Funny. I was watching this scene the other day and thought to myself how nice it would be to watch it again. It was on TCM today, taped it and watched it tonight. Ended right at midnight.
This is what I always thought of when I thought of prohibition. So much so, that I was expecting this scene in Ken Burns' recent PBS docu PROHIBITION!
Classic silliness! Wow, I haven't seen that in ages! I've always loved Chico! His exchanges with Groucho are hilarious! Thanks for sharing that! That took me back!
I make skits that are chock-full of puns and one-liners, please take a look and let me know what you think! I'm a huge fan of The Marx Brothers and want to reach out to an audience who likes that sense of humor
their talent was wonderful but dont forget , they worked hard from an early age to get where they did. nothing comes easy, unless your an irish banker ,then you get 3,000.000 e for one years work !!!!. no joking ,he was really paid that amount .
@PoisonRainVornado If you're thinking of The Story of Mankind, technically that was not a Marx Bros movie, even though they all three appeared in it. The reason it's not usually considered a MB movie is because they appeared separately in it, in three different vignettes.
@311rockr It's THE STORY OF MANKIND, which features an all star cast(although most are sadly wasted) including Price, Peter Lorre, John Carradine, Cedric Hardwicke, Ronald Colman, Hedy Lamarr, & Francis X. Bushman among many others. The film isn't as bad as most people would lead you to believe, it just isn't a masterpiece.
I've always liked the Paramount Marx Bros movies more than the MGM ones later. Except for Night at the Opera which was really funny.

How appropriate that now, decades later, attempting to acquire information such as a password is called phishing.

Groucho: "Hello. How are you?"
Chico: "I'm-a fine. I wanna come in."
Groucho: "What's the password?"
Chico: "It's-a sword-a fish."
LOL That line never gets old! :D

Ah, Groucho Marx. Arguably one of the funniest men who ever lived, along with his brothers. Todays comedians pale in comparison to these guys.

Another great routine by Groucho and Chico is "Tutsi Fruitsi Ice Cream"
from the film "A Day At The Races" - also Sanity Clause is another good one.
