THE GREATEST COMEDIAN EVER!!!!No one was quicker on his feet than Groucho. A comedic GENIUS!!!!MARX BROTHERS RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed on all counts!
Comedic timing/quick wit is a gift not many people are born with.
True story. Cheers!
You got that right!! Wish I had this gift, I borrow from Groucho!!!
We're way past tense, we're into bungalows now
Never gets old
Explain that one lol
@@kylethedalek way past tents, into bungalows now
"This is the mechanical age!"
“The brain! The comedy brain”
Definitely 💯
I can’t get enough of Groucho!
U did a fine job here, big thank you!
🎉😊🎉❤
Thanks so much! Cheers
Pure genius and he had a heart behind his sometimes acidic wit. I never tire of the Marx brothers' movies.
Amen to all of that. Cheers.
Absolutely so quick
I cracked up more with his brothers Chico and Harpo when they were cutting up on a piano in a store. Red Skelton, Harold Lloyd, the 3 Stooges, Laurel and Hardy were also my favourites.
Cool! They were all brilliant… cheers!
LOL makes me want to watch them now! 😂🤣
Mission accomplished! Cheers
People don’t realize his influence on comedy. The absolute best!
Yes indeed! Cheers
Groucho never finished school, yet he had a very astute mind. He was a prolific letter writer and corresponded with numerous influential writers of his time. He also wrote a good number of well received books.
His letters were inducted into the Congressional library in the late 60s. They can be requested and read today by historians. That is an honor afford to very few pop culture figures.
Which tells you that for people with intellect, school never ends whether you're in an actual classroom or not. Doesn't matter. Groucho like all intellectuals read voraciously. That's what it takes :)
I just have one thing to say:
Whatever it is... I'm against it! Blessed you are, Groucho ❤🥰
PS: Bring wood! Bring wood! 🥳🥳🥳
Ha! God bless him indeed, crazy how relevant that song still is. Cheers Albert 👊
I liked your excellent analysis. Indeed he was a genius!!!
Thanks! 🙏
That mischievous grin of his alone lets you know that something good is coming.
Once on "You Bet Your Life" one of the contestants had impossibly high teased up hair. He said to her,
"I'd hate to sit behind you during a hair raising movie."
Yes! He was such a joy to watch, always. All the Marx brothers were a treasure. Cheers!
Marx Brothers movies a treasure trove of tiny jokes that you'll completely miss while you're laughing at the obvious jokes. I love all their movies!
Very true. I never get tired of watching them. Cheers!
Groucho was the best!
Yes he was, cheers 👊
If you love Groucho, read "Harpo Speaks" = great book.
Yes, good call! I will do that. I have a couple of Groucho books as well, “Hello I Must Be Going” and “Love, Groucho”. Cheers 👊
Man was a genius. Marx brothers were all brilliant!
Yes indeed. Do you have a favorite Marx Bros. film?
@@prodigioussaps Every Christmas they used to show a few of them on Channel 4 here in the UK. Was a tradition to all have a cuppa tea with biscuits and watch a Marx Brothers movie with the family. I think my favourite has to be a Day at the Races. I love the scene where Groucho (Dr. Hackenbush) goes to place a bet at the track only for Chico to sell him books and books of gambling codes. Always makes me laugh. It's hard to choose tho. At the Circus, Monkey Business, Horse Feathers and Duck Soup are right up there!
@@prodigioussaps What's your favourite, out of interest?
Brendan says: "That’s impossible to answer! Some days it’s DUCK SOUP some days it’s A NIGHT AT THE OPERA then back to ANIMAL CRACKERS."
For me at the moment it's ANIMAL CRACKERS because I know those routines so well, and I love "Hello I Must Be Going" so much. But also that mirror scene in DUCK SOUP is hard to top.
@@prodigioussaps That's why I get stuck on a Day at the Races. Too many amazing scenes to even fathom.
Of course Chandler’s name really isn’t Chandler, so it makes a certain amount of sense in the long run
Aye, the whole thing is a beautiful labyrinth of absurdity.
Gotta have intellect to be funny. Intellect? What's that? Sadly seems to be missing today. Haha. Groucho and brothers were ahead of their time.
I wonder if this was done on Broadway and decided to leave it in.
That's what a couple people have told us, but I don't know where the info is sourced from. Entirely likely, though.
@@prodigioussaps I really only came to that conclusion in the past 2 years! I was studying Gog/Magog. Being very familiar with Revelation 20 and how it takes place at the end of the millennium. But most pastors are teaching that it will occur during the great tribulation and referred to Ezekiel 38-39 which I was not familiar with. So I went to Ezekiel to check the context. If this is the same Gog/Magog was as Revelation 20, then there will be context about the millennium and the first resurrection. Starting in 38, Gog attacks a city with no bars and gates. Sounds like the millennium. I went back to 37 and low and behold, you have the dry bones coming to life! Which I believe is the first resurrection. Of course 99% of pastors believe it is Isreal becoming a nation again. But you go back further in Ezekiel and you will find that Jerusalem is the whore who rides the beast! I believe Kabbalah is the mother of harlots, and Christian apostasies (Jesuits, Rosecrucians, Free Masons, New Apostolic Reformation, Dispensationalism, etc) are the daughters of the harlot!
@@prodigioussaps In other words, read study Ezekiel and Revelation on your own, and don't listen to outside commentary by general Christian leaders. Don't even take my word for it.
Groucho died the same week as ELVIS.
.....SO THE WORLD DIDN'T CARE
Damn it Elvis! 🥸😉
It's not that the world didn't care...
It's more that the newspapers didn't care,
therefore the world didn't know.
@@dugfalsetti9448 FARRAH FAWCETT same day as MICHAEL JACKSON.....OUCH
Groucho was aware of the the band Queen's album "Night at the Opera", and sent the band a telegram wishing them well. We all know what happened with that! Bismillah!
