    August 17, 2003: Inspired lunacy! Although I consider Duck Soup to be the pen ultimate Marx Brothers movie, I have a very strong affection for this laff riot comedy. The boys are in top form, Sam Wood's direction gives it pacing and build up, the songs aren't insufferable, and when that opera tries to get off the ground, the Marxes fire with both barrels -- and you can't help but howl! The deft touch of George S. Kaufman is all over this script to Groucho's great advantage. His one-liners have never been sharper or funnier than here. Chico's illogical logic just shines, and you don't write for Harpo Marx, you just let him stroll onto the set and keep the cameras running! Plus, it's always a highlight when Chico plays piano and Harpo the harp -- and they don't disappoint here. Harpo's redition of ''Alone'' will bring tears to your eyes, it's that beautiful. Whether its ''The party of the first part...'', ''...and two hard boiled eggs,'' ''...and that's how we fly to Amerca,'' or ''Boogie! Boogie! Boogie!'', the laughs will come back to you long after this film finishes ''just as Mrs. Claypool's checks will come back in the morning.'' Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!
