520    In this book, Simon Louvish traces the early lives of 
       Stanley Jefferson and Norvell Hardy and the surrounding 
       minstrel and variety theater, which influenced all of 
       their later work. Louvish examines the rarely seen solo 
       films of both our heroes, prior to their serendipitous 
       pairing in 1927, in the long-lost short Duck Soup. The 
       inspired casting teamed them until their last days. Both 
       often married, they found balancing their personal and 
       professional lives a nearly impossible feat. Between 1927 
       and 1938, they were able to successfully bridge the gap 
       between silent and sound films, which tripped up most of 
       their prominent colleagues. Their Hal Roach and MGM films 
       were brilliant, but their move in 1941 to Twentieth 
       Century Fox proved disastrous, with the nine films made 
       there ranking as some of the most embarrassing moments of 
       cinematic history. In spite of this, Laurel and Hardy 
       survived as exemplars of lasting genius, and their 
       influence is seen to this day. The clowns were elusive 
       behind their masks, but now Simon Louvish can finally 
       reveal their full and complex humanity, and their 
       passionate devotion to their art. In Stan and Ollie, 
       Louvish has seamlessly woven tireless and thorough 
       research into an authoritative biography of these two 
       important and influential Hollywood pioneers.
