    Hey,

    I would blame Bill Anderson, but I had too much fun. One thing I really liked about this farce is that the musical interludes were tolerable and not sopranos baying at the moon. The rest is the Marx Brothers, that says it all.

    The FBI suspected Marx of being a Communist and suggested HUAC publicly interview him. HUAC passed, "he'll tear us apart."
