The Three Stooges defied nearly every law of show business there
was. In a career that spanned forty years, they made more than two
hundred films, entertained generations of fans, and ultimately
became an integral part of American popular culture. One Fine
Stooge, the poignant life story of Larry Fine—the frizzy-haired
member of the classic comedy offers a behind-the-scenes look at
these manic high priests of low comedy. Discovered and dusted
off thirty yers after Larry Fine's death, his personal notes,
clippings, interviews, and career memorabilia provide a portrait of
his life and the lives of the other Stooges. The result is an
unparalleled visual history of the most prolific comedy trio in
entertainment annals. Like them or not, the Three Stooges remain
unique motion picture icons of the greatest renown. This is their
story as revealed by Larry, in his own words, augmented by
fascinating anecdotes from family members and friends. Behind his
comic mask was a life that blended fame and fortune, bad luck and
tragedy. This tumultuous trip through Larry Fine's years in film is
based on his memoirs, now published for the first time, along with
his astonishing collection of rare photographs—including fifty
images in full color.
