The Three Stooges (Pop Culture Legends),
By A Customer
This review is from: The Three Stooges (Pop Culture Legends) (Paperback)
A quick, but sparse reading of the history of the legendary comedy team. The facts contained are not new to fans. However, those seeking a brief introduction to the beginnings of the Stooges and their work will find this to be a good start. The book appears to be part of a series of books about pop culture legends. This, however, is misleading since this book fails to show what social and economical factors lead to the popularity of the Stooges and why it has endured for 70 years since their first screen appearance. While it is true that much of the Stooges' success today is due to their exposure on television, still any insight as to why movie goers of the 30's and 40's, seeking to escape the days of Depression and World War, and generations from the 60's through the 90's, still identify with The Three Stooges.
