The Chimp

 As circus “helpers” the Boys bedevil ringmaster James Finlayson and ruin strongman Tiny Sandford’s cannon act.  When the circus folds, the owner pays off his help with parts of the circus.  Stan gets the flea circus, Ollie, the chimp (Charles Gamora).  They then rent a room for the night in Billy Gilbert’s boardinghouse, with amusing consequences.

Sound, 1932, b/w, 26 min.

Barnum & Ringling

An Our Gang comedy in which Ollie appears briefly near the end.  The Gang sets up a “zoo and circus” in a posh apartment house; the circus’s main attraction is a weird assortment of  wild and dangerous domestic animals dressed up by the kids.

Silent, 1928, b/w, 25 min.

Arrival time is 6:00, to allow time for dining. Movies begin at about 7:15 p.m.
