Biographie:

Oliver Norvell « Babe » Hardy, né le 18 janvier 1892 à Harlem dans l'État de Géorgie et mort le 7 août 1957 dans le quartier North Hollywood de Los Angeles, est un acteur et chanteur américain. Il forme avec Stan Laurel le duo comique Laurel et Hardy. Avant sa carrière d'acteur Oliver Norvell Hardy est né dans une famille nombreuse. À l'âge de 2 ans, Hardy perd son père, juriste d'origine anglaise, et sera élevé par sa mère Emilly Norvell qui, elle, a des racines écossaises[1]. Il suit une scolarité normale et se passionne pour le chant lyrique. Sa mère l'encourage, mais la perspective de devenir chanteur professionnel ne l'enchante guère. Il poursuit son cursus scolaire et décroche son diplôme d'avocat — profession qu'il n'exercera pas. En 1910, Hardy découvre le cinéma, il ouvre dans la foulée une salle de cinéma. La nuit, « Babe » (surnom de Hardy) chante dans les cabarets. Carrière d'acteur en solo Oliver Hardy dans A Day at School (en) (1916) En 1919, Oliver Hardy rejoint les Studios de la Vitagraph Company of America où il va seconder Jimmy Aubrey dans ses comédies. Ce dernier est l'acteur phare du studio et tourne à un rythme effréné. En un peu plus d'un an, Babe (son nom de scène) joue à ses côtés dans près de 25 films, d'abord réalisés par Noel M. Smith, puis Jess Robbins lorsque le premier quitte la Vitagraph. Il retrouve aussi Charley Chase, rencontré à la King-Bee et qu'il avait suivi à la L-KO. C'est aussi à la Vitagraph qu'il rencontre Larry Semon écrit, réalise et joue ses propres comédies. Engagé comme scénariste puis réalisateur en 1916 à la Vitagraph, c'est lui qui à l'époque fait tourner Jimmy Aubrey. À partir de 1919, il ne tourne plus que ses propres films et donne souvent des rôles à Oliver Hardy, qui tiendra ainsi le rôle de « Tin Woodman » (le bûcheron en fer blanc) dans Le Sorcier d'Oz (The Wizard of Oz - 1925), une adaptation cinématographique long métrage du roman pour enfants Le Magicien d'Oz. Carrière d'acteur avec Stan Laurel C'est en 1919 qu'il tourne pour la première fois aux côtés de Stan Laurel. Le Veinard (The Lucky Dog), une comédie muette de Jess Robbins, un film d'essai en vue de réaliser une série de courts métrages dont Stan Laurel jouerait le rôle-titre, ne sera diffusé qu'en 1922. Oliver Hardy y interprète un voleur qui, par méprise, se fait déposséder par Stan Laurel du fruit de son larcin et tente de se venger.
