Uncivil War Birds

Uncivil War Birds is the 90th 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.

filming took place on August 2425, 1945. It is a remake of the 1939 Buster Keaton short Mooching Through Georgia the stock shot of the union lieutenant on horseback with his battalion of eight was borrowed from that film. The song Dixie replaces the Stooges regular opening theme of Three Blind Mice for this film, and continues as background music for approximately twenty seconds into the opening scene.The film was produced after Curly Howard suffered a mild stroke. As a result, his performance was marred by slurred speech, and slower timing, though Curly was more energetic and displayed better timing than in previous shorts. In addition, Moe Howard and Larry Fine are paired together and given the lions share of the films dialogue. ........
