One kind of neat thing we got in the #PublicDomain this year is the first film appearance of the folks who would become the 3 Stooges.
They aren't quite the 3 stooges yet, and there are four of them, but it's the 3 stooges.

The Laurel-Hardy Murder Case is a 1930 comedy starring, you guessed it, Stan and Ollie.
It's a riff on The Bat and various other old dark house mysteries.

I am working on a public domain day radio show featuring only jazz songs written in 1930. It was a banner year topped by "I Got Rhythm", one of the most important songs in jazz because of all the contrefacts including Rhythm Changes, Oleo, and Rhythm a Ning. I am playing the Hank Jones version of "I Got Rhythm" recorded at Blue Note, Tokyo.

That's the film Soup To Nuts by the way.
Soup To Nuts was directed by Rube Goldberg, of Machine fame.

@ajroach42 You know Oliver Hardy was from Harlem, GA.? I grew up with his great-nephew.
@Paxil indeed! They do a festival every October. It's... Unimpressive but cute.
