Have Rocket, Will Travel
Have Rocket, Will Travel is a 1959 American science fiction comedy film starring The Three Stooges. By this time, the trio consisted of Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and new third Stooge Joe DeRita dubbed Curly Joe. Released by Columbia Pictures, the feature was produced to capitalize on the comedy trios late 1950s resurgence in popularity.
Have Rocket, Will Travel was Joe DeRitas inaugural screen appearance with the Stooges, having replaced Joe Besser after Columbia ceased production of the Stooges shorts series. The title is a parody of the thenpopular television show Have Gun, Will Travel, and its soundtrack featured songs such as Swinging the Alphabet and Aba Daba Honeymoon.Although billed as such, it was not the first starring feature for The Three Stooges. That honor goes to Rockin in the Rockies, the only starring feature made with the best known lineup of Moe, Larry and Curly. The trio had also starred in a 1951 film called Gold Raiders during the Shemp Howard era, and had also had supporting roles in several 1930s films when the trio was still affiliated with Ted Healy, including Dancing Lady with Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Robert Benchley and Fred Astaire. ........
