The Three Stooges in Swing Parade (1946)
Technically, Swing Parade isn’t a Three Stooges movie. Yes, the Three Stooges (Moe, Larry and Curly) are in the movie, and they appear as the Three Stooges—but they’re secondary characters. The main plot concerns a young nightclub owner whose father wants him to shut down the nightclub and run the family business instead. However, the nightclub owner is determined to succeed, and even hires his pals the Three Stooges as waiters (see? they’re in here—and they tend to steal every scene that they’re in). The father hires a down-on-her-luck young lady to deliver the legal papers to shut down the nightclub, but instead she falls for the nightclub owner, and eventually gets hired by him as a singer (this is a musical, after all)—and the conflict grows from there.
If you’re a fan of old-time musicals like I am, or if you’re a fan of the Stooges, it’s a film you’ll want to see.

Three Stooges are at their bumbling, eye-poking, hair-pulling best in this warm, hilarious, musical romp! This time around “The Boys” must protect talented nightclub owner Danny Warren (Phil Regan) from the schemes of his powerful and overprotective father—who will go to any lengths to shut him down. Can Moe, Larry and Curly run the club, manage Danny’s budding love life, and avoid the wrath of Moose, their cantankerous boss?
