Question: I don't remember if it was mentioned in the movie, but are the three stooges brothers or friends?
Answer: In the film, they grow up as friends, but it is a bit misleading, considering they were all babies put on the doorstep together. That WOULD make one confused as to the answer to that question.
Continuity mistake: In the long shot of Sister Bernice as a lifeguard at the pool, she is twirling a whistle with her right hand. But in the close-up shot of her a moment later, the whistle has gone.
Trivia: Jim Carrey was originally offered the role of Curly, but turned it down because he didn't want to wear a fat suit, and felt he was too old to gain the necessary weight without risking his health.
Chosen answer: The original Three Stooges was comprised of two brothers, Moe Howard and Curly Howard, and also Larry Fine, who was unrelated. After Curley suffered a debilitating stroke in the 1950s, his brother, Shemp Howard, took over as the third Stooge. In this movie they're just friends.
