Duck Soup, to be precise.
Alls I gotta say is: shit still works.
The guys are 6 and 4 and when they weren't complaining that the movie was boring, they were laughing their asses off (usually whenever Harpo and Chico were on-screen).

And yeah, they sat through the whole thing.

So, while the political satire went over their heads, the schtick hit them hard.

I have high hopes for the future. (They're big Chaplain fans, too.)

Strangely, I have never seen this movie.

I asked for that Marx Bros. Box set a few years ago when it came out, but I think I got a 3 pack of Charlie Sheen movies or something :roll:
