When Groucho, Chico, Harpo, and Zeppo unleashed their silliness upon an unsuspecting world, they raised the bar for wordplay, physical comedy, and absurd plots alike. Tonight, mark the new year with the still-fresh Duck Soup and Horse Feathers, two 1930s testaments to the Marx Brothers' enduring genius. In Duck Soup, marker-mustached Groucho plays the new "fearless" leader of Freedonia who declares a no-reason war on a neighboring country; Horse Feathers, meanwhile, finds the fraternal anarchists at Huxley College, where football becomes a not-so-simple, screwball solution to their troubles.
