So, was Larry Fine really the Keith Richards of the Three Stooges? That's just one of the weighty assertions put forth in this thoughtful bio of the world's greatest troupe of slapstick comedians. Aside from lovingly edited "greatest hits" moments, this A&E production also contains hardcore Stooge material documenting the troupe's early years (under the name Ted Healy and his Stooges), as well as detailing the ever-changing Stooge membership. The video is impressive not only for its breadth of coverage, but also for its depth. Viewers are treated to an ultra-rare glimpse of the early Stooges performing on vaudeville as well as poignant home movies of an aged Curly. But it's not all sugary praise and heart-tugging remembrance; the video points out that the Stooges appropriated much of their act from other performers and, during the early part of the career, weren't really all that popular. Overall, The Three Stooges is a compelling work that puts a touchingly human face on characters most think of as simple, pie-throwing clowns. --S. Duda
Description:
Originally airing on A&E's Biography channel, this extensive documentary goes behind the scenes of the legendary comedy show THE THREE STOOGES. Over two hours of previously-unseen footage offers viewers an insightful look at the private lives of everyone's favorite funnymen. Interviews with family and friends of the stars, outtakes, and backstage material help to paint a revealing portrait of the men who made up the hugely popular comic trio. **NON STANDARD PRICING**

Always sleuthing for "missing links" of Stoogedom, this 2 disc-set brings a smile (and laughs during crystal clear film and audio excerpts).
A true bonanza for Larry Fine afficionados, as Lyla Fine Budnick speaks at length about her Brother, in a most articulate and engaging way.
An insightful, heart-warming life story is the result.
Interviewees such as Larry's Brother-In-Law, and yes, Curly's daughter Janie (!) are sensitived presented. On the original A & E Show, I do not recall ... Read More

This DVD is great in being brief, but descriptive, in the stooges. It follows the development of their act and all the people that made it happen. Perfect for the casual fan looking for an inside story of these bozo's.

This is basically an extended version of the A&E Biography on the boys from some time back. The only difference is that it's now padded out with a lot of great extras. Though they're essentially the same but for the bonus features, it's kind of confusing how reviews for both 'The Men Behind the Mayhem' and the old VHS of the original documentary are showing up on one another's review pages instead of being separated.
I agree that there are very few clips shown, and the only Columbia shorts ... Read More
