sich die beiden in Chicago vergnügen, erfahren ihre Ehefrauen Lottie und Chase vom Untergang des Honolulu-Dampfers. Ihre Trauer schlägt jedoch bald in Wut um, als sie im Fernsehen die Parade der "Wüstensöhne" mit den überaus lebendigen und munteren Teilnehmern Stan und Ollie sehen. Nichtsahnend kehren die "Wüstensöhne" als Honolulureisende zurück und sehen sich dem Zorn ihrer Frauen ausgesetzt.

Madame Hardy, ne supportant pas le bateau, doit laisser partir son mari avec son ami Stan...

De conventie van het mannenclubje in Chicago is een groot feest met muziek, dans en cocktails. Uitgedost met fezzen en parasolletjes gaan de Zonen der Woestijn de straat op voor een heuse optocht. Maar de jongens hadden er beter aan gedaan zich niet te laten filmen voor het bioscoopjournaal.

A Sivatag fiai nevű titkos társaság gyűlést tart Los Angelesben, ahol a szónok buzdítására a tagok megfogadják, hogy történjék bármi, senki sem fog hiányozni a következő, chicagói nagygyűlésről. Ám két főhősünk elé komoly akadályok tornyosulnak: a feleségeik. Pan mégis fölényeskedik: az ő utazásával nem lesz baj, hiszen otthon ő az úr. Így aztán ellentmondást nem tűrően egyezik bele, hogy Chicago helyett a hegyekbe kísérje kirándulni az asszonyt. Be kell hát vetni a legalapvetőbb férfitrükköt: Pan betegséget színlel és a kiérkező, beépített orvos a gyógyulás érdekében honolului utazást javasol. Most már szabad az út, csak az úticélon kell némileg módosítani, ami persze hőseinknek szintén nem megy zökkenőmentesen.

Is My Face Red? summary, synopsis, reviews
Is My Face Red?Comedy1932

If it's scandalous, sensational and hush-hush, New York columnist William Poster is the guy who lurks inside the speakeasies or slips beyond the backstage doors to find it. But after he breaks a story about an infamous politico's murder, the next time Poster's name appears in print may be in the obituaries. Ricardo Cortez portrays Poster in a snappy pre-Code tale that's one of many films supervised by David O. Selznick at RKO in the early 1930s. "It is a shrewd, witty and scathing portrait, and Mr. Cortez plays the part to the hilt," wrote critic Andre Sennwald. First-billed Helen Twelvetrees plays Poster's forgiving Broadway sweetie. Other notables include future Charlie Chan-series star Sidney Toler as the murderous speakeasy proprietor and Robert Armstrong as a rival columnist. Less than a year later, Armstrong would journey to Skull Island in executive producer Selznick's King Kong.

This lavish Shirley Temple starrer is set in New York, sometime in the 1850s. While lovable pickpocket "Professor" Eustace Appleby works the crowd, his talented granddaughter Dimples (Temple) dances for pennies. Dimples demands that Appleby stop his thieving ways, but every time he tries to follow the straight and narrow, he comes out the loser (most memorably when he's hoodwinked by a dapper con man played by John Carradine). While Dimples entertains at the home of society matron Mrs. Caroline Drew (Helen Westley), Appleby pilfers several valuable objects. This time he's caught with the goods, but Dimples gallantly takes the blame. Touched by this, Mrs. Drew adopts the little girl, enabling her to find success on the legitimate stage.
