Weep not, for they live again.
Like ghosts from Saturday-morning TV marathons past, three familiar figures jump out from a row of bushes and materialize poolside in the steamy mid-July heat. One sports a distinctive bowl cut, another wears a corona of wild frizz, and the chubby fellow is as bald as a bikini-waxed peach.
Near a building that bears the sign Sisters of Mercy Orphanage & Spa, a ballistic ballet of comic bedlam unfolds: a face is slapped, a cranium is conked, clumps of hair are yanked by the fistful and the epithet "You idiot!" resounds throughout the movie set in suburban Atlanta.
Yes, Moe, Larry and Curly have returned to "woo, woo, woo" and "nyuk-nyuk-nyuk" another day in The Three Stooges: The Movie, opening Friday.

Maybe it was just a matter of time before Peter and Bobby Farrelly, the brothers who wrote and directed the comedy "Dumb & Dumber," made a movie about their original dimwitted inspiration, The Three Stooges. (Reuters)
The sound of “nyuk, nyuk, nyuk” will be heard across the land when The Three Stooges — the Farrelly brothers’ long-awaited tribute to the slapstick comedy legends — opens Friday, introducing the trio to a new generation of knuckleheads. (Newsday)
