Laurel and Hardy's first film was "Duck Soup" (1927). It was a
comedy short not to be confused with the 1933 Marx brothers film of
the same name.
The first stooge film was "Nertsery Rhymes" (1933). This is the
first stooge film starring Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly
Howard. There was an earlier 1930 film "Soup to Nuts" starring Moe,
Larry, and Shemp Howard. In the early years the team was actually
led by Ted Healy.
