Flying Saucer Daffy is a 1958 short subject directed by Jules White starring American slapstick comedy team The Three Stooges (Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Joe Besser).

In a narrative parallel reminiscent of the Cinderella archetype, Joe finds himself subjected to servitude under the guardianship of his aunt and two indolent cousins, Moe and Larry.

During a camping excursion, Joe inadvertently captures a photograph of a paper plate carried aloft by a gust of wind, which is misconstrued as an image of an Unidentified Flying Object (UFO).

However, their ill-gotten acclaim proves short-lived as the veracity of the UFO picture is debunked by governmental authorities, leading to the arrest of Moe and Larry for perpetrating a hoax.

Subsequently hailed as a national hero, Joe is lauded for his photographic achievement, symbolized by a celebratory ticker-tape parade alongside his extraterrestrial companions.
