Review by Chrysanthepop

'Unaccustomed As We Are' is another comical short where Laurel and Hardy argue with Hardy's wife...again. The duo are back with Thelma Todd, Edgar Kennedy and Mae Busch. It starts off with an Hardy bringing Laurel home to dinner and he's very excited about introducing him to his wife. Throughout the entire twenty minutes, the kitchen burns down thrice, the sensual neighbour has to disrobe and hide herself in a box, a policeman is involved...and lots of hilarious silly adventure. The short is quite well executed. I'm not much used to see Laurel and Hardy talk (and this apparently is their first talkie) so this was quite different from their usual work that I'm more acquainted with. Yes somehow I still prefer their silent films. While this may not be the best of the classic comic duo, it still remains entertaining thanks the the actors' impeccable comic timing even though it's now almost 80 years old.
