Curley is a 1947 American comedy film produced by Hal Roach and Robert F. McGowan as a re-imagining of their Our Gang series.

The plot of the film centers on a group of schoolchildren, led by Curley (Olsen), playing pranks on their teacher, Miss Johnson (Rafferty).

Curley also manages to disclose the school kids' hope that Miss Johnson will quit immediately, so that they can spend the whole day fishing.

The schoolroom is duly filled with thick black smoke, Curley is blamed, but it turns out he is chasing the rocketship toy car, and not driving it.

She teaches them baseball, football, and boxing and offers the children lessons after school, but only if they earn good grades in their classes.

Mildred is engaged in a boxing fight with the big Hank, a tough student, when the enraged Miss Payne arrives in order to scrutinize her performance.

Mildred gets an explanation of the previous events, and that when the classroom filled with smoke, Curley was chasing his "rocketship", not driving it, thus not responsible for the prank.

Mildred reassures him with cake and ice cream that such a thing won't happen, and tops it off with picking up Croakey the frog.

The Memphis, Tennessee Censor Board banned Curley for showing black and white children in school together and playing together.
