Review of Pardon Us

Pardon Us (1931)
7/10
Life in the Slammer
12 January 2017
Stan and Ollie are sent to jail for making home brew which they decide to sell during the Depression (and, of course, Prohibition). Stan insults the Warden because he has a vibrating tooth which makes it sound like he is giving the guy the raspberries. They are put in prison with the worst of the worst, who respects them because Stan does his vibrating tooth thing (he is seen as courageous). When the boys get caught up in a jailbreak, they manage to escape and go on to hide in cotton fields in the South with a bunch of black people. Unfortunately, the Warden and his daughter come along, and now they are back in prison. What happens after this involves another effort to escape. This is a cute movie. Stan even sings in this one.
