Three Smart Guys is a 1943 Our Gang short comedy film directed by Edward Cahn. It was the 217th Our Gang short (218th episode, 129th talking short, 130th talking episode, and 49th MGM produced episode) that was released. The "three smart guys" in this film are Mickey, Froggy, and Buckwheat. They devise a scheme to play hooky from school and go fishing. They misbehave in class in hopes that the teacher will expel them. But they are forced to stay after school instead. The next morning they decide to just play hooky and go fishing, but upon arriving at the river bank, the kids make the acquaintance of a friendly hobo (Edward Fielding), who advises them that they'll never hook the "fish" of success unless they return to school. Duly chastened, the boys rush off to the schoolhouse just in time for the first bell. All is forgiven. Edward Cahn returned to direct this episode. A new director named Cyril Endfield would take over and under him the series finally ended. This film is a slight but very unfunny reworking of Readin' and Writin', a 1932 Our Gang episode. LESS
