Biography

Né à Vallejo, en Californie, Bud Jamison a commencé sa carrière en Californie. En 1915, il a intégré comme membre la société anonyme de Charlie Chaplin à la Essanay Studios. Puis, il est parti pour les studio de la Hal Roach Studio, jouant avec le comique Harold Lloyd, Snub Pollard et Stan Laurel. Dans les années 1920, il a rejoint Universal Pictures, et plus tard travaillé dans les comédies de Mack Sennett.

Dans ses premiers films Bud Jamison était trop jeune pour être totalement convaincant. Au fil des ans, il a grandi dans ces rôles, et au moment de l'arrivée du cinéma parlant il était reconnu comme un personnage comique fiable.

Bud Jamison avait une superbe voix de ténor, et il aimait chanter devant les caméras. Bud Jamison l'a même embauché seulement pour son chant, comme dans Pot o 'Or, où il joue un vagabond qui harmonise en prison.

Dans la plupart de ses films Bud Jamison a continué de jouer des flics, des voleurs, des patrons, des fonctionnaires, des professionnels et divers hommes qui s'affrontent avec le premier rôle. Il est apparu en face de Bing Crosby, WC Fields, et Andy Clyde dans la Sennett talkies. Il a trouvé du travail à différents studios: Hal Roach (avec Thelma Todd et ZaSu Pitts, et Charley Chase). Educational Photos (avec Buster Keaton), RKO Radio Pictures (avec Clark & McCullough, Leon Errol, et Edgar Kennedy), et Columbia Pictures (avec Keaton, Clyde, Chase, Harry Langdon, et The Three Stooges, parmi beaucoup d'autres).

Bud Jamison a souffert de diabète au cours de ses dernières années. Il est devenu malade à la mi-1944, mais a refusé de prendre l'insuline en raison de ses croyances à la Science chrétienne. En conséquence, il est mort du diabète subitement le 30 septembre 1944, à l'âge de 50 ans.

The Stooges are icemen that have fallen asleep in their delivery wagon. Their horse wakes them up. Curly finds his face and head embedded in a large block of ice after having used it for a pillow. Moe and Larry break him out of it, and they begin their ice block deliveries. After several deliveries they are called to make a delivery at a house atop a long, high staircase. It's so high that every time they go up, the ice melts to a cube. They make several attempts including relaying it successfully to the top, only to have Curly drop it. It's during these attempts and arguments that they bump into Mr. Lawrence (Vernon Dent) and ruin his cakes.

Wealthy Ajax Bullion (Emory Parnell) is up in arms when his eccentric wife (Lelah Tyler) informs him that she wants to adopt a refugee, the latest socio-political movement. After taking a trip to his dentist (Richard Fiske), Mr. Bullion meets the Stooges, inept window washers who act as interim dentists when Bullion enters the office demanding medical attention. After pulling his bridge-work out completely ("you stripped his gears!", Larry comments), they try to put it back into his mouth with cement. However, the cement hardens before they have a chance to put the tooth back in, so they decide to blast. The dentist arrives back in his office as the dynamite is lit. He calls out to the Stooges, who notice him and run off. The dynamite goes off and Mr. Bullion wakes up, noticing that the pain in his tooth is gone. He heads back to his car and notices the Stooges hiding inside. He inquires as to what they are up to, and Moe says that they are "refugees." Mr. Bullion then has a very nasty idea to disabuse his wife of her philanthropic notion: pass these three nitwits off as refugee children.

The Stooges are Click, Clack and Cluck, paparazzi-like photographers working for Whack Magazine ("If it's a good picture, it's out of Whack!") who continue to grate at their weary boss (Vernon Dent). To get them out of his hair, he sends them to Vulgaria (an obvious parody of Bulgaria and fictional european country) for their next job, knowing full well that taking pictures in Vulgaria is against the law, leading to execution. The inept trio are caught almost immediately after they set foot on Vulgarian soil. As the firing squad is setting up, Curly requests one last smoke, leading to him pulling out a cigar the length of a hero sandwich. The wait puts everyone to sleep, and enables the boys to escape. As they try to avoid their captors, they end up in a local cafe, in which Curly pits his wits against a strong drink, and then a defiant oyster in his stew. When the oyster works Curly's last nerve he pulls out his gun and fires at it repeatedly. This gets the attention of the guards who promptly capture the Stooges and carry them off, upside down, on the bayonets of their guns.

At the estate of King Herman the 6⅞ (Don Brodie) (a parody of Kaiser Wilhelm II), the deposed king of Moronica, war profiteers Ixnay (Vernon Dent), Amscray (Lynton Brent) and Umpchay (previously Onay) (Bud Jamison) have decided that they have had enough of Moe Hailstone, the fascist dictator they put in power, and want to help Herman retake the throne. To this end, his daughter, the princess Gilda (Mary Ainslee), threatens to try and assassinate Hailstone using an explosive Number 13 pool ball strategically positioned in Hailstone's billiard table. The fictitious country of Moronica (or at least Moe Hailstone) seems to be familiar with a pool game in which the 13 ball is placed at the head of the rack during set up.

The Stooges are inept, but honest, street cleaners. When they come across an envelope filled with oil bonds in the trash, they return them to their owner, B.O. Davis (John Tyrrell). The grateful Davis offers them a 5,000-dollar reward if they can find an honest man with executive abilities. An honest dog ultimately leads them to a weeping girl (Dorothy Appleby) who explains that her sweetheart has been unfairly jailed. The best way to talk to him, the Stooges figure, is to get arrested themselves. They land in the clink and track down their man, Percy Pomeroy (Eddie Laughton). With some black paint, they make their prison outfits look like guard uniforms and make their escape. Just as they are leaving, Davis is coming in — handcuffed to a detective and revealed as "Lone Wolf Louie, the biggest bond swindler in America." The Stooges wind up back in jail, breaking rocks over Curly's head.
