Summary:
"The Marx Bros. try to find a backer for a Broadway play. Then they scramble to find a backer for a
circus
. So we put them backer to backer in this hilarious twofer. In Room Service (co-starring Lucille Ball and Ann Miler), a cash-strapped theatrical troupe reasons no none would bounce a sick man from a hotel room. And that leads to a diagnosis of crazycomedy involving feigned illness, fake suicides, a bogus physician and more Marxist doctorin'. The 3-ring
circus
that is Groucho, Chico and Harpo provide big-top bedlam At The
Circus
. Groucho and Chico work a badge skit, Chico and Harpo scour a strongman's bedroom for evidence, Groucho extols Lydia the Tattooed Lady and logic, like the orchestra at the film's antic conclusion, is cut adrift and out to sea. You can learn a lot from Lydia. And you can laugh ta lot with these two classic romps."--Container.
