MONKEY BUSINESSMEN (1946)

Film Pick of the Day
Wednesday, November 20, 2024

The Stooges are electricians who are fired after messing up a job. They decide to go away for a vacation and check into Doc Mallard's Rest Home and Clinic. It's not long before they discover that Doc Mallard is a quack, and his clinic is designed to gyp patients of their money. The boys try to escape, and Mallard's cure for that is to stop them by any means necessary.

Curly's condition was so bad during production that Moe had to coach him line by line.

Kenneth MacDonald's first appearance in a Stooge short.
