🎥 Movies of 2021, 26: Animal Crackers. I’ve always been more of a theoretical Marx Brothers fan. I ‘liked’ them, but if pressed I would have to admit that I’d probably only seen two of their movies (Duck Soup and A Night at the Opera). So I’m trying to fill in the gaps.
I think every Marx Brothers movie has four types of scenes:
- Funny ones
- Musical interludes
- Plot rigamarole
- Racism or Harpo being a sex pest
And I pretty much ignore the last three. But I do like the funny ones.
