There's something lazy about PICK A STAR, a simplistic story in which an ordinary girl wins a talent contest and finds herself in Hollywood and mingling with the stars of yesterday. It's essentially a stretched story linking together a series of vignettes, many of which feature long-forgotten folk who mean nothing to modern viewers. The exception lies in the second half of the production, in which Laurel and Hardy show up for a lengthy interlude delivering plenty of their trademark comedy; they're a delight as always which makes this a must watch for their fans.
