Great Guns is a 1941 film directed by Monty Banks, and produced by Sol M. Wurtzel for 20th Century Fox starring Laurel and Hardy. Pampered and sickly young millionaire Dan Forrester (Dick Nelson) joins the army, helped and hindered by his gardener Stan Laurel and his chauffeur Oliver Hardy. While there, he falls in love with a woman, Ginger Hammond (Sheila Ryan), who runs a photography store, but is equally the attraction of Forrester's commanding officer, Sgt. Hippo (Edmund MacDonald). Laurel and Hardy emerge triumphant after some mock war maneuvers. The first of Laurel and Hardy's post-Hal Roach features, Great Guns is generally regarded as the start of the team's decline, since they were given unsuitable, out-of-character scripts to work with, and very little artistic freedom behind the camera. At Hal Roach Studios, Stan Laurel looked on such creativity behind as well as in front of the camera as routine, but Twentieth Century Fox did not allow such luxuries. The future film star Alan Ladd appears briefly as a photo store customer; he does not share any scenes with Laurel and Hardy. LESS
