Essay Topic: Farce

In The Three Stooges ( I Want my Mummy episode) we can see how farce is employed in comedy. The fact that Curly places a carpet over the well to prevent people from falling is a clear element of farce, and a hyperbolic cliché. This only worsens the situation since the well is hidden. It is obvious that this well is going to be key in the future, and it proves to be, since it is their way out.
