One of the "top" Shemp films w/ several hilarious scenes!

This particular Shemp film is one of my favorites. One of the funniest scenes is when Shemp is hiding under a bed and trying to keep quiet while a baby alligator crawls up his leg. The timing is great throughout and the old stooge chemistry is there. At a point when the Stooges quality had begun to fade, this episode captures the old magic. Check it out!

Shemp at his worst.

HULA-LA-LA is the worst Shemp short I've seen so far. I don't like the plot on this one. There's only one funny line in the whole short. If you want an African stooge short, watch THREE MISSING LINKS or SOME MORE OF SAMOA.

* out of 4 stars.

white natives with Shemp Stooges

Larry, Moe, and Shemp are dance instructors at B. O. Pictures Corp. The studio is in trouble and the boss had bought a South Pacific island. He imagines dancing natives, but they have never heard of dancing. He sends the Three Stooges to teach the natives how to dance. At first, native Witch Doctor Varanu seems to be treating them exceptionally well, but he reveals that he only wants their shrunken heads.

This is fine as a Three Stooges short, but something really bugs me. They have two white people playing the two lead native characters. It's weird. It's a sign of the times. It's also like a neon sign blinking in my face. It took most of the enjoyment out of the short.

Anecdotes
The standard "3 Blind Mice" theme is replaced on the ending fadeout with the hula composition "Lu-Lu," composed by Ross DiMaggio and Nico Grigor.

Gaffes
Villain Kenneth McDonald introduces himself as "Varnu, Witch Doctor of this tribe". However in a subsequent scene, the Stooges are told by one of the native girls that his name is "Varulu".

Citations
Moe: These girls have their andaleys mixed up with their pirouettes, & their fortissimos mixed up with the allegrettos.
Shemp: Yeah, but what's wrong with their dancin'?
