Block-Heads
90 Minutes of Happiness and Hi-Jinks
Directed by John G. Blystone
Produced by Hal Roach Studios
A lighthearted slapstick comedy about two old friends reuniting, built on physical gags, mishaps, and the warmth of their bond despite domestic chaos.
It's 1938, but Stan doesn't know the war is over; he's still patrolling the trenches in France, and shoots down a French aviator. Oliver sees his old chum's picture in the paper and goes to visit Stan who has now been returned to the States and invites him back to his home.
