Director: DEL LORD. Screenplay: Ewart Adamson. Photography: George Meehan. Film editor: Charles Nelson. RCA Sound System. Associate producer: Jules White.
Copyright 15 November 1937 by Columbia Pictures Corporation of California. U.S. release: 26 November 1937. 2 reels. 16 minutes.
SYNOPSIS: After successfully staging a sit-down strike in order to win a father's consent to the marriage of his three daughters, the Stooges attempt to build a do-it-yourself house.
NOTES: Number 27 of the 190 short subjects the Stooges made for Columbia.
Marcia Healy was Ted Healy's sister. It was Healy who gave the Stooges their break into vaudeville and then into motion pictures. In fact they were billed as "Ted Healy and His Stooges" and similar variants. This is Miss Healy's only movie appearance.
COMMENT: Some crazy visual gags in this one, especially in the second half of the movie as the boys labor to build a kit house, egged on by their nagging wives. Despite the old-hat subject matter, Del Lord's able direction still manages to wring a fair amount of humor out of the situation. As usual, Curly contributes more than his fair share of the fun.
