Why is it called the FX Follies of 2006? 70 Years ago, Our Gang (The Little Rascals) produced a short called “Our Gang Follies” of 1936. In this early short, the gang put on a show for their neighborhood, it was a big success and a lot of fun. Amazingly enough, these old time kiddie comedies along with Laurel and Hardy and others were filmed only one block away from Imageworks. Hal Roach studios was located just west of the corner of National and Washington Blvds and unfortunately was demolished in the mid 60’s. There is a plaque underneath the big tree on the corner that commorates this great comedy powerhouse of the 20’s and 30’s.

Len cracks me up in the video. He could care less what you think, he just does. A true ham.
