The Brothers Marx are back and…. oh boy, its a doozy as Tyler Maybee (Podcaster, ‘Surrounded by A**holes) returns to help Zach sift through the final three films Groucho, Chico, and Harpo made made in their return to MGM.
Settle in as the two trace the timeline and reasoning for the brothers return, wrestle with the less than quality scripts, analyze the abilities that Edward Buzzell as director can bring to his entries, find the silver linings within each troubled film, reckon with outdated elements in the trio of pictures, and finally asses the reputation and standing of these films on their own and in the overall Marx Brothers legacy.
The Films Discussed:
AT THE CIRCUS (1939)
GO WEST (1940)
THE BIG STORE (1941)
