    • Trivia
      The movie made use of a Sydney landmark in an innovative way. New York's "Coney Island" amusement park used to have an attraction within its grounds called "Luna Park". Sydney's amusement park, "Luna Park", is of similar vintage. It has a still-functioning attraction inside its grounds named "Coney Island". Even though the neon-lit facades of each park's rides are quite different, a temporary staging area was placed in front of Luna Park Sydney's main "face" entrance for night-time filming - and the movie's main characters appear that they are inside New York's amusement park, performing in front of an elaborate "Luna Park" attraction.

      Curly Howard did not suffer his career ending stroke during the filming of a scene of Half-Wits Holiday (1947). It happened while he was offstage waiting for the scene to begin. He didn't respond when called, and Moe found him with his head slumped to his chest, unable to speak.

      Moe Howard: What's the matter?

      Larry Fine: I've got my eyes closed.

    The Stooges were screwed!
    Seeing this ABC TV Movie changed the way I looked at the Stooges. I still found them to be very funny (who didn't?) but this showed how they were really ripped off. Paul Ben-Victor, Evan Handler, Michael Chiklis and Jon Kassir do an excellent job of portraying the famous Stooges. This was a drama about the classic funny men. It really was a sad tv movie with not as much humor as you might expect. On the bright side, the film's ending was on a high note for the Stooges.
