The Marx Brothers in Animal Crackers

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

At a country house party the theft of an old master is the cause of an extravagant round of confusion and laughs when the Brothers become involved. Groucho makes a dramatic entrance as the African explorer Captain Spaulding, Harpo is an enigmatic professor, and somebody is really Aby the Fishmonger....But who?
