Die Blu-Ray wurde als High-Definition-Nachfolger der DVD entwickelt und bietet ihrem Vorläufer gegenüber eine erheblich gesteigerte Datenrate und Speicherkapazität. Auf Blu-Rays können daher Filme mit deutlich besserer Auflösung gespeichert werden und bieten auf entsprechenden Bildschirmen eine enorm hohe Bildqualität. Blu-Ray-Player sind in der Regel abwärtskompatibel zu DVDs, so dass auch diese abgespielt werden können.

The most celebrated comedy duo in cinema history, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy formed their decades-long partnership in the late 1920s in a series of silent shorts produced at the Hal Roach Studios. Having developed their on-screen chemistry in the likes of Do Detectives Think?, Putting Pants on Philip and The Battle of the Century throughout 1927, Laurel & Hardy forged on as a double act in the last years of the silent era and into the age of talking pictures.

This collection brings together the silent Laurel & Hardy shorts produced during 1928, as their partnership began to gather steam: Leave 'em Laughing sees Stan desperately seeking treatment for a toothache; You're Darn Tootin' follows the pair as they turn their hand to busking; in From Soup to Nuts, the boys are hired as waiters for an upper-class dinner party; and in Early to Bed, Ollie gets to enjoy the highlife for himself when he inherits a fortune and buys an opulent mansion. but Stan soon finds ways to lower its market value. This collection also features the first Hal Roach film to officially bill Laurel & Hardy as a duo: Should Married Men Go Home?, in which a relaxing trip to the golf course quickly spirals into chaos.

The Masters of Cinema series is honoured to present some of the finest (and funniest) films Laurel & Hardy ever made - newly restored in 2K resolution from the finest available materials - in a special two-disc Blu-ray edition for the first time in the UK. The set contains the following shorts: Leave 'em Laughing, The Finishing Touch, From Soup to Nuts, You're Darn Tootin', Their Purple Moment, Should Married Men Go Home?, Early to Bed, Two Tars, Habeas Corpus and We Faw Down.
