The Flying Deuces

The Flying Deuces is a 1939 buddy comedy film starring Laurel and Hardy as Ollie and Stan, who join the French Foreign Legion after Ollie's romantic woes are alleviated through their laborious duties, only to be arrested for desertion and escape in a fortuitous aerial adventure. The duo must navigate various misadventures, including a chaotic laundry scene, before finding themselves face-to-face with Georgette (Jean Parker), the object of Ollie's affections. Character-driven antics ensue as Stan and Ollie contend with their Foreign Legion duties, Francois' (Reginald Gardiner) stern demeanor, and the ever-present threat of death on multiple occasions.
