Original Description:
HABEAS CORPUS (Hal Roach, 1928) Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy in one of their best-remembered silent comedies. Scientist Richard Carle hires Stan and Ollie to go to a graveyard — immediately — and bring back a body for his latest experiment. Easier said than done, as our heroes soon find out. Undercover detective Charles Rogers trails them and tries to scare them away, but are Stan and Ollie frightened? What do you think? The smallest disturba...nces become giant menaces in these spooky surroundings, and when the corpse (impersonated by Rogers) shows alarming signs of life, Stan and Ollie run for it! Running time: 21 minutes.  Original, vintage-1928 Hal Roach intertitles have been restored, unlike older prints that use Blackhawk’s own, remade title cards. Blackhawk Films offered many silents with orchestra scores in the 1970s, but tended to use the same overly familiar tunes for different subjects. This was the last Laurel & Hardy silent subject to receive a score, so there are very few sound prints of HABEAS CORPUS in circulation. The orchestra score is completely new and original, with a very effective variety of stock-comedy and stock-thriller themes. This print was issued by Blackhawk’s successor, Film Preservation Associates, and thus is much newer and fresher than most L & H silent prints on the market. Film Preservation Associates original (1991 Eastman) in as-new condition: no scratches, one lab splice between the main titles fading out and the action fading in (lab splices were common in lab-new FPA prints). See the screen shots for sample frames. IMPORTANT! PRICE INCLUDES SHIPPING IN THE UNITED STATES. Sorry,  we respectfully decline any international offers. We’ve had too much trouble with slow shipments and people asking us to falsify customs declarations, so no international bidders, please. We accept PayPal (www.paypal.com) for those who prefer an online payment service.
