"Women Haters" - Notes of Interest 

Hey, Knuckleheads! Get a Load of This!

This was the sixth entry in Columbia's "Musical Novelty" series, and the whole film is done in rhyme. Jazz-Age style music plays throughout the entire short, with the rhymes spoken in rhythm with the music. The Three Stooges had different names in this short; Curly: Jackie, Moe: Tom, Larry: Jim.

Being the sixth in a "Musical Novelties" short subject series, the movie appropriated its musical score from the first five films. The memorable song "My Life, My Love, My All," featured in this short, was originally "At Last!" from the film Um-Pa.

Co-star Marjorie White [playing Larry's wife] died a year after this short in a car accident.

Bud Jamison's character delivers the first "eye pokes" for which Moe becomes famous. He pokes Larry in the eyes first, followed by Curly. Finally, he delivers an eye poke to Moe, who mistakenly blames Curly and promptly slaps him, igniting the first real Stooge brawl of the short films.

This short includes a young Walter Brennan playing the train conductor being initiated into the Woman Haters club by Moe and Curly.

This is one of the few Stooge shorts that features Larry as the lead character. Others include Three Loan Wolves and He Cooked His Goose.
