The COMEDY KINGS 20 MOVIE PACK from MILL CREEK is primarily a repackaging of titles previously available on their FAMILY CLASSICS 50 and 100 MOVIE PACK sets. Included here are five silent films, an early talkie (with Jack Benny), and comedy teams like Hope & Crosby, Laurel & Hardy and Abbott & Costello. It's a solid program of classic public domain comedies.

This is a terrific value - very funny, sometimes dated old movies. My only caveat is that some of them have a low sound volume and cannot be turned up.
We are having a great time with these movies.

Well worth your time to see how many movies depended on 'Talented Actors' Instead of Special Effects..
