Watch Goofs and Saddles For Free

Thanks for the memories!

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The boys are part of the cavalry and find themselves sent off to put down some rustlers. Of course, they are considered and elite fighting force. They bumble their way along until they are in danger. Of course they seem to come out on top not matter what happens. There is a great battle scene at the end. Much more creative and imaginative than most of these.

This is an almost 80-year-old 17-minute short film featuring Curly, Larry and Moe, the 3 most famous Stooges. However, here they are actually credited with other names, namely the names of their Buffalo Bill references Wild West characters, which is not too common for their films. The Stooges were all in their 30s when this was made and already pretty big stars. It's also obvious that Curly is the star at this point from the trio as he has basically all the really funny scenes. The director is Del Lord and the writer is Felix Adler. These two worked with the Stooges on uncountable occasions. It's a black-and-white film, like most of the Stooges' works and shows us how the trio runs into a gang of crooks in the Wild West. Lots of shooting going on, but as the Stooges are entirely comedy, nobody gets hurt. The funniest scene was maybe the card game, but the rest did not do too much for me and even if this is one of the Stooges' more famous film, I found it disappointing all in all. Not recommended.

"Goofs and Saddles" is one of the best comedy Westerns the Stooges ever made. Sporting long hair at the beginning of this short, the boys are scouts for the U.S. Cavalry, bearing the names Buffalow Billious (Curly), Wild Bill Hicup (Moe), and Just Plain Bill (Larry). They are assigned by General Muster (Ted Lorch) to wipe out a notorious gang of cattle rustlers headed by Longhorn Pete (Stanley Blystone), and by the end of the short, they succeed as only the Stooges could.Highlights from "Goofs and Saddles" include the following (don't read any further until after you have seen this film). In response to their scout call, the Stooges jump out of a tree and make a hilarious crash. The boys don't get very far in their bush disguises, but Just Plain Bill has a little fun in preventing an outlaw from chopping up some of the boys' shrubbery for a fire. Posing as gamblers, the Stooges try to swindle Longhorn Pete by cheating in a poker game. Once Pete realizes that the Stooges are cavalry scouts, an exciting chase occurs as the boys make a run for it in a covered wagon.To sum up, "Goofs and Saddles" is a fun comedy Western with plenty of shoot-'em-up action & slapstick. Bravo not only to the Stooges but also to Stanley Blystone, who gives a terrific portrayal of Longhorn Pete, the most menacing cattle rustler of the Bad Lands. Blystone would continue to be a familiar Three Stooges foil for years to come.

One of their best shorts ever. The boys are spies called in to round up a team of cattle rustlers. There is one great gag after another in this really fast moving short. A card game with the boss of the rustlers is a particular highlight. A great short the shows how funny and often underrated the Stooges are!
