#13 - MOVIE MANIACS (1936)

Postby Lunkhead on July 31st, 2005, 9:46 pm

Image Image
Short #13 features the boys wanting to hit it big in pictures. They hop a train headed for Hollywood and upon arrival, are mistakenly given complete reign over a movie studio. Madness begins as they take over a romantic production.

Two scenes are usually missing from this short - the kissing demonstration and when Curly and Larry handle actors as puppets. The scenes were considered a bit risqué when the shorts were first released to television, and the cuts remained through the years due to certain prints. The version I viewed was from Comcast Cable's On Demand feature and I was pleased to finally see these scenes. Curly doing his finger snaps from behind the actress is hysterical, as well as his passing out after a major smooch.

MOVIE MANIACS has really grown on me. It has many great lines and moments, such as Curly's ever-growing pencil and the puppets bit. Now that I've finally seen what I believe is the unedited version, I appreciate it even more.

"You wouldn't hit me like that if I were Gable." ~ :curly1:

"Na, I'd hit you like this." ~ :moe1: SMACK!!

"Oh, Mutiny in the boxcar!" ~ :curly1:

*********************************************************************

"We don't know anything about making pictures." ~ :curly1:

"There's a couple thousand people in pictures now know nuthin about it. Three more won't make any difference." ~ :moe1:

*********************************************************************

"If at first you don't succeed, keep on suckin til ya do suck seed!" ~ :curly1:

=====================================================

After coming upon studio, "CARNATION PICTURES FROM CONTENTED ACTORS",
the stooges are quickly put in charge.

Looking important

Image
Woo! Woo! Woo!

Image Image
Under Moe's orders, Larry & Curly try to show these puppets how to put
action behind their words.

Image
The replacements :laugh1:

"They don't appreciate our kind of genius."

Exit stage right, unfortunately right into a lion's den!

the cuts

Postby Lunkhead on August 1st, 2005, 6:20 pm

It's kind of strange. Depends on the particular print. The scene where the boys try to demonstrate a proper kiss with the girl extras is one. The other is when Larry and Curly have their hands behind the actor and actress working them like puppets. Curly sticks a bill in the top of the actress' dress. The scenes aren't daring at all today, but back when the shorts premiered on TV in the late '50s, those 2 scenes were cut from a collection of prints because they were deemed inappropriate for children. When I saw the short on AMC, it was one of those prints which are still in circulation. Now the one I got from Comcast's On Demand Stooges included the 2 scenes. It's hit or miss which version turns up.

Well folks, you just wouldn't believe it!

Spike TV just aired Movie Maniacs today!

That scene is where Larry pulls the money from the actors pocket hands it to Curly, he folds it and sticks it into the actress' blouse. It looked like it went further than just the blouse but I didn't say that.

Curly,,,,"Cetainly, I'm sound asleep."
Moe,,,,"Then why are you talking?"
Curly,,,,"I'm talking in my sleep!" bonk ouch

Fuller Rath,,,,"See that they have everything that they need."
Assistant,,,,"I'll order three blonde secretaries."

Larry,,,,"A bad ending is a good beginning."

Gentleman,,,,,"I quit".
Moe,,,,"You can't quit"
Gentleman,,,,,"And why not?!"
Moe,,,,,"Because you're fired"!
Curly,,,,"You can't fire him"
Moe,,,,,"And why not?!"
Curly,,,,,"He quit"!

This short isn't one of my favorites but it sure had alot of great lines in it.

Isn't this the short where Moe says to the "director" ,..."Swinehart , Pillhart, Fillhart. Who cares !! We'll make it like that." ? I'm not sure my quote is exactly correct , as I have not seen this one in a long time.

That's the one. The quote is pretty close, but after checking it, it sounds like Moe says, "Sweinhardt , big heart, pig heart, heartburn... Who cares?! We'll make it like that." That's if I'm hearing it right.
