The Bullfighters
''The Bullfighters'' is the penultimate feature film starring Laurel and Hardy, and the final film the duo released in the United States.
==Plot==
Private detectives Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy travel to Mexico City in pursuit of an infamous female larcenist named Hattie Blake (Carol Andrews), who is publicly known as ”Larceny Nell”. Meanwhile, an American sports promotor, Richard K. Muldoon (Ralph Sanford) meets with publicity man ”Hot Shot” Coleman (Richard Lane), and his assistant (Irving Gump) to discuss an upcoming bullfight featuring famed Spanish matador Don Sebastian. But when Muldoon sees a picture of the bullfighter he is enraged: Don Sebastian looks exactly like Laurel. Eight years before, Laurel and Hardy testified against Muldoon in a criminal case, and Muldoon was wrongfully convicted until the real criminal confessed and Muldoon was released but had during his time in prison lost his wife and business and had to start all over in Mexico. He still holds a grudge against Stan and Ollie and vows revenge: "I'll skin them alive! First the little one, then the big one! I'll skin them both alive!"
Coleman sees Laurel's uncanny resemblance to the bullfighter. Since the real Don Sebastian's arrival is delayed because of passport trouble, Coleman forces Stan to impersonate the bullfighter in the meantime, threatening to reveal his and Ollie's true identities to Muldoon if he doesn’t cooperate, but promising them a very handsome payment for their trouble if he does. Stan reluctantly agrees.
On the day of the fight Stan, nervous about fighting any bulls, gets drunk. Suddenly, the real Don Sebastian arrives. Ollie mistakes him for Stan and forces him into the arena. Stan staggers up, and Hardy sends ''him'' into battle. With two Laurels in the ring, the outraged spectators cry foul and every bull in the arena is turned loose. Stan and Ollie try to escape the vengeful Muldoon, but not fast enough. The film ends with Muldoon catching up with them at the hotel, skinning them alive as promised, leaving them, except their heads, in bare bones. Then Ollie says his "another nice mess…" catchphrase to Stan. Stan whimpers.
