"Hearts Are Thumps" is a 1937 "Our Gang" short comedy film directed by Gordon Douglas. It was the 152nd "Our Gang" short (153rd episode, 64th talking short, and 65th talking episode) that was released.

Plot

It is Valentine's Day, and Our Gang members Spanky, Alfalfa, Buckwheat, and Porky aren't impressed. Deciding that romance is the bunk, the boys form the He-Man Woman Hater's Club. Alfalfa is willing to go along with this until he falls head over heels in love with classmate Darla. Hoping to scotch this relationship, Spanky, Buckwheat and Porky insert soap in the sandwich and cream puff that Darla has prepared for Alfalfa. Tortuously, Alfalfa downs the nauseating repast, rather than hurt Darla's feelings. Things get worse for the would-be Romeo when schoolteacher Miss Jones (Rosina Lawrence) prevails upon Alfalfa to offer a bubbly (in every sense of the word!) rendition of "Let Me Call You Sweetheart". cite web |url=http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/225690/Hearts-Are-Thumps/overview |title=New York Times: Hearts Are Thumps |accessdate=2008-09-21|work=NY Times]
