And it was Curly's last short. You can tell, he is sick the shorts before Half Wits Holiday, epescially, Beer Bottle Polecats, three Loan wolves, idle roomers.
Thank you so much for sharing this,I am in the UK and the only stooges I've seen was when channel 4 ran them back in the 80's, so this one was new to me- brilliant!!!
*thubooong* Oh, a backfire, eh? lol...i swear this episode, no matter how many times I have seen it, still brings me to tears laughing. RIP Moe Larry and Curly!!!
Can anyone tell me how they managed that business with Curly bouncing back up from the floor starting around 7: 25? It's not reversed because the people in the background keep dancing. It's always been my favorite moment in my favorite short.
At the beginning of part 2 listen for the song, I love that song they always have playing at the parties in the three stooges eps. There are some other really relaxing songs. Don't know why but i just love em.
I cringe every time I see that part. There is absolutely nothing to protect her face. Both hands are held away. She hits so hard, her feet follow through. There is no doubt, if she didn't get some measure of injury, it no less than hurt like the dickens. She's a sport though, and must love humor, and is willing to pay a price for it, because she's laughing away later.
It's amazing seeing the things like this and realizing half of this stuff they could never get away with now. Stooges would have an R rating just for Curly and the big woman's slapfest alone.
The Three Stooges is proof that people in this Era need to lighten up.
This is the last full feature Curly ever appeared in. He suffered a stroke while on the set filming this picture (he was a very heavy drinker, smoker, and womanizer). Curly died in 1952. They brought Shemp back until his death in 1956, after which Joe Besser became "Curly Joe".
@Dogheadj No Curly Last Film Was Half-Wits Hoiliday & Shemp Died In 1955 & Shemp's Replacement Was Joe Besser Joe Besser Was Not Curly-Joe Joe Derita Was Curly Joe Not Besser
@69789Darius You're right. Half-Wits Holiday was a remake of "Hoi Polloi". I was basing my comments on an interview with Moe Howard. Moe was getting on in age, and may have gotten his dates wrong, as well as a few other details. I stand corrected.
@69789Darius Moe stated on the Mike Douglas Show (Youtube) that this was Curlys last episode, he (Curly) did have a stroke while filming this. Such a shame, even though he was sad at his death, all four still make us laugh even today (Quiet Numbskull)
@Rick02809 Moe mad a mistake to Douglas but its understandable. "Half Wit Holiday" is just a recycled version of "Hoi Molloi". Its practically the same story so its understandable why Moe would make the mistake. In "Half Wit Holiday" Curly showed very little physical comedy. He was nowhere near as demonstrative and energetic as he was is in this episode.
@ReeseMac Don't forget "Pies and Guys" (1958) was a recycled version of both "Half-Wits Holiday" and "Hoi Polloi," only "Pies and Guys" had Joe Besser with Larry and Moe.
@1985OldSkool The topic is more about which episode Curly made his final full featured appearance in. Not recycled episodes....but thanks for the info.
@Rick02809@69789Darius Hoi Polloi was the 10th film by the stooges filmed in 1935 so it couldn't have been the last Curly episode. Half-Wits Holiday (97th episode filmed in 1947) was based off of the same concept so I can understand how Moe may have said Hoi Polloi on the Mike Douglas Show but he meant Half-Wits Holiday. If you watch Half-Wits, you'll notice that Curly doesn't appear in remaining last 3 minutes for the pie fight.
@Dogheadj No this wasn't Curly's last full feature, Half-Wits Hoiliday was the last full feature with Curly when he had his stroke. But this short is somewhat simular to Half-Wits Holiday. On here, the 3 Stooges were garbage men and in Half-Wit Holiday they were plumbers.
Below is the link with the last short of Curly's last full feature short.
MY GOD, did anyone see that poor lady falling at 2:50? She fell head first very hard. It's a wonder she didn't crack her skull open. That HAD to hurt!!!!
@ThirdOfJune4444 Actually I do think she got hurt as what follows is a new scene, so chances are she got hurt and they filmed that part later when she was OK.
@darthrich9 LMFAO! That's my FAVORITE PART of this whole short. In fact, that's one of my favorite moments in Stooges HISTORY. He slaps the FUCK out of Larry @ 6:04.
@Ulalafanboy Absolutely. He's slapping the piss out of Curly & Larry in this episode more than any other. Even though he's always mean, he's meanER in this one. Like he's almost doing it for NO REASON.
I cried because I was laughing so hard!
