“From Japan to Russia, from Argentina to Alaska and all over Europe the
Marx Brothers are revered as the greatest cinema clowns in talking pictures.
They are universally adored by the most unsophisticated audiences to the
highest intellectuals. There’s never been anything like them, their films are
not only an enduring part of movie history but of American culture and now
well after their deaths the Brothers continue to exert their impact as strongly
as ever.” –Woody Allen
