Laurel And Hardy Swiss Miss 1938.
American mousetrap salesmen Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy journey to
Switzerland, reasoning that where there's cheese, there's mice. When they
innocently try to pay their dinner bill with phony money, Stan and Ollie are
put to work in the kitchen of the Alpen Hotel. Their enforced stay coincides
with the visit of famed composer Walter Woolf King, who has come to
Switzerland to soak up "local colour." He also hopes to write an operetta
that will succeed on its own merits, without the lovely voice of his lovely
actress wife Della Lynd winning over the audience. But Lynd is determined to
star in King's latest opus, and to that end she finagles Stan and Ollie into
getting her a job as a hotel chambermaid. As the plot rolls along its merry
way, Ollie labours under the misapprehension that Lynd is in love with him.
Swiss Miss is, on the whole, one of Laurel and Hardy's weaker feature films,
with far too much emphasis on the romantic leads and way too many forgettable
songs ("Crick Crick Crick Here the Cricket" is a particular low point). But
the team's individual scenes save the show, even though Stan Laurel, who'd
been ill during production, looks like he's about to fall asleep at any
moment. Best bits: Stan hoodwinking a St. Bernard out of a cask of brandy;
Ollie serenading Lynd while Stan accompanies him on tube; and the legendary
sequence, immortalized by film critic James Agee, wherein Stan and Ollie try
to transport a piano across a rope bridge high above an alpine chasm--only
to confront a gorilla! One of the screenwriters of Swiss Miss was Jean
Negulesco, later the director of such memorable films as Mask of Dmitrios,
Three Strangers, Titanic and How to Marry a Millionaire.
