Some genius comedic bits here, as on a much-needed vacation to soothe Ollie's nerves, the famed duo camp in the country and inadvertently get drunk on moonshine, thinking it's 'healthy mountain water'. They share its virtues with a beautiful woman and then have to deal with the crazily jealous husband. Highly recommended if and when you need a few really good laughs!

Them Thar Hills
Overview
Stan and Ollie travel to the mountains for Ollie's health, and park their caravan near a well into which a gang of moonshiners have earlier dumped their moonshine; and the boys proceed to quench their thirst thinking that it is iron-rich mountain water. The real trouble doesn't begin, though, until a married motoring couple stop by to borrow some gasoline, and the already-cranky husband leaves his thirsty wife with the boys while he goes off to refill his car's empty gas-tank. A sequel was made to this film: TIT FOR TAT, q.v.

So poor old Ollie has gout! To help him recover, he and Stan retreat to a remote mountain shack where it transpires the local moonshiners have been hiding their produce in plain sight - in the well! Gradually the pair discover that they are rather partial to the local water. There is a fun sequence with Charlie Hall amongst some amiable antics, and though maybe we have seen a few of the scenarios elsewhere amongst this duo's output before, this is a tightly paced but simple and amusing twenty minute outing that I really quite enjoyed.
