What happens

The All New Adventures of Laurel & Hardy in "For Love or Mummy" is a 1999 American comedy film directed by Larry Harmon and John Cherry, based on the film shorts of Laurel & Hardy. It stars Bronson Pinchot and Gailard Sartain as Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. This was the first of only two non-Ernest P. Worrell films that Cherry (primarily an advertising executive) directed in his lifetime, the other being Pirates of the Plain. Harmon earned writing and directing credits through the ownership of the Laurel and Hardy trademarks, which he had purchased in the 1960s. Another Harmon-owned character, Bozo the Clown, is mentioned in the film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
