Filipino, " Payat ( thin ) Taba ( fat )
Whenever Laurel & Hardy films were released in foreign countries, the actual names “Laurel & Hardy” were often changed. In most cases they were substituted by nicknames which described the Boys as “Fat & Thin,” or of the order “Thick and Stupid” – the latter missing the mark point altogether. Below are examples of how other countries would have seen Laurel & Hardy billed at the cinema. BELGIUM — Laurel et
Hardy BRAZIL — O Gordo e O Magro DENMARK — Gog og Gokke EGYPT — El Tikhin Ouel Roufain ESTONIA — Laurel ja Hardy; Paks
