Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

ccthemovieman-1 Yikes - Moe, Larry and Shemp play themselves AND their finances, "Moella," "Larraine," and "Shempetta." You can easily identify the last two but Moe did a good job (and is the ugliest woman ever!). I wouldn't have known it was him. Moe plays a third role - the "girls" father, in which he actually looks very distinguished with a normal hairstyle. However, twice he was in the same scene and he spoke with his lips not moving! The costume and makeup department worked overtime on this picture but Columbia Picturs saved money as the Three Stooges were the only actors in the movie.They also played Scottish bagpipers and newly-born babies and maybe an outfit or two I forgot.....Also, there was a good "I'm mortified" Jimmy Durante impression, done by Larry The boys are French artists but not exactly Monets. For instance, Shemp paints upside down paintings. The "girls" pose for them despite having ants all over them! There is lots of kissing, holding hands, and hugging here - a little too much considering it's all just between the Stooges!

slymusic "Self Made Maids" is not the greatest Three Stooges comedy ever made, but I think we can all agree that the neatest thing about it is the fact that the boys play all parts in the film. (Boy, are those women ugly!) The following are the most memorable sequences from "Self Made Maids." The final shot of the baby Stooges is perhaps the funniest bit in the film. There are a couple of amusing gags during the chase sequence, particularly when the Stooges disguise themselves as Scotsmen imitating bagpipes and when they trip over their own bench trap. While posing for their portraits, the Stooges' girlfriends (Moella, Larraine, and Shempetta) cannot stop scratching themselves because their flowers are full of bugs; the camera then pans to an already finished painting, on which the subjects (played by Shemp and Larry) briefly scratch themselves as well! And lest we forget the song originated in "Wee Wee Monseiur" (1938) and "Nutty but Nice" (1940), "Zee lollipop, zee lollipop, zee lo-lo-lo-lollipop! (Woo woo!)"

angus_dei Give the Stooges credit: they weren't afraid to experiment. Imagine, portraying their own girlfriends! They did a clever job, and did not have to rely on camera trickery (Columbia's shorts department would not have provided them with sufficient funds to do so, anyway). The Stooges did a little "mix'n'match," but to be honest, I can't remember who was paired with whom. Let's see, was Moe Shempetta's boyfriend? Well, anyway, the Stooges weren't exactly attractive women, but they did have a sort of home-spun innocent charm. Now there's a triple marriage I would have absolutely loved to see. Too bad the ladies' old man is dead set against it, and perhaps you can't blame the guy. Now I love Moe, but three roles were just too many. I think Vernon Dent would have been great as the girls' father, but, what the hell, Moe still works. I think after this short was made, the world witnessed a spate of occurrences where prospective bridegrooms tickled their intended spouses' father into submission to procure his permission to marry his daughter. This was about 1950, right? Remember that famous case in Tunisia? Those Stooges, they were innovators, years ahead of their time. Just watch this surreal film, and you will agree.

Movie Nuttball The Three Stooges has always been some of the many actors that I have loved. I love just about every one of the shorts that they have made. I love all six of the Stooges (Curly, Shemp, Moe, Larry, Joe, and Curly Joe)! All of the shorts are hilarious and also star many other great actors and actresses which a lot of them was in many of the shorts! In My opinion The Three Stooges is some of the greatest actors ever and is the all time funniest comedy team! I think this Three Stooges Short with Shemp is really good. The Stooges put on very good performances as not only their characters but also their love interests! Also Moe plays the girls' father as well greatly. Many funny things happen here. I recommend this Three Stooges short!
