"On the Loose (1931) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Zasu Pitts and Thelma Todd are tired of all their dates taking them to Coney Island. They finally meet a couple gentlemen who they think highly of but the surprise date turns out to be another trip to Coney Island. Pitts and Todd really don't bring too much to this film but things pick up once they arrive at Coney Island. The biggest laugh comes from the cameo by Laurel and Hardy. Along Came Auntie (1926) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Screwball comedy has a woman wanting to inherit $100,000 from her aunt so she must pretend to be married to her first hus..."
💡 Did You Know?
A close examination shows that Stan and Ollie never share a scene with Thelma and Zasu. While there is some dialogue interaction and shots of Thelma throwing a vase which cuts to it landing near Ollie's head and a shot of the back of a blonde charging at them with another knickknack, it's a very brief shot. There's then a cut to a hallway with a shot of Stan and Ollie scrambling along then down a staircase as more junk is thrown at them. No one is seen doing the throwing. It would appear that Stan and Ollie shot their part when it was convenient for them and it was cut into the film later.
