The Skulls

This Spanish language film was produced simultaneously with the filming of the two English language Laurel and Hardy shorts Be Big! and Laughing Gravy. The two shorts were edited together into one continuous film. Laurel and Hardy read their lines from cue cards on which Spanish was written phonetically. At the time of early talkies, dubbing was not yet perfected.

This was the Spanish-language experimental re-working of two Laurel and Hardy comedic shorts, 'Be Big!' and 'Laughing Gravy'. From the excellent 'Laurel and Hardy: The Essential Collection: The Sound Films from the Hal Roach Studios', which has 58 of them on 10 DVDs.
