Victor Albert (Walter Woolf King), a composer, is staying at a hotel in the Swiss Alps to gain inspiration for his latest opera and to escape his wife, Anna (Della Lind), a pretentious singer. But, Anna finds Victor and demands a role in the opera. Victor refuses, claiming Anna can't relate to a broad audience. Meanwhile, two mousetrap salesmen (Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy) are swindled out of their money and forced to work as dishwashers in the same hotel.

A touch of schmaltz worked box-office wonders for the Marx Brothers in A Night at the Opera, so Hal Roach pitched a tubful at this 1938 Laurel and Hardy vehicle. It's one of their worst films. Go to Full Review

3/5
The film still contains a couple of classic sequences, most notably Stan's attempt to trick a St Bernard dog into letting him at its brandy keg and Ollie singing Let Me Call You Sweetheart to Stan's sousaphone accompaniment. Go to Full Review
