Stan’s first scene in Do You Love Your Wife?, which was made first of his five Rolin comedies but released after No Place Like Jail and Just Rambling Along in January 1919. It is also his earliest surviving movie.
Belle Mitchell crochets, Bunny Bixby tries to post a letter, James Parrott, future director of many of the funniest Laurel and Hardy movies, accompanies her, and Lois Neilson, future first Mrs Laurel, minds the switchboard.
