A superb film. There obviously isn't much story other than to hang on a series of comedy set-pieces and slapstick stunts. But who cares, this is true genius.

Busy Bodies (1933)
A classic Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy comedy short with some of their most iconic and ambitious set pieces. Stan and Ollie are working as carpenters at a sawmill, obviously mayhem ensues and much destruction follows. This includes Ollie getting a brush glued to his chin, getting caught (and later catapulted out of) a vent and finally destroying the manager's office after falling off a ladder. Health and safety certainly is absent in the Laurel and Hardy universe!
