    Every time Larry entered a room his line would be, "reminds me of the reform school." When Curly had his stroke back in 1946, it was Larry's idea for the other Stooges to donate 1/3 of their paychecks to Curly, what a magnificent man !

    All the movies, including cameos, all the shorts, including as many of the Ted Healy shorts as still exist.
    The cartoons, and the comic books as well as the movie they did recently.
    Never mind hours, it's DAYS of great fun and laughs.

    It was around this time, somewhere between '72 and '74, when Larry Fine came to my Junior High School to speak at an assembly to all the students that could fit in the General Purpose Hall, as it was known. There were clips of The Three Stooges shown on a screen (to roars of laughter from us students), and Larry talked about their career and answered questions from the kids. The one I remember- and similar to one asked here in this interview- was how real the hitting, slapping, punching etc was when they were filming. Larry answered, "What you see is what we got!" He was very friendly and a number of us were able to go up to meet him briefly at the end. He was a true gentleman.

    It goes to show how soft-spoken this man was. Larry Fine was genuine, a beautiful person, and full of class just like his other comical Three Stooges buddies. I believe that without this man, the Three Stooges would still be very funny, but they wouldn't have that extra "Textbook Larry" image among them. The thought of dying of laughter was an actuality with the Three Stooges, and Larry set the tone with his own antics that made us all laugh really hard, and he literally portrayed in the scope of being the "middle-man" of the classical "Slapstick Mayhem". I dearly miss Larry, and the other Stooges. There will never be another of Larry's like, and the same would be said with Moe, Shemp, and of course, Curly. Joe Derita, and Joe Vesser were funny themselves, but not like all these other men.

    Larry was so funny. I found myself laughing at him almost as much as the Howard brothers in the short films. In the episode “Flatfoot Stooges” where they are fireman, I still laugh everytime Moe says to Curley at the end of the episode after the guy they were after gets away “and just think, I was just about to let him have it like this” and he slaps Curly. Larry then says “I wasn’t looking, like what?” and Moe slaps him too. For some reason I laugh at that every time. 😂

Mr. Sweeney wrote about meeting Larry Fine once or twice at the home and setting up his tv to receive a UHF channel in LA that carried 3 Stooges shorts, and he said that Mr. Fine was very grateful that he could then see his old shorts.

    Love this one. My father worked at the home he was in back in the early 70’s. I met Larry and got some pictures taken with him. Some of my most cherished possessions and memories for sure.
    I think I might have been about 10/11 years old at the time.

    Larry could make some of the funniest faces. This is obviously after Larry had a stroke. I have loved the Stooges all my life.
