Nice movie because the people don't take the boy seriously at first, and then his lawyer either. The lawyer does a lot of pro bono work just because, and the story progresses well from there.

I can't say there is anything memorable about this film, I got it and watched it about two weeks ago. Now when this request to give a review about the film comes to my email - I don't remember anything about the film, therefore the film did not make a big impression on me that I wanted to remember it.

Ready for some Laurel and Hardy fun?

Digitally remastered superior picture & sound quality, special features.
Starring Oliver Hardy, Stan Laurel, Suzy Delair, Max Elloy, and Adriano Rimoldi
Directed by Leo Joannon

This is Laurel & Hardy's last effort. In this story our heroes travel to a newly inherited island which, unbeknownst to them, is rich with uranium. A quick election is held in which Ollie is declared President, but there is little he can do when people rush to this island Utopia to steal its riches.

Very funny and involved story!
