Details

Skandal i Oxford (1940) is a comedic film starring Stan and Oliver, also known as Laurel and Hardy. In the movie, the duo find themselves in a series of hilarious situations. They first work as a butler and a maid for a dinner party at the Vandevere's, but things quickly go awry. Consequently, they are forced to take on menial jobs, such as street sweeping.

However, their luck takes a surprising turn when they accidentally capture a bank robber. The bank president, grateful for their bravery, rewards them by sending them to Oxford to receive a proper education. Unfortunately, their time at Oxford is not without its challenges. They become victims of student pranks, getting lost in a maze, and even inadvertently take over the Dean's quarters.

Things take a comedic twist when Stan suffers a knock on the head and believes he is the renowned Lord Paddington, a scholar and athlete of great distinction. Suddenly transformed into a pompous and knowledgeable character, Stan hires Oliver, whom he now calls Fatty, to be his loyal valet.

The movie continues with hilarious antics as Stan, now convinced of his lofty status, continues to cause chaos and confusion. Skandal i Oxford is a delightful and entertaining film that showcases the unique comedy stylings of Laurel and Hardy.
