Crime on their Hands is a classic Three Stooges short, Moe, Larry and Shemp are on the trail of a stolen diamond – until Shemp swallows it!

Loco Boy Makes Good (1942) starring Moe Howard, Larry Fine, Curly Howard

Hold that Lion - Larry, Moe, Shemp and the lion

Three Stooges short film Hold That Lion (1947) starring Moe Howard, Larry Fine, Shemp Howard, Curly Howard

Many people remember Hold That Lion as the only short film where Curly appears along with Moe, Larry and Shemp. Technically, this is true, as Curly has a short cameo appearance as a sleeping man on a train. But I frankly remember it for the “fight scene” in the first half of the short film with Kenneth MacDonald. It’s a very funny Three Stooges short film in its’ own right, and well worth watching.

Uncivil Warriors, starring the Three Stooges - original movie poster

Uncivil Warriors is set during the American Civil War. Moe, Larry and Curly are Northern Secret Service agents Operator 14, 12, and 15 respectively, who are tasked with impersonating three captured Southern officers (Duck, Dodge and Hyde — with a running gag of the Stooges living up to those names), infiltrating the Southern command, and returning with news of the Southern position, strengths and weaknesses. After causing chaos in their own camp, the Stooges are on their way down South.
