Summary:
"When writer-turned-comedian Dick
Cavett
became the host of his own talk show in 1968, his mentor,
Groucho
Marx, quickly became a frequent guest.
Groucho
's appearances on The Dick
Cavett
Show captured what
Cavett
calls 'the last of
Groucho
's greatness.'
Cavett
's early years as a writer and comedian coincided with a slowdown in
Groucho
's professional activity, and it was during this time that their friendship blossomed. In
Groucho
and
Cavett
, the three-time Emmy® Award-winner looks back at his relationship with the iconic comedian, sharing footage from
Groucho
's visits to his show and other rare recordings. In much the same way that
Groucho
's television quiz show, You Bet Your Life, had provided the perfect vehicle for him after his movie career ended, The Dick
Cavett
Show allowed
Groucho
to be
Groucho
one more time."--Container.
