Duck Soup

(1933)

 

This means WAR! The Marx brothers dominated the comedy space in the early 30s, and it’s easy to see why in what’s considered to be their best film. Groucho is a ridiculous dictator with a taste for war, and Chico and Harpo are spies working for the other side…or are they? It’s hard to find a sillier comedy…which is all the more rare because it’s a SCATHING commentary of a post-Great War world. Just watch “All God’s Chillun Got Guns.” It’s a true classic. Buckle up and enjoy the ride with a hey-nani-nani and a ah-cha-cha!
