  • Before he rejoined the Three Stooges team in 1947, Shemp Howard had his own solo 2-reeler comedy series at Columbia Pictures. This 1945 release doesn't have much of a story...inventor Tom Kennedy moves next door to 'human horsefly' Shemp, who proceeds to make his life miserable in a series of wacky slapstick encounters. If you like Shemp you'll like this flick, because it's all Shemp from start to finish! He's clearly having a good time here and who wouldn't, getting to work alongside babes like Christine McIntyre and Rebel Randall. I especially like the Jonathan Winters-like vocal sound effects Shemp emits at a couple of points. Produced at the Hugh McCollum unit, directed by Harry Edwards, co-written by Ed Bernds.

    I think Shemp Howard is the most underrated funny man of all time. He was hilarious.

    Love this episode with Shemp. He caused more havoc alone, then along side with Moe and Larry. I can't imagine how funny the stooges would've been if it was Moe, Shemp, Curly, and Larry. Or just the three brothers together.

      Andrew Martinez, I've thought the same thing for years. What if it was Four Stooges? The best answer I could come up with is it would have been too congested. Curly and Shemp would be competing for attention. Moe and Larry would fade into the background.

    I believe Christine and Shemp just had the best chemistry of all time for the Stooges and for anything they did together.
    Such a perfect paring right up there with Fred and Ginger.

    Just give Shemp a set full of assorted props to play around with and his flip comments alone about each one of them would make a riotously funny short comedy...I could visualize him picking up an all-purpose tool and saying with his distinctive Brooklynese nasal grunt, "What do ya do with this cockeyed thing? I can't tell whether its comin' or going."...

    There should be a doc. movie behind this man.
    Admittedly, growing up, Shemp was #2 behind Curly. But growing up and seeing more raw Shemp and his solo acts, you could see a more comfortable body. Maybe indused to his high level of anxiety and etc.
    Not putting negative light at all, but for me personally a more interest in the phychy of his methods.
    But without divulging into the deep, this is a lost classic and appreciated.

    Christine McIntyre actually broke Shemp's nose while filming. It was the Stooges episode where Shemp needs to get married in order in order collect an inheritance (this one was re-done with a slightly different story line...).
    The scene where she cracks him after discovering Shemp is not really her cousin Basil, know the one ?...
    She actually connected after having missed him the 1st few attempts & the footage wasn't sufficient enough to keep, the director decided. Shemp assured her to come in closer on the punch & the director assured her it'd be fine. She felt terrible and Shemp downplayed it, but yeah, his nose was gushing blood & was in fact broken. Whatever the title of the episode, I forget, there is an entry about this incident on Wikipedia.... wish I could remember for your sake.

    In real life, Shemp probably wouldn't be nears to a dog because he was afraid of dogs and would carry a walking stick for protection from them. Unlike his younger brother, Curly who likes dogs a lot.

    Shemp was all Three Stooges rolled into one. He was the second oldest of the Howard brothers , and was smart enough to be the first one to exit away from Ted Healey, and go on his own. Christine of course was beautiful , however Rebel Randall ( Shemp's wife ) was serious eye candy. The studio tried to play this as a blond against brunette episode. In my eyes , the brunette won. Gosh what a woman. Tall , brunette , and just all around a babe ! The problem with her off screen , is she was married three times and none of her marriages lasted more than one year. A couple of them , only a couple of months. If you read her Bio online , every producer , director , and actor, wanted to " get their hands on her " which they did. Sad story but true. I live in this town and work in it. " Hollywood " can be a great or disastrous place, depending on your perspective or values...

    • @kevinmiller6380
      @kevinmiller6380 2 года назад

      Br A-Shemp was the oldest of the three Howard brothers. Actually, Irving was the first born, but he never entered show biz, and was dead when this short was filmed. Brother Jack was next, but he, too, never entered show biz, selling insurance instead. After Shemp died, there were no more Howard brothers to turn to.

    That first fall, about 2 minutes in, is the most blatant and obvious stuntman double in the history. It's so obviously not Shemp, and the guy's face is wonderful! What stoogery. Japes!!

    Director Harry Edwards didn't appear to have any sense of timing or pacing...No wonder the Stooges regarded him as their least favorite director and ended up working with him only twice (on Matri-Phony and Three Little Twirps)...The sole saving grace of this short is Shemp just being himself and all the more funny because of it...
