The Marx Brothers have been my favorite troupe since I first saw them as a child. . . . I was the child, of course, not them. I like them so much that I have read maybe ten books on them (The only one who doesn't seem to have a biography is Zeppo, and I've looked.) There isn't a moment in any of their films that I don't fully enjoy, and I believe I have thirteen of their fourteen movies on DVD, and I watched two of them this past weekend: Copacabana and Harpo's Love Happy. My only wish is to find Groucho's version of The Mikado.

To me, the brightest point of any Marx Brothers film is when Chico plays the piano. (I chose to showcase this one simply because Thelma Todd is in it. ;)) I can watch these clips over and over and never grow tired of them. There's only one tiny problem: I can't seem to decide which song is my favorite.

Then again, why would I want to choose? [huh]
