[appalachiablue]

- 'You Nazty Spy,' 1940, The Three Stooges.
(17 mins). At the onset of WWII, the Stooges released several films that poked fun at the rising Axis powers. You Nazty Spy! (1940) & its sequel, I'll Never Heil Again (1941) lampooned Hitler & the Nazis at a time when America was still neutral. Moe was cast as "Moe Hailstone", an Adolf Hitler-like character, with Curly playing a Hermann Göring character, replete with medals, & Larry a Joseph Goebbels-type propaganda minister.

- Moe, Larry, & director Jules White considered You Nazty Spy! their best film.
