Marx Brothers Collection, The (3 Disc Box Set)

Features 3 great Marx Brothers classics!

Animal Crackers
Hooray for Captain Spaulding! Animal Crackers is a classic of screen history and as uproariously funny today as it was 60 years ago. This film introduced Groucho'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 weathly society woman Mrs Rittenhouse.

Duck Soup
Possibly the most well known of any Marx Brother's films, made during the depression of 1933. Groucho stars as Rufus T Firefly, dictator of mythical Freedonia. Harpo and Chico have been commissioned as spies by Grouchs' rival, Trentino.

Horse Feathers
A hilarious Marx Brothers comedy, Horse Feathers is one of the masterpieces of the fraternal troupe's oeuvre. Professor Quincy Adams Wagstaff (Groucho Marx) is the new President of Huxley College. In order to stay in charge he must somehow get the college football team to win their annual Thanksgiving game against arch-rivals Darwin - a bit of a tall order, since Huxley haven't won a match since 1888! Needless to say, playing it by the rules is the last thing on Wagstaff's mind...
