Oranges and Lemons is a 1923 American one-reel silent comedy starring Stan Laurel.[1] He plays an incompetent employee of a fruit orchard who only manages to keep his job because his fellow workers are even more inept, including the lovely packer (Grant) who flirts with him. As is typical of his films in this era, his character is far more aggressive and physical than the more familiar meek personality he adopted when he later teamed with Oliver Hardy.
