How can the Hal Roach Laurel & Hardy films be so good but the Hal Roach Charley Chase films be so lame?
Stan Laurel is why.
Stan Laurel was the creative force in the Laurel & Hardy team; he devised most of the situations and gags they so expertly presented in their films for Hal Roach.
None of that expertise is apparent in the contrived situations of a Charley Chase film. It's one unfunny altercation after another.
I do have a question, however. What is that thing on the front of the street car that Charley gets caught in? What is it for?
