Soup to Nuts is an American Pre-Code feature film written by Rube Goldberg and directed by Benjamin Stoloff, which marks the film debut of the original four members who would later, minus Ted Healy, go on to become known as The Three Stooges comic trio. Goldberg made a cameo appearance in the film as himself, opening letters in a restaurant.

The Stooges are children and Ted Healy is the father. Unable to sleep, the Stooges ask Healy to tell them a bedtime story. He proceeds to tell them of the "Ride of Paul Revere" as well as the "The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe". Briefly veering away from the slapstick, there are two musical interludes pertaining to the stories.

Turn Back the Clock is a 1933 American Pre-Code MGM comedy-drama film directed by Edgar Selwyn, written by Edgar Selwyn and Ben Hecht, and starring Mae Clarke and Lee Tracy (while under contract to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer). The film also stars Mae Clarke. The Three Stooges featuring Curly Howard appear in an uncredited straight role as wedding singers.

Unable to keep a job anywhere else, they are reduced to waiting tables at a high-class restaurant. This, of course, ends up being a disaster as the restaurant is thrown into chaos because of them. So, yet again, they are thrown back out on to the streets.

Broadway to Hollywood is a 1933 American Pre-Code musical film directed by Willard Mack, produced by Harry Rapf, cinematography by Norbert Brodine and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The film features many of MGM's stars of the time, including Frank Morgan, Alice Brady, May Robson, Madge Evans, Jimmy Durante, Mickey Rooney, and Jackie Cooper.

The bumbling recuits are soon banished to the recruits' center, where they mistakenly give a reluctant haircut and shave to a visiting European naval dignitary. Again banished, this time to garbage detail, the boys encounter the dignitary once more, but unknown to them, he's actually a foreign spy.

A theater producer (Healy) is trying to stage an elaborate musical revue. His efforts are constantly interrupted by demanding back stage personalities: a flaky musician (Henry Armetta), a woman who keeps try to ask him something (Bonnie Bonnell), and his raucous sons (the Stooges in children's costumes). He is able to get the show ready for presentation, but during the main number, the Three Stooges slip beneath the enormous hoopskirt costume worn by the leading vocalist. They emerge on stage during the performance, ruining the show.

The film is about a frustrated vaudeville performer who pushes her daughter into becoming a star dancer; selfishness, deceit and blackmail drive mother and daughter apart until a reconciliation at the end of the film. The film's screenplay was written by John Meehan, based on the 1933 novel Stage Mother by Bradford Ropes.

Ted Healy and His Stooges alternate mildly risque vaudeville routines with semi-elaborate Berkeleyesque musical numbers with beautiful chorines.

While giving a speech at a college, the "Baron" falls for a pretty girl, gets tangled up with a trio of nutty janitors and faces being exposed as a phony.

The three are delighted to be told they've made a sale, but the producers turn out to have a surprise in store

Songwriters Mack Gordon and Harry Revel mingle on a soundstage's nightclub set with various celebrities, while bartender Ben Turpin provides refreshments. Numerous sources list this short incorrectly as being from 1932, and Curly's 1st on-screen appearance. This short was released on March 30, 1934, and was the Stooges' final on-screen appearances with Ted Healy. The tavern setting with everyone drinking beer and celebrating the repeal of Prohibition shows that this was filmed sometime after December 5, 1933, the passage date of the 21st Amendment to the Constitution. In the early days of television, Paramount sold its 1932 - 1934 HOLLYWOOD ON PARADE series, 26 one-reel shorts, to a syndicator called Criterion. Criterion placed its own company credit in the opening titles, and recycled that same revised opening title credit on all 26 shorts. Hence, the source of the erroneous 1932 copyright notice that appears on this short. The short's B-9 sub-title refers to the 9th release of the second release season (1933 - 1934).

Two hobos try to make a dishonest buck by selling axle grease as 'Happy Foot Salve', a corn remover. They soon cross paths with a cop, and circumstances have them mistaken by the cop's wife as his visiting nephews.

Like other shorts Healy and the Stooges filmed at MGM, stock footage was utilized to fill out the 20 minutes of time. For The Big Idea, MGM used musical numbers edited out of the feature film Dancing Lady, which ironically had a supporting role by Healy and a cameo by the Stooges. This is one of the last films and the fifth and final musical-comedy short subject in which the Three Stooges appeared with their longtime 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, beginning with Woman Haters (1934).

Hollywood Party, also known under its working title of Hollywood Revue of 1933 and Star Spangled Banquet,[1][2] is a 1934 American Pre-Code musical film starring Laurel and Hardy, Jimmy Durante, Lupe Vélez and Mickey Mouse (voiced by an uncredited Walt Disney).
