37. Men O' War (1929) Part TWO with Glenn Mitchell

Rounding off our deep dive into the waters of Laurel and Hardy's classic short, Men O' War, Patrick is joined by film historian and author, Glenn Mitchell.

Discussions cover a range of subjects from the film's production to the film history of Hollenbeck Park, to other interesting tangents, such as the willingness to tackle dark and heavy themes in Laurel and Hardy comedies.
