...just be a fiction completely unrelated to what the UFOs might have? All this earthly science-F equals ma and all the rest that I so much believe in-could it really be something else?" Many laymen, baffled by the scientists anyway, might find the overthrow of all their lore quite entertaining. But most scientists insist that their laws are universal; even the motion of distant stars and the nuclear reactions within them appear to obey the laws of terrestrial science...

Some of them, such as For a Thousand Dollars a Day and For Still More Dollars, are blatant copies. Most are long on gore but short on lore.

Incisive, objective and generously illustrated, the book traces the development of the team from their first silent two-reeler, Putting Pants on Philip (1927)-a fast-paced trifle with elements of homosexual humor-through their hilarious, Oscar-winning The Music Box (1932), to the sad, tired, misconceived mishmash, Atoll K (1952). In all, the dim-witted duo made 90 films as a team, immortalizing such mannerisms as Ollie...
