...I love Duck Soup, A Day at the Races, Animal Crackers, and Cocoanuts.
...In Duck Soup, the mirror scene is priceless. And where Chico explains how he and Harpo have shadowed Mr. Firefly.
...In A Day at the Races, I love where Dr. Hackenbush (Groucho) is snookered out of his money by Chico at the racetrack.
...In Animal Crackers, I love the "7-cent nickel" and where Chico uses deductive reasoning and figures out that the missing painting was stolen by left-handed moths.
...In Cocoanuts, I love where Mr. Hammer (Groucho) asks Mrs. Rittenhouse (Margaret Dumont) - "Did anyone ever tell you you liked the Prince of Wales...not the present Prince of Wales...and believe me, I know a whale when I see one!"

The Marx Brothers are consistently there for me when I have a bad day. My fave movies are Duck Soup and Horse Feathers. Harpo is my role model...I would love to just lose all sense of moral conviction and run around like a maniac cutting people's clothes off of them and honking for no reason. My favorite scene ever is Chico and Harpo at their peanut stand terrorizing the lemonade guy.

I love the Marx brothers. Oh my gosh, the things Groucho says that would have gotten him sued nowadays! ("My mother was a little Headstrong. My father was a little Armstrong. The Headstrongs married the Armstrongs, and that's why darkies were born." Whoa, what did you just say?!) My favorite part of Duck Soup is when he's finishing the song in the beginning and he rolls up the lower leg of his pants to look like the soldiers. Mrs. Teasdale says, "Good heavens! You can't go with your trousers up!" And Groucho says, "I can't, eh? Well, they'll never catch me any other way!"

I love the Marx Brothers!
Chico: "Viaduct? Vhy not a chicken?"
Groucho: "I have a friend who owns a cemetary. People are just dying to get in. I'll put a good word in for you because I like you". Chico: "I know you like me."
I haven't seen them in a while, but I always remembered these to bits, which really made me laugh!

I read all the books written by groucho Marx and he was one of the most brilliant funny men of the 20th century.In one of his books he says the Dr. told me to go on a diet and I would live longer. well I know I wont live longer but it sure seems longer. he was at Disneyland with his daughter and a lady approached him and said" you are such a rude man!! the things you say to people on your TV show (she was referring to you bet your life, a TV quiz show he was doing) groucho replied mam, if I was a Mormon and you was one of my wife's and I came home in that special mood, I would not pick you. ha ha he was so funny

I find their movies to be extremely enjoyable, although I haven't seen one in years.
My favorite scene was one where Harpo actually got to play his harp! It was the most beautiful music I'd ever heard. I wish I could remember the name of the movie, but I can't.
