Still from the French language re-filming of THE LAUREL-HARDY MURDER CASE (1930) entitled FEU MON ONCLE, which unfortunately remains a lost film. Pictured with Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy are, from left to right, perennial policeman Tiny Sandford; an unidentified native speaker brought in to play Fred Kelsey’s key role as the archetypal bungling police detective; Jack Clifford; and partially hidden, behind Laurel, is Stan Blystone. His brother, John, would later direct SWISS MISS and BLOCK-HEADS, having previously helmed the Buster Keaton classic, OUR HOSPITALITY.
