About Film

These rare glimpses of Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly-Joe DeRita in color were shot in 1965 as live-action scenes for The New Three Stooges cartoon, representing the team at the peak of its popularity. While cleaning a musty mansion, they discover a suit of armor that appears to be inhabited and Moe matches wits withs a checker-playing chimp (we won't tell you who wins) as the boys play zany zookeepers. They wreak havoc open a golf course, the open road, a fishing boat, a camping trip, an airport scale and the beach, and as perplexed paperhangers, foolish photographers, short-tempered chefs and dim-bulb doctors.
