Watched #AnimalCrackers 🎬

I'm definitely in a classic mood, so how about my second Marx Brothers feature?
The wit and level of puns is excellent, especially from Groucho, who just takes over every scene he is in, while Harpo excels at physical comedy and, of course, his hands on the harp.

White Studios, [The Marx Brothers as the Four Musketeers in Animal Crackers], circa 1930. Theater Biography Collection at the Harry Ransom Center.

🎶We're four of the three musketeers.
We've been together for years!
Eenie, meenie, minee [HONK]
Four of the three musketeers!🎶

An annual dose of Marxism The silent magic of Harpo Marx still works!

I still remember all the ads for the big network TV premiere of this movie when the ownership rights related to the original Kaufman play finally got resolved.

The fact someone else on this planet was doing the exact same thing at the exact same moment... gives me hope for our future.
