THE LAUREL-HARDY MURDER CASE (1930). Director: James Parrott.
-- "He fell through a trapdoor and died."
-- "He fell through a trapdoor and died."
-- "Was he building a house?
-- "No. They were hanging him."
In this short the boys go the home of Uncle Ebenezer Laurel for the reading of his will, only to learn that he was murdered and all of the suspects have been gathered in his creepy old house. There are sinister relatives and possibly a ghost -- or at least something flying about in a sheet. Every Laurel and Hardy feature or featurette has some laughs in it, and this is no exception, but it's also kind of slow and until the end rather uneventful. Not one of their best.
Watch A-Haunting We Will Go or Hold That Ghost with Abbott and Costello instead. **.

I can't say much about this movie and the murder case. Whatever information I got is through this post. I want all of you to share your reviews with us only then I'll be able to decide whether to watch it or not. Thanks for your post.
