Plot

Much has been made of Moe, Larry and Curly - and rightly so - but Shemp Howard was a comic master too often overlooked, with a solo career that far outshone that of the other Stooges. This long-overdue 2-disc spotlight on Shemp - one of the first and one of the last Stooges and brother of Moe and Curly Howard - contains two early '30s solo Shemp shorts (Henry the Ache, Knife of the Party); a trio of Shemp's Three Stooges shorts (The Brideless Groom, Sing a Song of Six Pants, Malice in the Palace); a live TV Camel Comedy Caravan with Shemp, Larry, and Moe; the complete 1942 feature Private Buckaroo, starring Shemp and The Andrew Sisters; the 1949 feature Africa Screams, starring Abbott & Costello, Shemp, and Joe Besser -- and more, including outtakes from Africa Screams and sequences from the 1935 drama, Convention Girl, in which Shemp plays it straight as a smalltime hood!

DVD Features:
Remembering Shemp - an intimate look at Shemp Howard's life and career featuring exclusive interviews with Shemp's daughter-in-law, Geri Howard Greenbaum; Geri's sister, Diane Silvers; and Shemp's granddaughter, Jill Howard Ullo. These touching and humorous reminiscences include rare, never-before-seen home movies, personal photos, and priceless memorabilia from Geri and Jill, as well as Shemp's second granddaughter (and namesake), Sandie Howard Isaac. A must for fans of the Three Stooges and classic comedy everywhere!
