Animal Crackers (1930)Director: Victor Heerman
The Marx Brothers second film is a chaotic, cracklingly funny, bizarre and confusing chain of events full of shady characters, an empty plot, and shallow characters. In other words, it's epitomical of their best work.
Not everything these guys do makes me laugh. Some gags make me laugh long after the scene is over. I imagine on different nights, different scenes would strike me as funny, some nights maybe none of them would strike me as funny.
Oh, one last thing, it's nice to see Zeppo have a comedic moment. The dictation scene is quite funny.
