Them Thar Hills
Stan and Ollie journey to the mountains for Ollie's health, parking their caravan by a well that moonshiners previously dumped their liquor into. Believing it to be iron-rich mountain water, the duo quench their thirst. The trouble begins when a married motoring couple stops to borrow gasoline; the irritable husband leaves his thirsty wife with the boys while he refills their car. A sequel to this film was TIT FOR TAT.

Some genius comedic bits here, as on a much-needed vacation to soothe Ollie's nerves, the famed duo camp in the country and inadvertently get drunk on moonshine, thinking it's 'healthy mountain water'. They share its virtues with a beautiful woman and then have to deal with the crazily jealous husband. Highly recommended if and when you need a few really good laughs!

So poor old Ollie has gout! To help him recover, he and Stan retreat to a remote mountain shack where it transpires the local moonshiners have been hiding their produce in plain sight - in the well! Gradually the pair discover that they are rather partial to the local water. There is a fun sequence with Charlie Hall amongst some amiable antics, and though maybe we have seen a few of the scenarios elsewhere amongst this duo's output before, this is a tightly paced but simple and amusing twenty minute outing that I really quite enjoyed.
