00:00The End
00:30I love you, I love you, I love you.
00:45You are the ideal of my dreams.
00:54I always knew it would be someone like you.
01:02I've loved you forever, it seems.
01:13For years in my mind's fondest fancy,
01:19a picture of your face I drew.
01:30And I knew you somehow
01:36When I met you just now
01:43You are the ideal
01:51Of my dreams.
01:58What are you getting so mushy about?
02:09Well, I'm glad you asked me.
02:12I couldn't keep it from you much longer.
02:16What?
02:17Life's biggest moment.
02:20I'm going to be married.
02:22You don't believe me.
02:27Yes, I don't believe...
02:29What do you mean you don't believe me?
02:32Didn't I just tell you I was going to be married?
02:35Who to?
02:36Why, a woman, of course.
02:38Did you ever hear of anybody marrying a man?
02:42Sure.
02:43Who?
02:45My sister.
02:46This is no time for levity.
02:56She's the sweetest girl you ever saw.
03:00Well-read.
03:01Traveled all over the world.
03:04Loved by everyone.
03:08And she's mine.
03:10All mine.
03:12Well, what do you think of it?
03:19What does levity mean?
03:26Levity is a synonymum.
03:31You know what a synonymum is.
03:38Synonymum is cinnamon.
03:42Hello?
03:47Hello?
03:48What are you doing?
03:50Somebody knocking on the phone.
03:52That's levity.
03:57Hello, Mr. Levity?
04:00Go to the door.
04:07Hello, Mr. Levity.
04:10Mm.
04:16Better from Mr. Hardy.
04:19Thank you, Mr. Levity.
04:21Yes, sir.
04:21It's from her.
04:39It's from her.
04:41Wait till I find my glasses.
04:42You read it.
04:53I can't find them.
04:54Ahem.
05:15My dear, darling, precious Oliver.
05:21As I sit writing this note to you...
05:24...with your picture in front of me.
05:31I have decided that all is over between us...
05:36...for I love another...
05:39...your one-time sweetheart, Jean.
05:44Oh.
05:46Oh.
05:48Oh.
05:52Oh.
05:54What's the matter?
05:59Didn't you read it?
06:01Yeah, but I wasn't listening.
06:09Give me that letter.
06:11Wait a minute. There's some more.
06:12Wait a minute. There's some more.
06:23You see my glasses with the...
06:29B.S.
06:30It's best we never see each other again.
06:35Genie Weenie.
06:38What does she mean, B.S.?
06:42Big sucker, I guess.
06:44Big sucker.
06:48Now I see it all.
06:53You vampire.
06:55You wrecker of men's happiness.
06:57And I learned about women from you.
07:15Come, Stanley.
07:16Where are you going?
07:22Where are you going?
07:26We are going where we can forget.
07:30What do you mean, we've got to forget?
07:32None of your business.
07:33Come on and let's go.

09:40Come, come, my man. What is your number?
09:47Hollywood 4368
09:49This is no place for liberty.
09:57What's your name?
09:59This is my friend, Mr. Laurel, Admiral. My name is Hardy. Oliver Norville Hardy.
10:15Joined up together, eh?
10:17Yes, ma'am.
10:19We are buddies.
10:21Well, you certainly are a sorry-looking pair.
10:25We are not sorry.
10:27No, sir. We're just discouraged.
10:31What on earth ever prompted you to join the Legion?
10:37Well, you see, Brigadier, it was like this.
10:39I came here to help him forget.
10:41Forget?
10:43Forget what?
10:45Well, well, well.
10:47I forgot.
10:49You forgot what you came here to forget?
10:53Well, we'll see that you don't forget what you're here for.
10:57Put them through their preliminary routine.
10:59We'll start whipping them into shape tomorrow.
11:01Yes, sir.
11:11Attack!
11:13Right face!
11:14Four!
11:15One!
11:16One, two, one!

11:42Can we get a room by ourselves?
11:45Certainly.
11:46I'll get you a room with a bath.
11:48with a bath.
12:09La mia bambina, l'unico amor mio.
12:18You didn't ought to have done it, baby.
12:34She's travelled all over the world.
12:38Loved by everyone.
12:43And she's mine, all mine.
12:48That settles it.
12:50What?
12:51Come on.
12:52Where are you going?
12:53None of your business. Come on.
12:55That's all right, you'll find the door.
12:57Come on, come on.
13:01Come on.
13:04Well?
13:05Well?
13:19If you please, sir, we'd like to rectify a small mistake.
13:24Mistake?
13:25Yes, sir.
13:26Since joining your army, we find that we've been disillusioned.
13:31Disillusioned?
13:32Yes, sir, disillusioned.
13:33You see, sir, it was like this.
13:35We came here because of a woman.
13:39Hmm.
13:4099% of us do.
13:42What of it?
13:44Well, most luckily, sir, we found out just in time that this woman wasn't worth it.
13:49No, sir.
13:50You know what she did?
13:52And we've decided to leave before it's too late.
13:56So you've decided to leave, have you?
13:59Yes, sir.
13:59And if any mail comes for us, would you send it to this address?
14:02What do you think this is?
14:06A picnic?
14:07You're here and here you're going to stay.
14:10This is the army of forgotten souls.
14:13Men come to this godforsaken spot to forget and be forgotten.
14:18Men come here to accept the hardships of the desert and the wasteland.
14:23To be without food, without water, and to laugh at it all.
14:26All commers will fall bleeding and dying at your side.
14:33Others will take their places.
14:34And you are here to stay until the rattle in your dying throat relieve you.
14:42Go back to your quarters.
14:44Yes, sir.
14:45Thank you, sir.
14:45Back to your quarters.
14:57Goodbye.
14:57Goodbye.

15:42Captain Shultz!
15:53Move!
15:55Take all those new recruits out and put them through their paces.
16:02Now, sir?
16:03At once!
16:04Do you hear me?
16:05At once!
16:06Yes, sir!
16:12Hold it again!
16:17Hold it again!
16:18Hold it again!
16:18Hold it again!
16:42Well, well.
16:51Why, my comrades, you're looking better already.
16:59Get on the bed early.
17:00Thursday, tomorrow, we'll take them out for a real march.
17:04Yes, sir.
17:06Mr. General, couldn't you make that Friday?
17:10I can't get up in the morning.
17:13Silence!
17:14And mob!
17:23How do you feel, lad?
17:27Oh.
17:31I'm so tired, my feet are killing me.
17:36Oh.
17:38Oh.
17:39That feels so good.
17:51Oh.
17:59Oh.
18:00Oh!
18:30Scratch my back.
18:37Scratch your own back.
18:39I've got troubles of my own.
18:40Oh.
19:00Scratch my back.
19:18Scratch my back.
19:20Scratch my back.
19:22Scratch my back.
19:25Come in.
19:35What news, Marconi ally?
19:37Bad news, Sahib.
19:39The riffs are preparing to make an attack on Fort Arab.
19:42How strong are they?
19:44They number more than the hairs in the head of Muhammad.
19:47We must have reinforcements or the post is doomed.
19:52You may go.
19:58Marching orders, Captain.
20:00Yes, sir.
20:01Take every available man.
20:03You leave at once for forever.
20:05Not to newly cooters.
20:06Yes, take them all.
20:07The experience will do them good.
20:09They're pretty tired, then.
20:10That is the time to train men when they're tired.
20:12Show them what the hardships of the desert mean.
20:15Spare no men, but return them here at the earliest opportunity.
20:19Yes, my colonel.
20:22What?
20:23I feel just like Genie Weenie.
20:28What do you mean you feel just like Genie Weenie?
20:31I feel like I've traveled all over the world.
20:35Go to sleep.
20:39Attention!

24:16Eh?

24:19What did you do with your equipment?
24:21I wrapped it up in yours.
24:23Oh.

25:33What it is again!
25:34What is it?
25:35What oh!
25:36What is it?
25:37What does it look like?
25:38Let's go.
26:08Bring him in.
26:25I am the commander.
26:27What do you want?
26:29Does the commander wish to surrender now or not?
26:34Surrender?
26:35Hmm. Not while I have a man left.
26:39Hmm.
26:41By the grace of Allah, this is your last chance.
26:46You have my answer.
26:48Go!
26:50Then the bones of your beloved legionnaires
26:54will lie bleaching in the desert sand.
26:58Get him in.
27:01He's under a flag of truce.
27:04Now then, go back to your scavengers.
27:08You can expect anything at any time.
27:23And comrades, and comrades, it looks like the end.
27:29Unless help arrives, we are doomed.
27:34Caught like...
27:35Like rats in a trap.
27:39Go!

28:48Company!
28:49Halt!
28:53Why, where are the rest of the men?
28:56Well, you see, Commodore, it was like this.
28:58We were sent here with a copy.
29:00They got lost in the storm,
29:02so I took charge of what was left.
29:04True it down.
29:11All men back to your post!
29:13Two more gone.
29:18You'll have to take their places.
29:20Yes, sir.
29:22Their ammunition is nearly done.
29:24Go, climb the walls and open the gates.
29:27And give us the signal.
29:29Go!

33:35It's our only chance.

36:43Yes, sir. He was trying to make a getaway on his dormitory.
36:47Not dormitory. Dromedary.
36:51Oh, yes. A thing that needs dates.
36:54Search him and take him away.
36:56Yes, sir.
36:57Oh.
36:59Oh, no, Zahe. Not that anything but...
37:02Shh.
37:05Wait a minute.
37:06Oh, take him away.
37:12But I meant your destiny.
