Many years ago I climbed these steps and cried with joy. That was 1978. No placard yet, as I recall. I love those guys so much. Thanks for the trip down memory lane, or should I say memory stairs🎬🎹🎬🎹❣️

When I first was looking for a place to rent in L.A. many years back- and before I was familiar with "The Music Box"- I happened to first look at an apartment one or two addresses to the left or right of these steps. The person showing me the place told me how this famous film was made on "one of these steps." The apartment was also not only far up the steps, but you additionally, once inside, had to go up many steps, some twisting, to get up to the apartment. Irony of ironies, already sitting right in the apartment was a Music Box! Yes, an old, upright piano. I just had to smile.

I had to go back and watch the Music Box. The area around the staircase sure has changed. Back then, no rails and more empty lots. My favorite part of the film is the professor shouting all his degree letters at Laurel and Hardy. Also when they finally get the piano delivered and do a dance to congratulate themselves! You just know it wouldn't go right for the boys. Another trip back in time. Thank you Clyde!

Check out the light above the garage door at 2.38 and 3.27 minutes on the road , the original house right of the stairs there is still to this day the very same light from the 1931 film. I could not believe it myself. Look at some original footage at the bottom of the steps and the house to the right you will see the very same light as in this video

Nicely done and a caring, sincere video. But it’s quite depressing to see what that neighborhood has become, as is the case with some other filming locations. The ignorant defacing of the plaque and street sign are a disgrace, and it’s also obvious that the powers that be there, have done nothing to preserve the simple, clean beauty of what I’m sure was once a charming neighborhood. Shame on them!
