baravelli you've got the brain of a 4 year old boy and i bet he was glad to get rid of it
this was always my favourite of the brothers films back in the day, it's non-stop jokes and gags from the get-go. i've always especially enjoyed the dumb musical interludes in the middle of their films but this one has my favourite of them all with everyone's rendition of 'everyone says i love you'. groucho marx was lowkey one of the most important people of my teenage years which is dumb asl but he influenced so much of what i find funny now lmao. still to this day one of my favourite exchanges in any comedy film is:
- you got a brother?
- no
- you got a sister?
- yeah
- well your sister she's a very sick man
idk why it makes me laugh so much but it's never once failed.

Not my favorite Marx Brothers so far, but the seal bit tickled me more than I can express
