An unfortunate transfer.......2006-02-24

Most of you out there might not know that this film was released on video way way back in 1977, under Allied Artists video (Cabaret was also released then.) which went out of business promptly. THIS WAS THE VIDEO TAPE THEY USED FOR THIS RELEASE. The funny thing is, that the transfer I made ( I happen to have the original video tape - in Beta, which was a better format picture quality-wise) looks better- which is sad. I fully expected (at least) a new transfer if not in 35mm (which, I'm sure is quite unobtainable- might not even exist any more in 35mm anyway) but an old 1977 video tape???? I have to quetion this. 5 had to give at least 1 star for people who might say "well, it's better than nothing." Precisely. The film itself is a cute fluff with several good musical numbers. Highlight being Connee Boswell singing STORMY WEATHER.

Great movie, bad picture quality........2005-12-15

This is an excellent movie with the Three Stooges in major supporting roles. This was Curly's last feature. The only problem, at least on my copy, is the picture quality. It is only marginally better than the budget version on Goodtimes. The sound is much better here, however. Also, there are no menus, extras, or special features of any kind. The DVD simply plays from beginning to end like a VHS. The Stooges are their typical corny selves, but the scene near the end with the kid auditioning for a job at the nightclub (no Stooges) is worth the price alone!!!!

Stale Stooges.......2005-11-19

The enduring popularity of The Three Stooges is directly attributable to the 190 comedy shorts the team made for Columbia Pictures (1934-1959), particularly the 97 entries featuring Curly Howard as the third Stooge. While several of these classic comedies are available on DVD, a few non-Columbia Stooge curios have turned up, including this title.

SWING PARADE OF 1946 is a low-budget musical produced by the lowly Monogram Pictures, starring Gale Storm and Phil Regan, with Moe, Larry and Curly providing comedy relief. Away from their home studio, the boys seem to be a little disoriented; worse yet, Curly is clearly in declining health (later that year he suffered a stroke that forced him to drop out of the act). Rabid Stooge fans may want to check this one out, although it's nowhere near the level of their best work. Casual viewers in search of the usual boisterous antics are advised to look elsewhere.
