My favorite Stooge "gluttony moment", is when Larry is caught putting an
entire turkey on his plate at the buffet.
Moe: Are you gonna eat that ALONE?
Larry: Nah, I'll wait. Maybe I'll get something else/potatoes to go
with it!!
On a similar "Thanksgiving flashback moment", have any of you noticed
the somewhat awkward dialogue from Moe, when he's "dressing down"
(sorry, pun intended) Larry for sampling the bird?
Moe says something to the effect of "Are you insane? That turkey
belongs to those people, and if I ever see....... or catch you doing
anything like that, I"LL gouge your eyes out." Moe utters a couple of
other similar lines after that. His character is obviously stalling for
time, to allow the parrot to climb into the turkey, but Moe's delivery
seems somewhat forced, and obviously ad-libbed. Don't know if it's just
me, but I recall thinking that dialogue seemed awkward, even in my
youth; when I first began watching the boys.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Have a safe Holiday!
