Punch Drunks


Punch Drunks is the second short subject starring American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges. The trio made 190 shorts for Columbia Pictures between 1934 and 1959.

All goes well until the night of the highly anticipated World Championship match with Killer Kilduff Al Hill. Only a few moments into the first round, Kilduff plants a left hook at Curly, sending him into the crowd, landing on Larry and crushing his violin. Frantic, Larry scurries the streets, looking for anything that is playing Pop Goes the Weasel, while Curly is being battered by the boxer. Larry finds a radio playing the tune, takes it and heads back to the arena. Larry arrives at the arena a few minutes later with the radio. The song ends moments later just as Curly is about to knock out Kilduff. Moe sends Larry back out to find something else playing Pop Goes the Weasel.Larry manages to come across a politicians campaign truck blaring the tune from its speakers and racedrives it to the arena, crashing through a side wall. Curly is just about ready to throw in the towel until he hears Pop Goes the Weasel. The wobbily boxer comes to his feet with renewed energy, and knocks out Kilduff in a matter of seconds, winning the fight. The song continues, however, and as they celebrate in the ring, Curly knocks out Larry and Moe and begins to advance on the camera as the short ends. ........
