"Healthy, Wealthy and Dumb" is a Three Stooges short film that will have its 80th anniversary in 2 years from now, so it was made briefly before the outbreak of World War II and they are still unpolitical in this one. Curly wins the great prize and the trio meets three young and beautiful woman. But it wouldn't be the Stooges if things really were that golden and shiny. This one is in black-and-white as usual and runs for 16.5 minutes, also as usual with these Stooges short films. I have seen many of their works and many I did not like because sometimes their humour and slapstick comedy (especially Curly's) is just over the top and not really funny, but this one here has a couple good moments, for example Moe destroying the vase was pretty hilarious. Always nice to see him deliver funny stuff too that goes beyond punching the other too. Like I already said, Curly is in here, so this is one of their earlier works. And also one of their better, I believe. Thumbs up.
