A Missed Fortune
A Missed Fortune is the 137th short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made a total of 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959.
Just then, three attractive gold diggers Nanette Bordeaux, Vivian Mason, Suzanne Ridgeway, who are also guests at the hotel, connive their way into the boys room. After twice being accidentally drenched with ice water thrown by the boys, the girls hit the stooges over the head with champagne bottles.A Missed Fortune is a remake of 1938s Healthy, Wealthy and Dumb, using minimal stock footage. When Shemp falls onto the top of the bed, the footage is actually Curly borrowed from Healthy, Wealthy and Dumb Curly can be heard yelling during the fall. Additionally, Larry taking a bath as well as the closeup of Moe yelling Get this Henry the VIII off my neck is also stock. A slight inconsistency can be noted, as the pattern on the wood changes from shot to shot. The glue Moe accidentally pours onto his hotcakes, Stik Fast Glue, is the same product Curly writes a slogan for in Healthy, Wealthy and Dumb. ........
