A remake -- with plenty of stock footage -- of Brideless Groom (1947), Husbands Beware once again asks the burning question: Can Shemp of the Three Stooges find himself a wife in a matter of hours and qualify for a 50,000-dollar inheritance? Columbia stretched the plot rather thin this time, hiring Lu Leonard and Maxine Gates as Shemp's ferocious sisters who marry Larry and Moe. Christine McIntyre, appearing in a delightful slugfest with Shemp, and Emil Sitka appear courtesy of the stock footage.
