This film is unbelievable... Big stars, a big Hollywood director... and what they came up with is the movie equivalent of a car wreck!
You don't want to look, but you find yourself unable not to.
Don't get me wrong, I've seen this film a dozen times and it still blows my mind how this ever got put on film. You won't believe your eyes or ears!
And Groucho Marx and half of the cast never looked more worse for wear.
By far, this is one of my favorite "bad" films. Watch it... and then blame the dog!
