Hearts are Thumps (1937) | Little Rascals | FULL SHORT | Valentines, Alfalfa's in Love
Spanky, Alfalfa and Buckwheat have no interest in observing Valentine's Day. To prove it, Spanky establishes the He-Man Woman-Haters' Club in order to serve as their united front against the holiday. However, Alfalfa quickly abandons the club when Darla flirtatiously winks at him and proceeds to invite him to lunch to exchange Valentines. Spanky decides to teach his buddy a lesson by slipping soap into Alfalfa's lunch while he and Darla are away. Alfalfa stumbles through lunch as pleasantly as possible without offending Darla.
At the conclusion of recess, Darla encourages Alfalfa to sing while she plays "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" on the piano. After a drink of water to settle his upset stomach, Alfalfa warbles through the song as soap bubbles flow out of his mouth. As Alfalfa runs from the classroom upon finishing the song, a vindicated Spanky tears up Darla's valentine for Alfalfa.

Can you imagine women being this kind to young men! Things have really changed
ОтветитьI wonder if femminist tried critical theory bullshit on the Little rascals. LOL

Classic.
Ответить
Buckwheat is the best! Always loved his reactions and comedic timing, even as a little kid.
Ответить
Did Spanky really have to rip up Alfalfa's valentine at the end? As if it's not enough that he made him eat soap!
Ответить
This is where they got the idea for the picnic scene and the talent show with bubbles in the 1994 Little Rascals movie. XD

The Little Rascals and all the music soundtracks are absolute treasures!

I had heard years ago that Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer was shot and killed over an unpaid gambling debt. Come to find out, recently, that he ran a dog-walking service later in life and lost one of his client's valuable hunting dogs. The client had a heated dispute with Switzer and Carl brandished a knife to threaten the angry client. The client was conceal carrying, drew his revolver shooting Carl to death in self defense. The client said after being shot, Carl folded his knife back up signaling a de-escalation of aggression, but it was too late. He died shortly thereafter from his injuries.
Those Switzer brothers evidently had a violent temperament. Carl's older brother Harold (at 42) ran a washer/dryer repair service, and had a dispute with an angry customer. They fought and Harold murdered the man. He immediately drove to a remote spot in Inglewood and committed suicide. Cripes...talk about drama.
Next year the oldest little rascal episode will be 100!

Having experience with film, the editing, especially the bubbles, must've been painstaking, compared to 21st tech. Hilarious!

Every day I came home from school and had to watch The Little Rascals at 4 pm. I sure wish they had shows like this today.
Ответить
The He-Man Woman-Hater's Club was also featured in the 1982 animated episode "Beauty Queen for a Day".
Ответить
Ahh! So this is the episode the 1994 The Little Rascals movie got the Bubble part from! That’s actually really cool. It’s funny that as soon as Alfalfa made the promise to the He-Man Woman haters club he instantly falls in love with Darla 🤣 that is so adorkable and just cute as anything
Ответить
1.) I do really love this short, but I feel like I have to ask: how did Waldo go from Henrietta to Darla? Or is the Waldo in this short a different Waldo than the one from the movie remake?
2.) Part of this short was sampled in the song "Tough Guys" by REO Speedwagon 🙂
Fun Fact: Alfalfa died from a gunshot wound to the balls in 1959.

I really love this video, but sometimes I act it out
Ответить
I used to watch the show after school when I was 9 or 10. I had the biggest crush on the teacher.
Ответить
Spanky is a sexist and prejudiced Rascal
ОтветитьBuckwheat spiked the water with soap
Ответить
Alfalfa really was good at physical/expressive comedy, especially for such a young age. Spanky was good but seemed to be just mimicking what the director told him to do. He got better as he got older though. So sad Alfalfa died so young. 😢
ОтветитьIs this where the name HeMan came from for the cartoon?
Ответить
Poor Darla got bad blood in a transfusion and passed away
Ответить
In later life buckwheat became a big heroin dealer in Harlem had 13 kids from four different women ended up shot on a street corner in 1957

Spanky would have gotten in trouble in 2024 for poising his friend.

I had to search for this & so glad I could find it.
Gov Tim Walz, the VP, nominee on the Democratic ticket referred to "the He-Man Woman Haters Club" when talking about the GOP's war on women & I knew it came from Our Gang (Spanky & Alfalfa).
Just so darn funny 😄
Wow
The year my mommy was born.
They always had Buckwheat looking raggerty 😱😱😱
Ответить
REO Speedwagon "Don't Let Him Go" begins with the famous 'what about your promise' line and Alfalfa's best response ever.
