    Storyline

    • Trivia
      "Niagara Falls" actually was filmed one year earlier for the Columbia feature Good Luck, Mr. Yates (1943). Cut from the final release version of that film, Jules White retained the footage and built this film around it.
    • Goofs
      During the "Niagara Falls" skit in front of the shipyard workers, Larry blows his line. The skit is supposed to start off with, "Slowly I turned, step by step, inch by inch", but Larry says "inch by inch" as the second line instead of "step by step", as Moe does.
    • Quotes

      [After Curly says Niagara Falls]

      Moe: Niagara Falls! Slowly I turn... step by step... inch by inch...

    • Connections
      Edited from Good Luck, Mr. Yates (1943)

    The Stooges and their girls
    Moe, Larry, and Curly are three struggling performers. There is a ruckus coming from the apartment above them. They find three beautiful dancers named Flo, Mary, and Shirley. The guys are given a chance in a revue. When the rest of acts fail to show up, they and the girls fill the time with acts of their own.

    The Stooges are the Stooges. The girls' acrobatic jump roping is fun but it would be more fun to include the Stooges. The problem is that girls are very white bread like one of those singing groups. They're not given much of a chance to show any charisma. This is fine Stooges as any with a vibrant Curly can't help but be a good Stooges film.
