Laurel & Hardy - The Tree In A Test Tube

Seizoen: 18 - Aflevering: 2 / 97 - Eerst uitgezonden: 17 april 1943 - Episode ID: 157249

To Pete Smith's voice over commentary, Stan and Ollie-seemingly picked at random in the street, and professing to not have any wood in their possession at the time, produce various props - the contents of a suitcase and their wallets - all manufactured from wood, or containing wood byproducts such as cellulose.(at one point Ollie indicates that Stan's head is made of wood !) The props demonstrate the omnipresence of wood in the American economy. The Tree in a Test Tube is L&H's only known surviving color film, shot in Kodachrome on 16mm, and is basically World War II propaganda. The Rogue Song (1930), made in Technicolor and featuring the duo in their only other known color footage, is now considered a lost film, although a number of fragments have survived. Their routine lasts around five minutes and was shot silent (their voices are not heard). The second half of the film is unrelated documentary film footage. Laurel and Hardy shot this brief film during their lunch hour on the back lot of Twentieth Century-Fox.
