Brats (1930)

Written by CinemaSerf on June 6, 2022

It'll be 90 years old this year, and it's still quite an engaging watch. The slapstick nature of Stan and Ollie's humour hasn't really worn well over the years, but this still raises a smile. The grown ups just a want a quiet evening to play some draughts and some pool without being distracted by their mini-me children (Ollie is minus his moustache). Needless to say the kids are mischievous and when sent to bed, things only get worse as they wrestle with their hugely oversize props. The adults' attempt to sing them to sleep would strip paint! Good fun....
