May 21, 2008Otis B. Driftwood: That woman? Do you know why I sat with her? Because she reminded me of you.
Mrs. Claypool: Really?
Otis B. Driftwood: Of course, that's why I'm sitting here with you. Because you remind me of you. Your eyes, your throat, your lips! Everything about you reminds ...( read more) -
November 11, 2007What can one really say about this film that hasn't been said? It's a comedy classic - the comedy classic - and is said by many to be the defining Marx brothers' film.
