This was an interesting film that sadly merely skimmed through everything that happened after the Stooges became successful. I wanted more of Shemp, the most interesting character.
Very harsh portrayal of Joe in the film--you can tell the filmmakers weren't keen on him, and Curly-Joe gets a warm portrayal, as a guy that obviously isn't Curly's equal (or Shemp's) but realizes this.
BENN!!! ... go to Blockbuster Video (or any other nearby convenient rental place) and rent the 1965 movie The Outlaws is Coming! starring The Three Stooges, Adam West and Nancy Kovack. I found out that BILL CAMFIELD (aka - Icky Twerp!) is one of the gang of bad guys in this movie! See if you can spot him! (also look for a YOUNG Henry Gibson as an indian!)
Yeah, I've heard he was in one of their movies. I'll have to check it out. And if you're interested Derf, here's a link to a Slam Bang Theater website: http://home.texoma.net/~kgreg/sbt_hist.html
Seems Icky's son is selling videos of Slam Bang Theater. I haven't looked into it yet. But you can bet I will.
Okay, dude ... I'll, give you the scoop. Bill Camfield plays the part of Wyatt Earp ... (his "skinny version" of a Peter Lorre "look" is hard to miss)
Besides ... I'll be sleeping with HIM if Paul Camfield comes through for me!! (He also sells t-shirts! besides videos)
BTW, I believe Paul lives in Fredricksburg, TX (due to his return e-mail address) ... however, it could be only his "selling-point" address [and he actually lives in {maybe} Bogata?]
I'll have to look at Paul's site. I only noted that he had videos for sell. I wonder how far back they go?
You'll be sleeping with whom?!
Their films were all fun,but my fav will always be when they met Hercules.
