Laurel & Hardy's first "talkie"

- Well, technically, it's not talking... it's laughing. And it's not them laughing, but somebody else's voices. But this clip from their first sound-on-disc film, "We Faw Down", shows some imaginative early use of sound in a "silent" movie.
Laurel and Hardy ease out my tension whenever I watch them.Truly they are the immortal two of the world of comedy.
Even no talking, they still and will remain kings of comedy
Born to bring joy and happiness to people.......Laurel and Hardy 🎭
They are one of the few to make it to sound and stay.
True and many silent films actors/actresses became less popular when talkies started taking over, because their real voice didn't seem to match with how people had imagined their characters to sound like in the silent film era. Laurel and Hardy were perfect
Several of their last "silent" shorts were also distributed with "synchronized" music and sound effects, via the Victor "sound-on-disc" method. The first "all-talkie" short was "Unaccustomed As We Are" (1929).
SO WOT
@@eggbertinkabod1121 So what? It's the difference between accuracy and misrepresentation. The word "Talkie" means exactly that, synchronized dialogue. This would be more accurately referred to as a "sound film" much like Warner's DON JUAN. It too had synchronized music and sound effects but was NOT a "talkie." That was set afterward by THE JAZZ SINGER, which while a hybrid silent film with synchronized music and sound effects also had talking and singing sequences..
@@RayPointerChannel that's what the quotation marks in the title were for.
" The first "all-talkie" short was "Unaccustomed As We Are" (1929)."
And this was distributed as talkie and as silent with/without synchronized music, possibly also as talkie with sound on disc
Yes, there was a silent version {with more intertitles than usual} with a synchronized music track. I saw it on a VHS cassette years ago.....sound on disc.
I love stan and ollie
This is very funny. How much the sound disc contributes to the great comic build-up that Laurel was always known for.
Love Stan and Ollie ❤🤣❤
Unaccustomed as we Are was originally a silent movie, but was also made with limited sound versions. In 1929, there were only two other movies made that way; Men of War, and the Perfect Day. Years ago, in the 1980s, I only saw, just ONE time, the silent version of Men of War, and I liked it better than the talkie version. It was shown on TV, on channel 28.
The title was misleading but the clip was great. So funny. 😂
Sound, yes. “Talkie,” no. This is an example of what the industry referred to as “goat gland” pictures-films with music, sound effects and/or limited dialogue, as opposed to “all-talking.” MGM in particular was very cautious about sound, and tested the waters with films like this.
First talkie Unaccustomed as we Are. This may be the first "soundie".
part of the sound clip was reworked (different arrangement) in , I believe, "Berth Marks".. over the opening title cards...
Regardless of what it is, does anybody know what this particular episode is called? This doesn't look like the full thing, but it is very funny
Sound in this was put on later, when cinemas changed over to sound.
@@DavidJsmith-dk5tf Actually, this was how it was originally released to theatres, in 1928 when the industry was transitioning to sound.
@@SpicyHobbit03 when a video is only a couple of minutes long and there's no main title at the beginning, you can usually bet that it's not a complete film, but a clip from a longer original.
Just been watching
'the money that I gave to give to him..,...' & this ' talkie was next.
I'm only 60 but they're the best ever!! 😂🤣❤️
Was that the money that she gave to me and I gave to you to give to him?
L&H first talkies came out around '29. Titles were " Unaccustomed As We Are" and "Berth Marks "
MAGNIFICO
Unaccustomed As We Are is the first L & H film with sound in 1929..... They filmed it without sound first and then again when sound finally came
LAUREL AND HARDY FIRST TALKIE AND IS SILENT.
TH-cam won't load the video, while it plays another video properly, here I see all the time the loading animation.
Eu gosto dessa dupla de comediantes O GORDO E O MAGRO
"She is too fat" said Stan. It takes guts to say that to a woman.
And quite a bit of alcohol
No, it only takes guts if you are a sjw
Stupud, but magic innocence in conedy. Awesome 😅 How times change.
In many ways these 2 where the first talkie stars. They went from silent movies to talkies with ease, they were naturals. Other silent stars like Chaplin couldn't do it and for them it was the end, the end of an era.
Not Chaplin . He made one of his best films,CITY LIGHTS and then MODERN TIMES, and THE GREAT DICTATOR. His later films, outside of LIMELIGHT were a bust. He abandoned the tramp character for something more political and "timely" but it really wasn't.
Kaplan could have but he didn't because he considered the silent film in the art form
@@4bobbyt Harold Lloyd was the one who really suffered. His talkies were a disaster.
Except for MOVIE CRAZY and THE MILKY WAY.
Stan looks kinda cute here.
Je ne connaissais pas cette pépite 😄❤
1:41 well, thank you...
unaccustomed as we are is laurel and hardys first talkie 1929.
Yes, the first few in sound must have been recorded onto shellack , 78 rpm.
Very noisy, because of the weight of the play back arm. It needed to be heavy.
Sound improved later.
@@DavidJsmith-dk5tf actually the sound on disc soundtracks, although difficult to synchronize, had a wider range and provided far better sound than the sound on film processes at the same time.
Actually it does sound like Hardy's laugh.
Pincho Paxton it probably was their voices...after all why have someone record their voices.
Because Hal roach didn't have a recording studio yet?
hard boiled eggs and NUTS lol.
1:21 Stan is flipping "the bird".
I'm sure you meant 1:41.
You're right he isn't but he is using his middle finger so what?
I never see these!
the funniest part of this is that at the time alcohol was still illegal.
That's not a talkie!
No. But highly enjoyable with the mysterious "fake voices" that truly embellish Stan's patented knack for comic build-up
This is timeless cerebral comedy, whose gags are taken from life and which is why they will live through eternity.
COMEDIANT REAL FOREVER KING*********
in proibition
When the truth hurts most.
This is the 2nd L&H film to use Vitaphone discs. Habeas Corpus was the 1st and was released 28 days earlier
Grazie
Canta gigi d'alessio , quanti amori nascono così... sentite
too short
Year Please
the title is misleading people. this is not their first talkie
People are very "sloppy" and imprecise in their use of language today. It's even in mainstream media. Don't get me started on mispronounced words, or "made-up" words due to limited vocabularies.
People are sloppy at reading the statement below which clearly states: "Well, technically, it's not talking... it's laughing. And it's not them laughing, but somebody else's voices. But this clip from their first sound-on-disc film, "We Faw Down", shows some imaginative early use of sound in a "silent" movie."
Chris Seguin - was going to say that too, but you beat me to it! :)
This is nothing in terms of an accuracy in comparison to some of the videos and how their titled on TH-cam. The uploader really made an effort to be clear on this but there are a lot of different terms that were used then and a lot of different terms that are used now that confuse the assignment film with a synchronized soundtrack and sound effects, the park talking silent film with synchronized music and sound effect, the entire synchronized sound film, the sound on disc synchronized sound film, the optical sound film...
@@chrisseguin1495 that makes sense Chris. It's not a soundtrack on side of the film.. I don't know how they synchronized sound with film. It was like experimentation before they got the film synchronized with sound. It's got to be a lot of Hit and Miss efforts. I know we taking things for granted now but it was a learning experience for the early talkies. We got to appreciate that effort. Thanks for the video
She should have slap him for calling her fat. Stan needs to think before he talks. Wat l am saying it was a talkie dialogue.
So it's like Don Juan (1926). Sound effects but no actual dialog. Since dound-on-disc c as an't give exact lip sync.
What year did this movie come out? Thanks for posting.
Except for the blonde hair, Laurel's girlfriend reminds me of Helen Kane.
Creo que nuestra tv seria perfecta. Si dieran series así.antiguas.gustaria hasta de todas las edades.pero no hay manera .que hagan nada .bueno. por eso ya no la ponemos. Prefiero aburrirme fregando platos. A que me aburran estos. Aida.la que se avecina.repetitivas.son buenas series.pero cansan. Es como comer gazpacho todos los días.lo aborreces.😃🎇😃
*Who put voices and sound effects on this? This is supposed to be a silent film not a talkie.*
Hal Roach Studios did in 1928 as the industry was transitioning from silent to sound. This is the original soundtrack disc from the original release.
The sound probably would have been added much later. Many silent films were given a soundtrack years after they were first release. So this is not a sound film. Actually, the laughing ruins it.
This is how it was originally released to theatres under the supervision of Hal Roach Studios.
@@thescribefiles So it never came out as the usual silent film would have been ?
@@DavidJsmith-dk5tf It did come out as a usual silent, but was also released with sound-on-disc for cinemas equipped for sound.
Talkie my arse
What is the name of the music
That's my weakness now, Oh Katrina (I think) , Every little movement (from Madame Sherry)
When was it recorded??
2018
This definitely is not a "talkie"
كانوااا جمال جدآ ولطاف اوى 💞💞💞
31 people dropped on their heads as babies
As of September 2020, you can make that 92!
@@marcse7en make it 121
Why is this a “talkie”? Perhaps a “laughy” or “soundy”? Or we forgot what the verb “to talk” means? Let’s pay attention to the language we all agreed on.
Read what I wrote right under the video. I was paying very close attention to the language I was using. ;)
Original synchronized music and sound effects
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Well I laughed.
That would be called a Gigglie, click bait.
🎬🎥👏👍👌😸😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love the old slap stick, say that now a days (she is too fat) and you would have everyone telling you , you can not do that, too touchy. Truth be known, the film was great and funny as hell.
Mate, this is not a talkie.
😍Ahahah Ahahah
😍😍😍😂😂😂😂
can any 1 please tell me the 1st reeel talky of laurel n hardy......this is not...it ruins it.
yes, I can tell you but, I'm not going to
It's Unaccustomed As We Are.
They didn't want to know if something was new to you! They wanted to know which was Laurel and Hardy's first talking film!
@@panhead58ful U CAN USE SOME MANNERS...SON!!
Not a talkie
there non talkys was not good because of lack of talk , but still funny
I'm thinking that now, all these people that made us laugh, they are all skeletons...
yes and borned more time
No, @stan sorensen ... This movie was made in 1929 ... so 91 years ago. Who among all the people of that time lives now?
Time passes ... And we, the ones who are now on this TH-cam, in 91 years (in 2111) we will already be skeletons!
Not Oliver Hardy... He came back as a horse, remember?
@@rufust.firefly2474 yes. Now i'd imagine he's a horse skeleton now lol
Hi

This is almost a talkie wannabe. Very strange to transition between real talking and silent film.. it's illusion of talkie
Laural should of gotten away from her she was very immature annoying....
Should HAVE

I am surprised, this is not funny at all. I think it’s fake. Thanks from St. Paul Minnesota.
Not a fake, the original sound-on-disc accompaniment from 1928. Sorry that you didn't find it funny. Thanks from Toronto, Ontario.
