A bit of a random post, but I'm excited and I wanna share!
In my country there's a really famous satirical comedy quartet whose name can be translated to "Sons of the desert". They've been going strong ever since their first show in 1991, and they usually make fun of people of historical importance and fictional characters and stories. I've watched their show with my mom ever since I was old enough to understand it - it's not exactly for kids lol.
HOWEVER... this year I'm particularly excited. Look at the poster:

Recognize the character to the right? That's Quasimodo. So they're gonna make fun of The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
I can't wait 🤣
And as a funny sidenote: Dude to the right dressed as Quasimodo? He's the Danish voice for Thomas O'Malley from Aristocats 😂

Sons of the Desert (1933)
Tumblr media
Stan Laurel as Stan
Oliver Hardy as Oliver
Charley Chase as Charley
Mae Busch as Lottie Hardy
Dorothy Christy as Betty Laurel
Lucien Littlefield as Dr. Horace Meddick, the veterinarian

Stan and Ollie want to go to the national convention of the Sons of the Desert fraternal lodge in Chicago. Unfortunately Mrs Laurel and Mrs Hardy want to go to the mountains.
Tumblr media
For me, this is Laurel and Hardy at their very best. The storline, though basic, is a much imitated classic. The gags come thick and fast. The slapstick is perfectly executed, and every performer plays their part to perfection. As always with Laurel and Hardy, it's the lovely slow little bits and pieces around the chaotic gags that make it so very good.

A particular stand-out scene is Ollie faking his "nervous shakedown" and Stan providing chaos and a vet to help out.
Charley Chase makes the most of his cameo appearance as a rather annoying felow Son of the Desert.
Tumblr media
Special mention should also go to Ty Parvis and Charita Alden of Honolulu Baby fame.

Director William A. Seiter had already been directing films for almost 20 years when Sons of the Desert came out and he's competent and unflashy.

I Hope You Dance
Song by Lee Ann Womack and Sons of the Desert
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder, You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger, May you never take one single breath for granted, God forbid love ever leave you empty handed, I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean, Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens, Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance... I hope you dance...
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance, Never settle for the path of least resistance, Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin', Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin', Don't let some Hell bent heart leave you bitter, When you come close to sellin' out reconsider, Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
I hope you dance... I hope you dance. I hope you dance... I hope you dance. (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along, Tell me who wants to look back on their years And wonder where those years have gone.)
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean, Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens, Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.
Dance... I hope you dance. I hope you dance... I hope you dance. I hope you dance... I hope you dance. (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along, Tell me who wants to look back on their years And wonder where those years have gone.)

Ty Parvis: Sang "Honolulu Baby"
Ty Parvis: Sang “Honolulu Baby”
I grew curious about Ty Parvis (Tyrone Parvis, 1912-1990) on account of his best known performance — he’s the young man (all of 21) who sings the irresistible song “Honolulu Baby” in one of Laurel and Hardy’s best known comedy’s Sons of the Desert (1933). My sources for the few known scraps, as in so many similar cases, are Lord Heath and the gang at Nitrateville. Parvis was a child performer…

@iskuplen liked for a starter
Link regarded the other man with a silent tilt of his head - this was Ganondorf? From the stories and warnings he'd heard growing up in the desert, the man didn't fit the legend after however many thousand years since the last Gerudo-born son. Perhaps it was all greatly exaggerated, but Link had been assigned to guard the man all the same.
Rumor would spread and there was concern about what would happen if the rest of Hyrule would do if they found out about Ganondorf.
So Link now found himself standing before Ganondorf, looking him over, studying him.
