The Stooges As Paparazzi

The team of Howard, Fine, and Howard are newspaper photographers assigned to come back with pictures of an eloping celebrity. Curly actually gets the picture, but the devil's in the developing and it almost gets them fired.

But the boss instead gives them an assignment to photograph the Balkan police state country of Vulgaria, reasoning that if he loses the Stooges it won't be much of a loss. It's actually against the law to even possess photographic equipment.

But our Three Stooges go in where folks are fleeing and wind up in all kinds of trouble. This must have been a very popular short back in the day, satirizing as it does police states that were all over Europe in that year.

Curly gets several minutes alone in this short to do the famous burlesque gag which Abbott&Costello did a variation on called Oysters in the Oyster Stew. Curly orders some clam chowder with some really fresh clams in it. His struggle and really violent reaction puts them all in harm's way.

Dutiful But Dumb is worth seeing for that alone.
