This short is from the last released Laurel and Hardy movie. It was actually originally filmed in 1928-1929 as a short, and later reworked into the 1939 feature film Block-Heads. Enjoy this classic slapstick from two of its masters!

Laurel and Hardy were a comedy double act during the early classical Hollywood era of American cinema. The team was composed of thin Englishman Stan Laurel (1890–1965) and heavyset American Oliver Hardy (1892–1957). They became well known during the late 1920s through the mid-1940s for their slapstick comedy. In this segment, they find themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere without any gas. As Ollie says, a wartime C-Card (a card reserved for people essential to the war effort) wouldn't be of any use.
