I’ve had two encounters so far with the Marx Brothers this year. The first was Duck Soup, a film I absolutely adored and will likely watch again soon. The other was Monkey Business, another charming albeit less impressive film. Monkey Business leaned heavily into the vaudeville background of the Marx Brothers, while Duck Soup felt much more developed in terms of cinematic form. A Day At The Races, despite coming a few years after Duck Soup, seems to return to that vaudeville. 

I didn’t like it as much as the other two, but I really do love these films. They’re so funny and, even with the more controversial material here, they’ve aged remarkably well.

This movie probably would have been considered there best if they cut 20 minutes from it by shorting up the jokes and otherwise being hilarious.
