Duck Soup

1933

Dir: Leo McCarey (Going My Way; The Bells of St. Mary's; An Affair to Remember)

I actually saw this two days ago and procrastinated on the blog. But, I am still ahead of some around here. I have been anxioulsy awaiting that Charlie and the Chocolate Factory post.

I was going to be more philosophical on one of my favorite movies, but leave it at this. The Marx Brothers made the funniest movies ever. No debate. Their craft is the most precise, their timing is the most perfect, their rebelliousness is the most groundbreaking. See all of their movies, even the bad ones. And Duck Soup is one of the best ones, so see it first.
