From Nurse to Worse (1940): reparto, argumento y streaming

Released in 1940, From Nurse to Worse is a comedia film directed by Jules White, running about 17 minutes. “The Stooges try to defraud the insurance company! Nah...not smart enough!” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. The stooge's friend Jerry convinces them to take out on insurance on Curly and then have him act insane to collect. Moe and Larry put Curly on a leash and take him to the insurance doctor and have him act like a dog. Unfortunately, the insurance doctor wants to perform a brain operation (Cerebrum decapitation). The boys try to escape by hiding in the dog catchers wagon, but are caught and taken to the hospital. They escape again, this time by rigging a sheet to a gurney and sailing down the street, where they run into Jerry and knock him into wet cement.
