The MGM film WOMAN WANTED (1935) is out on DVD-R on Jan. 29, courtesy of Warner Archive.

The released version of the film is nothing more than a footnote in the Stooges filmography. As ThreeStooges.net explains:

Ted Healy was cast as one of the police detectives on Ann's trail. It appears that he did film some scenes, and at least one production still with him survives. But the film had a troubled production history involving several directors, rewrites, delays, reshoots and recasting. One result of all that confusion was actor Lee Phelps taking over Healy's role. http://threestooges.net/filmography/episode/475

Even without the Healy angle, the rarely seen film might have some standalone value.

Reading the title before I saw the "(1935)" after it, my initial thought was, "I think this posting belongs at another board."

Hey, even without Healy, Edgar Kennedy is in it, so there's some comic pedigree.  I really love this Warner Archive series.  I own films from it I never would of imagined would otherwise have a market to be released.

I agree. A ton of films that wouldn't have seen the light of day otherwise have been circulated again.
