I got a good mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it.
Most critics regard this film as the Marx Brothers' best. I'm not sure if I agree, but it sure is funny. The films "storyline" follows Groucho as he defends his tiny country of Freedonia from neighboring Sylvania. Harpo and Chico join in as Sylvanian spies and absolute hilarious ridiculousness ensues.
Duck Soup includes the Marx Brothers' most famous scene (pictured above). This mirror scene has been copied over and over, but, besides Harpo, I have always thought that the brothers were best when they used their sharp wit and humor over physical comedy. My favorite Marx Brother's film is tomorrow...
