Product Details


Product Description

From Amazon.com

Back when the "Blondie" comic strip was very young, Dagwood wanted to marry a flapper against the wishes of his rich family and staged a hunger strike for her sake. This is the basic premise of "The Sitter Downers" (1937, short number 27 in the Columbia series) in which the boys want to marry against a father's wishes and camp out in his living room. The second half is concerned with the now married Stooges trying to build a home for their brides with predictable disastrous results. Very funny at the start, stale material in the second section.

"Nutty but Nice" (1940, number 47) has the boys trying to help a melancholic girl by finding her kidnapped father. It starts interestingly with the boys as a team running a musical restaurant, but it turns to more familiar material as they try to escape from an apartment using the dumbwaiter. (They will never learn not to send Curly down first.) What makes this entry more interesting is that Vernon Dent gets to play a straight, sympathetic part that calls upon him actually to laugh at the Stooges' routines.

"Slippery Silks" (1936, number 19) starts with the boys as "fine" woodworkers--destroying a precious Chinese box brought in by Vernon Dent for reproduction--and then finding they have inherited a gown shop. After they reason that designing furniture and gowns is all the same, the results are truly funny as Larry's cabinet-like creations are displayed by attractive models who play it straight. However, the director (Preston Black) decided that the script needed a good pie throw (or cake throw in this instance) ending, and the last sequence offers nothing new along those lines. --Frank Behrens

5.0 out of 5 stars Another collection of slapstick, May 21 2004
By andy8047 (Nokomis,Florida) - See all my reviews
Moe,Larry and silly Curly are performing their slapstick routines as usual in this collection. In HOI POLLOI,the Stooges are sanitation workers who volunteer to be transformed into "gentlemen". Well,more dignified and sophisticated gentlemen. In NUTTY BUT NICE,the Stooges search for a missing bank cashier whose child daughter is sickened by his disappearance. In A-DUCKING THEY DID GO,the Stooges join a duck-hunting club,which is bogus because it was initiated by swindlers. In THE SITTER-DOWNERS,the Stooges' weddings to their girlfriends are postponed until the Stooges build their fiancees their dreamhouse. In FALSE ALARMS,the Stooges are firemen who steal the captain's new auto. HALF-WITS HOLIDAY,a remake of HOI POLLOI,was Curly's last as a Stooge. He became ill during filming of the last scene. He lived five years and eight months after this film was made. Also,when the Stooges are told to do what the professor's daughter does,Curly applies the lipstick to his lips just like she did. After Moe applies the cosmetic to Curly's tongue,he eats it,entirely! Also that film would be re-used for the following shorts with Shemp(Moe's and Curly's brother who replaced Curly after this film):PEST MAN WINS and SCHEMING SCHEMERS. There was a second re-make entitled PIES AND GUYS with Joe Besser,made after the deaths of Curly and Shemp.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great Stooges DVD, Dec 29 2003
By T O'Brien (Chicago, Il United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Nutty but Nice is a great DVD containing six Stooges shorts, all of them with Curly. "A Ducking They Did Go" has the Stooges selling memberships to a phony duck hunting club with a great ending. "Hoi Polloi" and "Half-Wits Holiday" are virtually the same short as the trio are used to see if environment or heredity determines your social behavior. "Higher Than A Kite" has the Stooges as mechanics who end up hiding in a bomb and landing in a Nazi headquarters. "False Alarms" has Moe, Larry, and Curly as firemen trying to get out of work to meet up with their girls. "Nutty but Nice" has them searching for a little girl's kidnapped father. All six of these shorts are very funny with several classic Stooge routines like AMA, Amalgamated Morons Association, and two classic pie fights. All of the shorts are cleaned up and look great so don't miss Nutty but Nice.
