Horse Feathers 1932 —
The first 5 minutes of this film containing a priceless monologue by Groucho Marx as Professor Quincy Waggstaff, the new Dean of Huxley College is probably the absolute funniest opening of a movie you have ever seen, it leads to a crazy musical number -- Whatever it is. . . I'm against it !!! The Marx brothers at their zany and funniest as the invade the institution of higher learning and make a subversive farce over all of it. Eventually the brothers wind up mixed up with gangsters who are trying to fix a college football game. The class room scene, the speak-easy scene, the wooing of college widow Thelma Todd scene, the several versions of the Everyone Says I Love You song and Harpo making a chariot out of a trash collectors cart and getting on to the football field.... well be prepared. You may hurt yourself laughing so hard over this one.Groucho's personal favorite film was A Night at the Opera, and you have to say Duck Soup was their best and craziest, but this one I believe is the funniest and the one I never ever get tired of seeing and laughing at. WOW.
#16 b on my Greatest Movies List 16b? Yeah.. that's right.. I'm making a subversive mockery of my own list and using two Marx Brothers movies at 16 a and 16 b to do it. Come get me.
