The Hoose-Gow
A lighthearted slapstick comedy about two bumbling friends causing chaos in prison, built entirely on physical humor and their affectionate partnership.
Stan and Ollie arrive as new inmates at a prison after apparently taking part in a hold-up raid, a raid they tell a prison officer they were only watching. The usual mayhem ensues.
