No Census, No Feeling

No Census, No Feeling (1940)

The stooges get jobs as census takers and wind up in a fancy mansion looking for people to survey. Moe and Larry are recruited to join a bridge game, while Curly adds Alum to the lemonade. The resulting concoction is consumed by everyone, resulting in puckered lips and shrunken clothes. The boys next try to take the census at a football stadium. They disguise themselves as players and wind up in the middle of the game. Curly runs off with the ball and all the other players in pursuit.

Production notes

No Census, No Feeling was filmed on May 25–29, 1940. The film title is a parody on the expression "No sense, no feeling".

Curly confuses "census" for "the censor", thinking he is working for Will H. Hays.

In one scene, Curly believes that it is Independence Day in October, claiming that "you never can tell; look what they did to Thanksgiving!". This is a reference to an event in 1939 when Franklin Roosevelt moved Thanksgiving to an earlier Thursday in November to lengthen the Christmas shopping season.

A colorized version of this film was released in the 2004 DVD collection entitled "Stooged & Confoosed."
