http://www.iht.com/articles/518949.htm

Extractions: Saturday, May 8, 2004 NEW YORK Just when you've persuaded yourself yet again that this isn't Vietnam, you're hit by another acid flashback. Last weekend that flashback was to 1969. It was in June 1969 that Life magazine ran its cover story "The Faces of the American Dead in Vietnam: One Week's Toll," the acknowledged prototype for Ted Koppel's photographic roll-call of the American dead in Iraq on "Nightline." It was in November 1969 that a little-known reporter, Seymour Hersh, broke the story of the 1968 massacre at My Lai, the horrific scoop that has now found its match 35 years later in Hersh'sNew Yorker revelation of a 53-page U.S. Army report detailing "numerous instances of 'sadistic, blatant and wanton criminal abuses' at Abu Ghraib." No doubt some future edition of the Pentagon Papers will explain just why we restored Saddam Hussein's hellhole to its original use, torture rooms included, even as we allowed Baghdad's National Library, a repository of Mesopotamia's glorious pre-Baath history, to be looted and burned. The Vietnam parallels are, as always, not quite exact. America didn't "withdraw" for another four years after 1969 and didn't flee Saigon for another two years after that. We're on a faster track this time. News travels at a higher velocity now than it did then and saturates the culture more completely; the stray, silent images from the TV set lodge in our brains even when we are trying to tune them out. Last weekend, the first anniversary of the end of the war's "major combat operations," was a Perfect Storm of such inescapable images. The dense 48-hour cloud of bad news marked the beginning of the real, involuntary end of America's combat operations in Iraq, come hell or June 30.

Extractions: A love scene Hammer (Groucho): Did anyone ever tell you that you look like the Prince of Wales? Mrs. Potter: Hammer: I don't mean the present Prince of Wales; one of the old Wales, and believe me when I say Wales, I mean Wales. I know a whale when I see one. Did you say your room is three eighteen? You know I am the proprietor of this hotel and I have a passkey for every room in it. Mrs. Potter: Passkey? Hammer: Passkey-that's Russian for pass-you know they passkey down the streetskey. ... Aw, if we could find a little bungalow-eh? Oh, of course, I know where we could find one, but maybe the people wouldn't get out. But if we could find a nice little empty bungalow just for me and you, where we could bill and cow, no I meant we could bull and cow. Mrs. Potter: Do you know what you are trying to say? Hammer: Yes, it is not what I'm thinking of. What I meant was, if we had a nice little bungalow and you was on the inside and I was on the outside trying to get in and me inside trying to get out or, no you're inside out and I was upside-I'll tell you, if you don't hear from me by next Friday, the whole thing's off!

Extractions: In the history of comic teams, none can match the wild antics of the movies' favorite brothers Groucho, Chico, and Harpo. For the Marx Brothers no topic was taboo, no person sacred, and they made fun of everybody and everything. As youngsters the brothers began in vaudeville. A list of Marx Brothers movies reads like a greatest hits list of Hollywood comedies. "The Cocoanuts," "A Day At The Races," "Animal Crackers," "Duck Soup," "Horse Feathers," "A Night At The Opera," and "A Night In Casablanca" all show the wacky brothers in all their humorous glory. Their pranks are timeless, and continue to enchant viewers of all ages. Sample Advertising Campaigns through

The Marx Brothers IN CHICAGO
Marx Palmer lasted for some years but in October 1914 she was sued by the McVickers Theatre for breach of contract for the nonappearance of the marx brothers.
http://w1.660.telia.com/~u66005454/chicago.htm

Extractions: The Marx/Schickler Family first lived in an apartment at 4649 Calumet Avenue where the city directories find them ensconed in 1910 and 1911 but in late 1912 the family moved to a three-storey brownstone house at 4512 Grand Boulevard. In The Marx Bros. Scrapbook by Groucho and Richard Anobile, Groucho says: "We lived in Chicago for twelve years. I saw Ty Cobb play baseball many a day at White Sox Park. We lived right near there. We bought a house for $ 25,000.00. We paid a thousand down and owed the rest." The theatrical empire of Minnie Marx Palmer lasted for some years but in October 1914 she was sued by the McVickers Theatre for breach of contract for the non-appearance of the Marx Brothers. In 1918, the original Minnie Palmer returned to the United States, reappeared on stage and - to confuse matters further - also set herself up as a producer of musical shows. On 6 April 1917, USA declared war on Germany and in order to avoid her sons being drafted, Minnie Marx bought a farm in La Grange, south-west of Chicago. She had heard that farmers "who fed the nation" could be exempted from the draft. The farmhouse lay north of Joliet Road and east of La Grange, and has long been replaced by development. Chico married Betty Karp in March 1917 and three years later Groucho married Ruth Johnson. In the autumn of 1920, all the Marxes moved back to New York City. In July 2001 I was contacted by Paul Laporte , who mentioned that his Grandfather James (or Jim) "Payday" Moss Weber, born in 1898, and his brother Jerome "Jerry" Weber grew up next to the Marx Brothers in Chicago and that they "played" together. Jim and Jerry's grandfather Louis Weber, a Hungarian Jewish immigrant (born c. 1850), was a successful tailor who became a department store owner. He bought a mansion on Chicago's south side because of his huge family and because he loved to entertain his Hungarian cronies. The third floor was an enormous banquet hall with a polished dance floor.
The Marx Brothers MONKEY BUSINESS
Perelman is quoted by Simon Louvish in Monkey Business the Lives and Legends of the marx brothers; We put in a couple of enjoyable sessions that got nowhere
http://w1.660.telia.com/~u66005454/bizniz.htm

Extractions: In 1931 Will B. Johnstone worked with Morrie Ryskind on an unused radio sketch for the Marxes when Groucho suggested a collaboration with S.J. Perelman for another proposed radio series. Perelman is quoted by Simon Louvish in Monkey Business - the Lives and Legends of the Marx Brothers "We put in a couple of enjoyable sessions that got nowhere, except for a misty notion that the Marxes might be characterized as stowaways aboard an ocean liner." Groucho told them that "this isn't any fly-by-night radio serial - it's our next picture!" In addition to co-writing the script for Monkey Business , Will B. Johnstone also produced the cartoon for the pressbook . In many ways Monkey Business was a showcase for the Marx Brothers to re-use old routines. The basic plot is a developed version of their vaudeville show Home Again and the imitation of Maurice Chevalier and his song You Brought A New Kind Of Love To Me from Paramount's The Big Pond is a revamped version of Theatrical Agency from On The Balcony and I'll Say She Is . Earlier in 1931, Paramount put together a film called

http://www.fact-index.com/m/ma/marx_brothers.html

Extractions: (left to right) Chico, Zeppo, Groucho, Harpo They got their start in vaudeville . Their uncle Al Shean was half of the vaudeville act Gallagher and Shean, and his success no doubt inspired their mother Minnie Marx to put her boys on the stage. Groucho started in vaudeville in , mostly as a singer. By he and Gummo were singing together as two-thirds of The Three Nightingales. The next year Harpo became the fourth Nightingale. By the group was expanded to include their mother and their Aunt Hannah and renamed The Six Mascots. The act evolved from singing with some incidental comedy to a comedy sketch set in a schoolroom, featuring Groucho as the teacher presiding over a classroom which included students Harpo, Gummo and, by , Chico. The last version of the school act, entitled Home Again , was written by Al Shean. By this time the brothers had begun to incorporate their unique brand of comedy into their act and to develop their characters. Groucho began to wear his trademark greasepaint moustache and walk stooped over, Harpo began to wear a red fright wig, carry a small bicycle horn and never spoke, and Chico started to talk in a fake Italian accent.

Whyaduck Productions, Inc. -- Marx Brothers In A Nutshell
I discovered the marx brothers at the tender age of thirteen. The marx brothers in a Nutshell premiered on PBS in March of 1982 four years later.
http://www.duckprods.com/projects/marxbrothers.html

Extractions: I discovered the Marx Brothers at the tender age of thirteen. Very simply, I caught a broadcast of "Duck Soup" on TV one night and it changed my life. Through eighth grade, all through high school and well into college, I remained obsessed with the Marxes. While other kids my age were idolizing sports figures or rock stars, I was hanging posters of the Marxes, buying any books about them, researching old magazine articles at the library, running off to revival houses (in the days just prior to home video), and memorizing all the dialogue from their films. Its fair to say that because of them, I knew that I would have to be involved with making movies. In 1978, I was taking film production courses at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, CA. I remember casually mentioning to my instructor one day that I planned to embark on producing a full-length documentary on the Marxes. I remember him chuckling and telling me that I should probably plan on devoting four years of my life to such a venture. I figured he had a screw loose. How could it possibly take four years to assemble a few film clips, photos, interviews and narration?

Extractions: The Marx Brothers - MovieActors.com A wildly popular comedy group, The Marx Brothers uniquely wacky style of comedy kept their audience in stitches in the 1930's. The Marx Brothers were, originally, Groucho (Julius Marx), Chico (Leonard Marx), Harpo (Adolph Marx), Gummo (Milton Marx), and Zeppo (Herbert Marx). Gummo bailed out early on. Zeppo played a straight man/romantic lead in five films, then exited. Groucho, Chico, and Harpo endured as the Marx Brothers we know and love. Their defining roles would be in "Duck Soup." Notable films include "Animal Crackers," "Horse Feathers," and " A Night at the Opera ." In the 1950's, Groucho had a hit as a solo performer in the TV quiz show, "You Bet Your Life."

Duck Soup
Duck Soup. July 9, 2000. BY ROGER EBERT. My father loved the marx brothers above all other comedians or, indeed, all other movie stars.
http://www.suntimes.com/ebert/greatmovies/ducksoup.html

Extractions: Zwecker July 9, 2000 BY ROGER EBERT M y father loved the Marx Brothers above all other comedians or, indeed, all other movie stars. The first movie he ever took me to was "A Day at the Races." All I remember about that experience was the fact of my father's laughter. But there was something else, too, that I understood only much later: The sound of his voice as he described the brothers. He used the tone that people employ when they are talking about how someone got away with something. That is the same tone I have heard, and used, in discussing such subjects as "Some Like It Hot," "The Producers," "Blazing Saddles," "Airplane!," Monty Python, Andy Kaufman, Saturday Night Live, "South Park," Howard Stern, "There's Something About Mary" and "Being John Malkovich"and even movies that are only indirectly comedies, like "Pulp Fiction." There is a kind of admiration for material that dares something against the rules and yet is obvious, irresistibly, funny. How much more anarchic the Marx Brothers must have seemed in their time than we can understand today. They were among the first to evoke that tone; you can see who the Marx Brothers inspired, but not who they were inspired by, except indirectly by the rich traditions of music hall, vaudeville and Yiddish comedy that nurtured them. Movies gave them a mass audience, and they were the instrument that translated what was once essentially a Jewish style of humor into the dominant note of American comedy. Although they were not taken as seriously, they were as surrealist as Dali, as shocking as Stravinsky, as verbally outrageous as Gertrude Stein, as alienated as Kafka. Because they worked the genres of slapstick and screwball, they did not get the same kind of attention, but their effect on the popular mind was probably more influential. "As an absurdist essay on politics and warfare," wrote the British critic Patrick McCray, " `Duck Soup' can stand alongside (or even above) the works of Beckett and Ionesco."
