A journalist sits at his smeared desk, eats cheap beans from the can and writes the “Truth about John Lennon”. His client is a national tabloid daily paper. His source a young woman, who wants to cash in on a long forgotten affair. But she is unable to write her story alone and needs a ghostwriter, who’s now killing Lennon for the second time. A song by Latin Quarter.

British band Latin Quarter formed in 1983 and released six albums, the subject matter of their songs often expressing their strong political views. The title of this song "No rope as long as time" was a saying of black South Africans meaning no amount of oppression could halt their eventual freedom. The band reunited in 2011, twenty-one years after splitting up, and has since released two more albums.

Latin Quarter perform live at the Full House club in Hannover, Germany. The British band has a big fan base in Germany.

Latin Quarter is a British band formed in 1983. At this concert, filmed in Hannover, they play "Donovan's Doorway," an ode to the city of Liverpool.

In this clip, singer Laura Black performs a soulful rendition of an old song written by Country-music legend Johnny Cash.

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.

Traveling musicians Stan and Oliver think they really might be stranded, a stranger comes along with exactly the right thing to help.

Stan and Oliver get caught up in con — selling the “Little Wonder Gas Pill,” an answer to gas rationing.

The Little Wonder Gas Pills sell like hotcakes in Midvale but a customer's displeasure forces Stan, Oliver, and Mr. Wright to make a hasty getaway. There's also a stowaway in the trailer.

Chester Wright and Susan Cowan return to Midvale and pay a visit to the lawyer who was unwittingly caught up in the flimflam. Wright hatches a plan to right the wrong, a larcenous plan at that.

Wright's elaborate plan to get the money back from Corcoran, the swindler who cheated Susan's mother, is set into action. "Kale," "mazuma," "moola," "lettuce," and "hay" are some of the slang words for money that the characters use in this segment.

Dorcas feigns a fainting spell and lures Stan into her hotel room. She suggests they have a Sazerac, a New Orleans cocktail made with either rye whiskey or cognac, together with water, sugar, bitters and absinthe.

Oliver and Dorcas get acquainted in the hotel room while Stan hides under the furniture. Susan worries that Chester may double-cross her, and Chester does seem to be plotting something.

Mary Lou and Oliver dance about the hotel room and are interrupted by her husband.
