Curleys First Wife

(1/6) > >>

Robbie883:
I was recently watching The Three Stooges Story, it was a movie that came in this box set. Anyways, they said that the identity of Curley FIRST wife was unknown, any information that arose on that topic of anykind? Also it said Momma Horwitz made him divorce this unknown wife because she "Strongly Opposed To The Union" What did his marrage have to do with The Union

garystooge:
Curly's first wife was Julia Rosenthal. They were married on August 5, 1930 and the wedding took place at 5415 14th Ave. in Brooklyn, NY.
When the movie states that Jennie Horwitz was opposed to the "union", it was the union of the bride and groom that she was opposed to.

Actually, Mrs. Horowitz had a secret, sordid affair with a descendant of Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy. Therefore, the statement has a double meaning.

Yes, I'd forgotten about that Shemps. Of course there's also the rumor that her advances were rejected by Samuel Gompers, first President of the American Federation of Labor, which launched  her into a life-long anti-labor movement crusade, so the statement actually has a triple meaning
