BEAR SHOOTERS (1930) Norman 'Chubby' Chaney, Jackie Cooper & Mary Ann Jackson | Comedy, Family | B&W
Bear Shooters is a 1930 Our Gang short comedy film directed by Robert F. McGowan. It was the 98th Our Gang short to be released.
SYNOPSIS
On a camping trip, Spud reluctantly brings along his little brother Wheezer, who needs regular chest ointment due to the croup. Despite Spud's initial plan to stay home and care for Wheezer, he decides to join the camping expedition with Wheezer and his sister Mary Ann. They all set off in a rickety wagon pulled by Dinah the Mule, with Jackie, Chubby, and Farina in tow.
Initially, their journey is uneventful until they encounter hidden bootleggers who try to scare them away by disguising one of them in a gorilla suit. Despite the fright, the gang manages to capture the fake gorilla. However, their adventure is cut short when a skunk, not the bootlegger in disguise, forces them to abandon their campsite due to a pungent spray.

NOTES
Bear Shooters is a remake of the 1924 silent entry It's a Bear. Allen Hoskins appeared in both films.
Bear Shooters is one of four sound Our Gang shorts that fell into the public domain after the copyright lapsed in the 1960s (the other three being School's Out, Our Gang Follies of 1938 and Waldo's Last Stand). As such, these films frequently appear on inexpensive video and/or DVD compilations.
