The Three Stooges
Left on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns, three newborn knuckleheads grow up to be finger-poking, nyuk-nyuking janitors named Larry, Curly and Moe. When they learn that financial problems will soon force the only home they've ever known to close, the trio sets out to raise $830,000 in one month. Out in the world for the very first time, the three innocent bumblers become embroiled in a murder plot and find stardom on a TV reality show.
From the archive
"Beer Barrel Polecats" (1946) Moe, Larry, and Curly pose as beer salesmen but accidentally get tangled up in a case of mistaken identity. Their antics lead to chaos when they are mistaken for fugitives by the police. As usual, slapstick mayhem ensues, with Curly’s antics and the trio’s bumbling causing hilariously disastrous results. Colorized and digitally enhanced as God intended.
