I don't think I need to say much about the Marx Bros.' Horse Feathers (1932). Just so you remember, it's the one about college, with Groucho singing "Whatever It Is, I'm Against It" and everyone singing (or playing on the harp) "Everyone Says I Love You". It has the "swordfish" scene. Thelma Todd is the college widow, wooed by Zeppo and everyone else.
It all ends with a big football game. Nat Pendleton, the cop from the Thin Man series, plays a ringer for the opposing team. And the whole thing is over in a little over an hour.
Written by Kalmar and Ruby, with S.J. Perleman. They wrote some of Goucho's best songs.
