Yet he was also a great Straight Villain too. It must've been a real treat to see him menacing Gene Autry one week and then getting to see him get the business from the Stooges the next week at the cinema.

Yes.....he could be a REAL villian or a comical bad guy at the same time.
Great bad guy - and he could sure play the buffon villian in the Stooges, LOL.

Enjoyable Player
Dick Curtis was an enjoyable player, whether in Three Stooges shorts or feature films, mostly westerns and action fare. Seeing Curtis,–in anything, really–is, for me, like seeing an old friend, a neighbor I remember from my childhood, an uncle, a schoolteacher–from way back; and always the nicer ones, the best ones. He's such a familiar actor that I just like his face, usually mustached, but not always. For some reason, maybe it's all the work he did with the Stooges, I just can't help but like the guy.
