Hollywood On Parade No. B-9

Songwriters Mack Gordon and Harry Revel mingle on a soundstage's nightclub set with various celebrities, while bartender Ben Turpin provides refreshments. Numerous sources list this short incorrectly as being from 1932, and Curly's 1st on-screen appearance. This short was released on March 30, 1934, and was the Stooges' final on-screen appearances with Ted Healy. The tavern setting with everyone drinking beer and celebrating the repeal of Prohibition shows that this was filmed sometime after December 5, 1933, the passage date of the 21st Amendment to the Constitution. In the early days of television, Paramount sold its 1932 - 1934 HOLLYWOOD ON PARADE series, 26 one-reel shorts, to a syndicator called Criterion. Criterion placed its own company credit in the opening titles, and recycled that same revised opening title credit on all 26 shorts. Hence, the source of the erroneous 1932 copyright notice that appears on this short. The short's B-9 sub-title refers to the 9th release of the second release season (1933 - 1934).
