Film Pick of the Day
Friday, March 29, 2024
The Stooges portray incredibly klutzy ice men who accidentally cause Mr. Lawrence (Vernon Dent) to smash not one but two birthday cakes. When they drive Mrs. Lawrence's cook and maid to quit, the Stooges volunteer to prepare the dinner, not knowing who her husband is!
The flight of stairs used in this comedy were long a topic of discussion by fans. Their definitive location, and the story of their discovery, was reported in The Three Stooges Journal # 98 (Summer 2001) and # 99 (Fall 2001).
Partially redone as LISTEN JUDGE (1952). The turkey stuffing gags were performed 7 years earlier by Shemp Howard in his Vitaphone short subject A PEACH OF A PAIR (1934); the director of that film was Lloyd French, AN ACHE IN EVERY STAKE's screenwriter.
