The Three Stooges defied nearly every law of show business there was. In a career that spanned forty years, they made more than two hundred films, entertained generations of fans, and ultimately became an integral part of American popular culture. One Fine Stooge, the poignant life story of Larry Fine—the frizzy-haired member of the classic comedy offers a behind-the-scenes look at these manic high priests of low comedy. Discovered and dusted off thirty yers after Larry Fine's death, his personal notes, clippings, interviews, and career memorabilia provide a portrait of his life and the lives of the other Stooges. The result is an unparalleled visual history of the most prolific comedy trio in entertainment annals.Like them or not, the Three Stooges remain unique motion picture icons of the greatest renown. This is their story as revealed by Larry, in his own words, augmented by fascinating anecdotes from family members and friends. Behind his comic mask was a life that blended fame and fortune, bad luck and tragedy. This tumultuous trip through Larry Fine's years in film is based on his memoirs, now published for the first time, along with his astonishing collection of rare photographs—including fifty images in full color.
