UNACCUSTOMED AS WE ARE (Theatrical Release USA 1929)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.7|5.0 Starsììì 

Unaccustomed As We Are—short film—does not provide the usual Laurel and Hardy fare. It’s an average story that shows a Laurel and Hardy who are not invested in the story. This is not the Laurel and Hardy that we know and love.
