If you don't mind some recs, watch this 1st:
Comedy -- A Serious Business
Then watch the short films of Keaton (all his solo shorts 1920-3 are great) and Lloyd (1919-onward), eventually move on to their features

Any other movie.

The Golden Age of Comedy (1957) is a compilation of silent comedy films from the Mack Sennett and Hal Roach studios, written and produced by Robert Youngson. This was the first compilation of its kind in feature-length form
quote:
The film's commercial success led Youngson to follow suit with other silent film compilations over the next decade. The film is often regarded as particularly bringing Laurel and Hardy back into the public's notice after years of obscurity (they are the film's most predominantly featured performers), but Oliver Hardy died around the time of the film's release in August 1957

That film would never....EVER..be shown today
They showed in TCM a couple of years ago as part of a series about political movies. All the movies had a prominent person intro and talk about the film with Ben Mankiewicz before and after (I think after). I forget who it was that introduced it, a black writer or journalist maybe.
