Nertsery Rhymes (1933) is the first short film starring Ted Healy and his Stooges. It was a musical comedy released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The original script was eight pages long. Some footage was from the unfinished MGM musical The March of Time (1930), which was to feature Healy and the Three Stooges.
[edit] Plot
The Stooges are children and Ted Healy is the father. Unable to sleep, the Stooges ask Healy to tell them a bedtime story. He proceeds to tell them of the "Ride of Paul Revere" as well as the "The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe". Briefly veering away from the slapstick, there are two musical interludes pertaining to the stories.
