IMDb profile

The Big Idea (1934) is a short subject live action film released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer starring Ted Healy, Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly Howard.

This is one of the last films in which the Three Stooges appeared with their long time partner, Ted Healy. The Big Idea was edited from footage of Healy and the Stooges filmed for the unfinished MGM variety film The March of Time (1930), which later became the title of a long-running newsreel series. By the time of the release of The Big Idea, the Three Stooges had signed a new contract with Columbia Pictures to do a series of comedy short films without Healy.
