Synopsis

In this below-average two-reel comedy, The Three Stooges, disguised as the Wrong Brothers, attempt to aid the war effort by inventing a new plane. Their real motivation, however, is to avoid the draft. When their plane, the Buzzard, fails completely, they are forced to enlist. Richard Fiske, who had previously appeared in supporting roles in Stooges comedies, makes an appearance through stock footage borrowed from the earlier film Boobs in Arms (1940). Fiske had been drafted in real life and was killed in action in France in August 1944.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 14

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
