Product Description

From Amazon.com

"Three Arabian Nuts" (1951, short number 129 in the Columbia series) offers a fairly rare element of the supernatural. While the boys are working on a shipment of mostly breakable (and therefore broken) goods from the East for a client (Vernon Dent), Shemp runs across a magic lamp with a real "genius" that grants him his wish of flashy clothing, a gift immediately unwished by a jealous Larry. A good deal of the footage is concerned with two angry Arabs trying to decapitate the infidels. For once, all ends well with the boys getting their wishes fulfilled and Dent (who had given away the lamp) being given a rare chance to stooge an ending all by himself.

"Sing a Song of Sixpence" (1947, number 102) has the boys operating a tailor shop in which a criminal on the lam hides and poses as a tailor's dummy while they strip him down to make a sale. There is the usual series of gags with the cleaning and pressing equipment, including the ray of sunlight on a garment that is mistaken for a spot.

"All Gummed Up" (1947, number 103) will show up again almost in its entirety as "Bubble Trouble" in 1953. Here beautiful Christine McIntyre gets a chance to be really comic as she plays an old wife transformed into a young one, while Emil Sitka does a great turn as her inconsiderate, doddering husband. The mixing of the "youth potion" involves the usual Three Stooges doubletalk but done well in this context. The last fourth of this film should be compared with that of the remake, which is also available in the Columbia collection, titled "Listen, Judge." --Frank Behrens

Great collection. April 6 2002
Format:VHS Tape
THREE ARABIAN NUTS (1951)- An excellent Three Stooges short. The best of these three. The Stooges seem to break more things than ever in this short. Vernon Dent is good in his role here. Moe does particularly well here. I recommend this.

SING A SONG OF SIX PANTS (1947)- Finally, this short is released by Columbia instead of other low-budget companies. The quality is far better than those cheap tapes that are extremely bad quality. This is a great short. A Stooge classic. This could be one of the more violent Stooge shorts, but I think it's okay.

ALL GUMMED UP (1947)- Great short. I've always particularly liked the end gag where gum is mistaken for marshmallows. The Stooges and Christine McIntrye all eat a cake with bubble gum on it. Soon, all four of them are blowing bubbles. I recommend this.

A great Three Stooges tape, well worth adding to your collection.

Three Shorts: ALL GUMMED UP; SING A SONG OF SIX PANTS; and THREE ARABIAN NUTS. Ed Bernds had a hand in the poor direction.
