Fuelin’ Around

Editorial review of Fuelin’ Around starring The Three Stooges courtesy of Amazon.com

“Fuelin’ Around” (1949, number 116) starts with Larry’s resemblance to Albert Einstein--or at least a scientist (Emil Sitka)--which leads to him, Moe, and Shemp being kidnapped to a European castle, where they must produce rocket fuel or be shot. When the real scientist and his lovely daughter (Christine McIntyre) are brought in, an escape is planned, and some clever use is made of the “rubber dummy” as Shemp is being pulled up through an escape hole in the floor by the baddies and down by Moe and Larry from below. There is also some villainy from regulars Vernon Dent and Philip Van Zandt and good bumbling from Jacques O’Mahoney.

Funny movie quotes from Fuelin’ Around—the Three Stooges (1949)

Larry: Say, did I give you carbolic acid? (I’d love to!)

Moe: (having Shemp help with measuring tape) How many feet you got?
Shemp: (counting his feet) Two!

Larry: What a joint! It reminds me of reform school.

Moe: Top of the morning to you, Captain!
Shemp: And the rest of the day to myself!

Moe: (talking about Larry) You know, he’s the most intelligent imbecile I ever saw.
Shemp: How about me?
Moe: Oh, you’re much smarter. You’re just an imbecile.
