Legends of Comedy - The Golden Age of Comedy - The 20's and '30's

When comedy met the silver screen, it was love at first sight gag. From silent films, when body language spoke volumes, to the early "talkies" that added side splitting dialogue to the pratfalls and pie fights, the marriage between the big screen and big laughs was a match made in vaudeville heaven. Need proof... just watch these pioneers of the punch-line: Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, W.C. Fields, The Keystone Cops, Our Gang, Will Rogers, Laurel and Hardy, and more.
