This is the film that contains the infamous scene where Lawrence Tibbett sings while he is tied between two posts and whipped.
This title was originally one of over 700 features included in the MGM feature film package which was initially sold to local television stations in 1956; however, there is no record of the film ever actually having been shown, and later editions of the TV Key Book list it as "Withdrawn by MGM-TV; Bad Negative"; the same situation applies to Pension de famille (1930).
Although no print of this film is known to exist, the complete 90-minute soundtrack does. MGM transferred early sound discs to tape and approximately half of this material was released on LP in the early 1980s - on an obscure label. This included parts of the dialogue but was mainly the musical numbers. This is the only Laurel and Hardy "feature" film no longer available.
A brief Technicolor clip in poor quality survives of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy involved with a bear in a cave.
Is on AFI's "Lost Films" list.
