Three Missing Links
Three Missing Links is the 33rd 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.
While setting up camp, Curly buys some love candy from a cannibalistic medicine man John Lester Johnson, in hopes of impressing leading lady Mirabel Mirabel Jane Hamilton. Problems arise when Curly dressed as a gorilla gets entangled with a real gorilla, who scares the film crew off the set. The gorilla then turns his attention to Curly, who, in trying to placate the beast, eats some of the love candy and falls in love with it. The gorilla, repulsed, dashes off with a lovestruck Curly in pursuit.This is the fourth of sixteen Stooge shorts to use the word three in the title. Whoever was in the real gorilla suit was clearly having fun with his role. When Moe thinking he is Curly berates him, he shrinks meekly away, and even shudders his shoulders as if on the verge of tears. Later, watching Curly remove the head of his gorilla suit, the real gorilla experiments with trying to take off his own head too. ........
