Laurel and Hardy - Their Purple Moment (1928) - Filming Locations

Laurel and Hardy are once again trying to fool the wives and sneak out to a night on the town. Unfortunately, the town gossip is tracking their every move!

The movie location used in this Laurel and Hardy film was nearly a victim of the I-10 freeway construction Los Angeles in the 1960s. If the planners had decided to move the freeway just one block to the south, the homes seen in this Laurel and Hardy movie would have been demolished and under 20 feet of the freeway embankment. Fortunately, the planners decided on a route just a half block north of this filming location and these beautiful homes (many over 100 years old now) survive.
