Review of Animal Crackers (1930) by Robert M — 19 Nov 2007
OK. "Duck Soup" is the one to watch if you are just going to watch ONE Marx Brothers film, but if you want to see GROUCHO at his best, then you need look no further than this hopelessly stagebound classic.
The fact that actresses are snickering on camera, extras are doubling over in the background, and BLOWN TAKES are left in (because Groucho's riposte was so brilliant) just makes it better for me. This is one is all Groucho.
Hooray for Captain Spaulding!
