Men in Black is the only Stooge film ever nominated for an Academy Award for Best Short Subject - Comedy.

[1] The Stooges portray medical school graduates with minimal qualifications, hired as doctors at Los Arms Hospital due to their prolonged tenure as senior students.

The film follows a series of interactions as the Stooges attend to patients, each scenario highlighting their ineptitude and penchant for mishaps.

Accompanying their duties are recurring incidents, including Curly inadvertently breaking the superintendent's glass door.

[2] The opening title music, "I Thought I Wanted You," composed by Archie Gottler and Edward Eliscu, is unique to this and previous film, Punch Drunks.

Part of the dispatcher's call board was also used in the background of the dogwashing facility in the Stooges' 1938 short, Mutts to You.
