The Three Stooges
All pain. No brain.
Directed by Peter Farrelly, Bobby Farrelly
Produced by Wessler Entertainment, 20th Century Fox
A high-energy, slapstick comedy rooted in physical humor and childlike mischief, driven by the warm bond between three orphans trying to save their home.
Left on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns, three newborn knuckleheads grow up to be finger-poking, nyuk-nyuking janitors named Larry, Curly and Moe. When they learn that financial problems will soon force the only home they've ever known to close, the trio sets out to raise $830,000 in one month. Out in the world for the very first time, the three innocent bumblers become embroiled in a murder plot and find stardom on a TV reality show.
