Director: CHARLES LAMONT. Original story and screenplay: Felix Adler. Film editor: William A. Lyon. Photography: Benjamin H. Kline. Producer: Jules White.
Copyright 18 February 1935 by Columbia Pictures Corporation. U.S. release: 20 February 1935. 2 reels. 17 minutes.
SYNOPSIS: The Stooges discover they are noblemen and like The Three Musketeers, they set off to aid their queen.
COMMENT: At first, Felix Adler's story promises a spoof of such films as "When Knighthood Was In Flower", but unfortunately it doesn't work out that way. Although the cast line-up is especially strong, what we actually get are a few bright quips interspersed with a lot (and I mean a real, real lot!) of ho-hum knockabout.
