Angora Love is the final silent film made by Laurel and Hardy, released on December 14, 1929.

Plot

Laurel and Hardy encounter a wandering goat that becomes attached to them subsequent to their benevolent act of offering it doughnuts. The goat persistently trails them, necessitating its accommodation within their apartment. However, their attempts to conceal the animal from their landlord prove ineffectual, leading to escalating tensions and confrontations.

The situation escalates to a climax marked by a water altercation involving Stan, Ollie, the landlord, a fellow tenant, and a law enforcement officer. As the conflict unfolds, the policeman intervenes, resulting in the arrest of the landlord. Stan and Ollie emerge from the altercation seemingly triumphant.

Cast

Production notes

Angora Love was Laurel and Hardy's final silent film. It was released late in 1929 when most Hollywood studios had fully converted to sound productions. Several jokes would be recycled in Laughing Gravy and The Chimp. The foot rubbing gag was re-used in Beau Hunks.
