Now I'll Tell One is a 1927 silent film starring Charley Chase and also featuring Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. However, whilst both had parts in this short they didn't officially become a duo until several months after this film was released. It was directed by James Parrott (Charley Chase's brother), produced by Hal Roach and distributed by Pathécomedy. It was shot in 2 reels, but only the second survived. The first is considered lost.
