Description

ANIMAL CRACKERS: Animal Crackers is a classic of screen history and as uproariously funny today as it was 60 years ago. This film introduced Croucho's African lecture ("one morning I shot an elephant in my pyjamas. How he got into my pyjamas, I don't know.") and the card game which Harpo and Chico play with the wealthy society woman Mrs Rittenhouse.

MONKEY BUSINESS: Harpo, Chico, Croucho and Zeppo, head for high seas hilarity in this classic film comedy. While hiding from the authorities on a luxury liner the quartet of stowaways become bodyguards to rival gangsters, with the usual hilarious results and naturally no woman can resist a shipboard romance with the wily, quick-witted Croucho.

HORSE FEATHERS: The quintessential Marx Brothers comedy. Croucho, Harpo, Chico and yes Zeppo, are at their manic peak in this uproariously anarchic parody of college life. As the fun loving president of Huxley College Croucho tries to keep the student body in line with hilarious results! Horse Feathers contains some of the greatest sequences in move comedy history.

DUCK SOUP: A pointed political satire, Duck Soup is the Marx Brothers' funniest and most insane film. The film contains many of the Brothers most famous sequences including a final battle episode that has been copied by everyone from Woody Allen to Mad Magazine.
