Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Buzz (Bud Abbott) and Abercrombie (Lou Costello) work in a Tinseltown haircut salon where they usually just take a little off the side. But why not take 10% off the top instead? So the fellas become movie talent agents setting in motion the lights-camera-comedy antics of Abbott and Costello in Hollywood including Costello being mistaken for a prop dummy during the filming of a saloon brawl Bud and Lou coping with insomnia and a pursuit finale in the cars and on the tracks of a roaring roller-coaster. You'll also find Lost in a Harem. Locked in is more like it as the two land in the hoosegow twice where their timing repartee and monkeyshines shine. Douglas Dumbrille plays the evil potentate who uses hypnosis against the boys ? making this a tale of Arabian daze and nights. The grand wazir orders you to watch!Running Time: 172 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 012569794580 Manufacturer No: 79458

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The boys create chaos outside of their home studio

First, the issue of quality. The only quality defect I noticed on my copy were vertical white lines and specks due to scratches on the film throughout parts of the "Harem". As far as I could tell, the quality of the transfer of "In Hollywood" is flawless. I already had these two movies on DVD-R burnt from laser disc, and the quality of these releases is no worse than that of the laser disc. "Lost In A Harem" and "In Hollywood" are two movies Abbott & Costello did with MGM movies studios. The boys ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - GREAT DVD
WORTH THE MONEY
I LOVE THIS DVD, BRINGS BACK LAUGHTER AND MEMORYS AND YOU NEVER GET BORED WITH IT,



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good pair of movies
I found this DVD to have very good viewing quality and no noticeable blue coloring at the top of my HDTV screen. Enjoyed both movies and a good addtion for your A&C library.
