Chico, Harpo & Groucho Marx at the piano (Animal Crackers, 1930)

- Useful quotation: "Le premier film des Marx Brothers que nous ayons vu ici: Animal Crackers, m'est apparu, et il a été regardé par tout le monde comme une chose extraordinaire, comme la libération par le moyen de l'écran d'une magie particulière que les rapports coutumiers des mots et des images ne révèlent d'habitude pas, et s'il est un état caractérisé, un degré poétique distinct de l'esprit qui se puisse appeler surréalisme, Animal Crackers y participait entièrement. Dire en quoi cette sorte de magie consiste est difficile, c'est en tout cas quelque chose qui n'est pas spécifiquement cinématographique peut-être, mais qui n'appartient pas non plus au théâtre et dont seuls certains poèmes surréalistes réussis, s'il en était, pourraient donner une idée. La qualité poétique d'un film comme Animal Crackers pourrait répondre à la définition de l'humour, si ce mot n'avait depuis longtemps perdu son sens de libération intégrale, de déchirement de toute réalité dans l'esprit. Pour comprendre l'originalité puissante, totale, définitive, absolue (je n'exagère pas, j'essaie simplement de définir, et tant pis si l'enthousiasme m'entraîne) d'un film comme Animal Crackers, et par moments (en tout cas dans toute la partie de la fin) comme Monkey Business, il faudrait ajouter à l'humour la notion d'une quelque chose d'inquiétant et de tragique, d'une fatalité (ni heureuse ni malheureuse, mais pénible à formuler) qui se glisserait derrière lui comme la révélation d'une maladie atroce sur un profil d'une absolue beauté" (Antonin Artaud, Le théâtre et son double, Deux notes).
Chico was gifted on piano...
Harpo was gifted on the harp...
Groucho was just.......
GIFTED!
His instrument was guitar (duck soup, he's the only one actually playing)
Zeppo was a trumpeter (his call was played in duck soup when Harpo was in the tub)
@@coasternut3091Zeppo was gifted at inventing clamps to hold the atomic bomb on its way to destroy Nagasaki, and Gummo was gifted at inventing ways to store raincoats.
I never before noticed how beautiful Margaret Dumont is/was. She played the stuffy society matron to the hilt.
I can see her right now, bending over a hot stove... ❤️
...but I can't see the stove 🥸
Both theMarx Brothers and Three Stooges made jokes about her weight, yet she wasn't fat.
She really was a fantastic straight-woman
@@SwordHMX I may be wrong but I don't believe that Margaret Dumont ever appeared with The Stooges. (I couldn't find anything that showed she did, anyway) Symona Boniface often played much the same part in the Stooges short subjects, however, as Margaret Dumont did with the Marx Brothers.
@@heron2 She was indeed. It's a shame, IMO, that Grouch kept putting forth the idea that she never got their jokes when it was obvious not only that she did, but was playing the part to build them up and not take away from their laughs.
I could watch Chico Marx play piano all day.
He would play the same tune again and again because he can't find the ending. 😂
Chico's wife once said even after many years of marriage, her heart would still beat a little faster when she heard his approaching step. If you imagine him without the little sugar loaf hat, you realize he was actually a handsome man.
Too bad he couldn't stick to one woman at a time.

So so so underrated as a player. Nobody can play like Chico Marx. All those right hand shenanigans, anybody who plays knows how difficult that stuff is to pull off and not look like a fool. Chico does it effortlessly and you can't do anything but giggle when he does
sometimes professors teach you the wrong way or you get yourself mystified; playing the piano is tricky, as the case in many arts, but it's actually not supposed to be hard, if you find the way to do it (nothing can be obtained forcefully); childrem usually learn things quite naturally if they are really musical, and if a professor is able to lead and support them;
@@AlessandroZir very true Alessandro, but no professor would ever teach the kind of gymnastics that Chico does with his hands. You can only imagine what he would say to his student who was doing that. To tell you the truth, I'm not even sure he took lessons. They were dirt poor. It's hard to believe they would have afforded it. I guess he must have somewhere. Still, just so much fun to watch. I remember as a kid taking piano lessons thinking to myself I wonder if I could do that and every time I tried it just never worked.
@@tgirard123 look, the most important things a good professor of piano will say concerning hands is finger independence, but without any stress, interior subtle controle without visible effort, play with the ear (the sound must never be harsh, unless if you consciously intend to mock something), and using the weight of the whole arm, from the shoulders, relaxed, at easy; feel from the point of your fingers... he does all that!! you could certainly find a good piano teacher at that time, without having to pay much money;
Too bet Harpo could've finished it!
@@tgirard123 Time to swoop in with the FACTS! They did, in fact, hire a piano teacher for Chico! Unfortunately, the woman could *only teach the left hand* so he had to make up the right hand to complete the pieces he was learning. And then he passed on his knowledge third hand to Harpo.
92 years later they are still masters of their art. Pure class.
Thank God we have these recordings
Genius is about 2 levels below this.
I played this joke on my pianist teacher, and she wasn’t too impressed till she remembered what it was from
I’m not gonna lie. I wish I could have seen that.
They're my favorite! I'm a die-hard Marxist! And, to show I'm a good father, I introduced my kids to them via my complete DVD collection. Because. classical education is priceless.
So glad to know the next generation will know the Marx brothers. I made them known to my children, too. (40 years ago).
Im old enough to remember some films watched with mum and dad in the early 60’s! ..and some were repeats!? Yay!!
My Dad introduced my brother & me to the Marx brothers as well Larry, Curly, & Mo when we were very young. We tried copying them until our mother caught us. 🤣🤣
@@ozymandiaspbs Did you tell her you were a victim of soicumstance?
@@davidwalter2002 🤪🤪🤣🤣
Most amazing is that this long scene is live unedited. Nowadays it would take more than a week to do what they did in under 10 minutes. Pure comedic genius.
I think their first two films were basically just the show they did onstage, so this is something they'd been doing every night. Unique, anarchic and very funny.
There were edits in this, just well hidden
Every scene the Marxes and Stooges filmed was done in one take, not just to preserve the spontaneity, but also because the producers were stingy with the film stock. 🤪
These were filmed with sound-on-disk (Vitaphone) technology, so had to be filmed with multiple cameras in one take. The technique was copied for television (I Love Lucy.)
@@jamesscanlan6240it’s actually quite the opposite for this film,the first thing the director did was rework the script and add changes, he saw how boring the cocoanuts (1929) was and he didn’t want that to happen again.
THOSE INCREDIBLE MARX BROTHERS. WE WILL NEVER SEE THEIR LIKES AGAIN. !!!
There are many great and fine pianists; there are many great and fine comedians. But Chico and Victor Borge, with skill, timing, and unique comic personas, made that combination sheer genius, and sheer joy!
Cap spot I loved VB
Absolutely!
Aw, g'wan. I watched all the way to the end; Victor Borge wasn't anywhere in here.
@@stevejordan7275 Yes he was; he was dressed as Margaret Dumont...
@@capblood3046 Drat! I missed that!
You forget how incredibly musically talented they were.
No I haven't. Their parents insisted that all their kids play an instrument. I always enjoy the parts when they play. Even when I was a kid.
We certainly saw that in Chico & Harpo. But I was just thinking - when did we ever see Groucho do anything musical?
Aside from maybe some comedic singing (for all I know, he could have been a great vocalist, but that wouldn't have been humorous).
Fred
@@ffggddss Groucho plays guirar and sings "Everyone Says I Love You" to Thelma Todd in "Horse Feathers"....very funny scene.
@@mikewoollett Good point! I stand corrected.
I have even accompanied on my guitar, a friend who wanted to sing that song to a group. Thanks for reminding me of that wonderful silliness.
Fred
The contrast in tone between Chico's and Harpo's songs is funny in itself. The return to the first song just finishes it perfectly.
Great comedy, great music.
They were one of the best comedic teams! You'll never find anyone else like them!
them the 3 stooges n L&H
❤👍👍👍❤
One of?
@@dannyharmon6529 yes as there are a few great comedy teams
@@AceripXF Abbott and Costello were Terrific as well PERIOD!!!!!
I've never heard anyone play the piano so effortlessly.
ive never seen anyone play the piano like chico b4
Effortlessly is correct! He NEVER practiced. Before a show or a take for a film, he'd soak his hands in a sinkful of hot water for about ten minutes. That was it. 🎹
@@h.calvert3165 i wonder how he got so good if he never practiced!
Oh, yes, that is true virtuousity. Comes only with much talent and endless practice, until you find it boring to play "normal". Actually it is not playing the piano but playing with the piano. You need to be playful too, to achieve that. Of course you don't practice anymore by then.
@@AceripXF He most certainly practiced. At some time. He probably just didn't call it that; it was play. I agree with *leximatic.*
Fred
These guys are my all time favorite. I adore them. Harpo is my favorite brother but they are all great 😃👍
His book "Harpo Speaks" was fantastic!
INCIDENTALLY HARPO GOT FAMOUS FIRST. WHEN GROUCHO CHICO ZEPPO AND GUMMO WERE STILL NOT THAT WELL KNOWN HARPO WAS A CELEBRITY HANGING OUT AT THE ALGONQUIN ROUND TABLE WITH KAUFMAN PARKER BENCHLEY AND WOOLCOTT. AND WHEN THE MAN WHO CAME TO DINNER WAS VISITED BY HIS FRIEND FROM HOLLYWOOD IT WAS HARPO MARX. IN THE FILM IT WAS JIMMY DURANTE BECAUSE HARPO WAS UNAVAILABLE.
@@robertchesnosky3508 Wow. Never knew that! thanks for sharing.
Omg, Margaret’s reactions when Groucho and Chico are bantering back and forth, absolutely priceless 😆
Due credit to Margaret the she could keep a relatively straight face during those madcap routines - ! 😁
Groucho wrote 5 books, he said, that Margaret really did not 'get' their humor..one story he tells towards the end of her time on stage with them. She was in her dressing room and flowers were delivered to her. Groucho said he could tell she had sent them to herself..I think she died almost penniless if memory serves...very bittersweet...find the books if you can, most may be out of print, but, most libraries can put in a call to other libraries for copies...I laughed and laughed at the stories he told. An excellent writer..
Read that Margaret Dumont didn't have a sense of humor, least of all their humor.
I think it is just Groucho being mean. The stuff about she bought her own bouquet is bogus. It was her last appearance with Groucho on the Hollywood Palace in the 1960s. She died not long after. This stuff she don't understand any of the jokes is malarkey. You can see her sometimes suppressing a laugh. He said she asked him to explain the joke about fighting for a woman's honor. That hardly means she didn't understand sny of them as Groucho claimed.
Actually, she said she didn't understand their humor at all! Groucho said that's why it was so great to work with her. She didn't get it! She just laughed anyway. They don't make em like this anymore.
What an outrageously funny scene. After all these years it's still a classic. That simple comical tune as only Chico could perform which such style and Groucho's bored look are hilarious.
I often smile at someone's talent, at the piano, but with Chico, it's a whole different type of smile.
They were all talented musicians who learned from each other truly one of the greatest comedy teams ever God bless
I love the way Chico flips his right-handed forefinger over to the right, to play the higher notes. Definetely not approved by the ABRSM - but we can always excuse Genius!
I really love that finger-gun movement he does at the end of his song at 3:32. I have rewatched it like 10 times - so stylish.
I love, love, LOVE how Chico plays the piano. He was so amazing at it!!!!!!
I love Margaret Dumont next to Groucho trying not to laugh.
My friend, Travis, could play the piano numbers Chico does spot-on. Sadly, he passed away a few years ago. Miss him. He was a quiet genius.
im very sorry for ur friends passing RIP! maybe hes up there playing w Chico! ^_^
He must have been fantastic! Sorry he's gone.
Sorry for your loss....glad to know if him, thank you
Sorry for your loss....glad to know if him, thank you
Sorry for the loss of your friend. May he Rest in Paradise. 💚💛👌🙏
Love everything these guys made. Years ahead of their time. Genuis.
These days, celebrities are manufactured commodities. But only a few chapters back in our history we had true talent. And I’m not even a Boomer. Just a millennial with taste.
Very well said..!!
"I think I went past it" brilliant 👏
Although portrayed as cut ups , Leonard (Chicko ), Adolph( Harpo) and Julius (Groucho) were accomplished musicians. Chicko on the piano , Harpo on his namesake harp, and Groucho on guitar.
Harpo's given name was Arthur, not Adolph. Further, they were not portrayed you claim.
@@bbmtge Also, tell Wikipedia to fix all their references to Adolph, I guess.
@@bbmtge , Actually Harpo's name was actually Adolph Arthur Marx, when Hitler came into power, Harpo switched the two names around and became known as Arthur.
@@mibeatleman6767Close. He changed to Arthur after WW1. Americans didn't like Germans so Harpo americanized his name.
He was born Adolph. He didn't change it because of Hitler, but because there was a show-business attorney named Adolph Marks who was apparently very unpopular. As Adolph, he was Addie (pronounced Ah-dee). So he changed it to Arthur and was called "Artie" which sounded almost exactly the same with a New York accent.
The way he played the piano... a genius, Chico was a genius
Chico is a magnificent entertainer. Minnie made sure her boys could play an instrument. Harpo of course played the harp. Groucho played the guitar
Actually harpo couid play five other instruments in addition to the harp
When I was a little I always left during the musical parts of the Marx bothers movies. The older I get the more I appreciate them.
I still don't really care about the "love scene" singing; but as an ardent fan, I sit through them. But when Chico and Harpo do any playing, I focus on nothing else.
lmao love how margaret rolls her eyes n grins when groucho says U WOULDNT CONSIDER HUSH $ WOULD U
She was so great as the butt of his jokes.
how much to play in a sewer?...just the cover charge.
@@thebrinx9632 thats not how it goes
it goes like-a this:
Chico: when we dont reherse we dont play n if we dont play that runs into money
Groucho: i see.....how much would u charge to run into an open man hole?
Chico: just the cover charge
Groucho: we cleaned that up pretty well lets see where we stand
Chico: flat footed
Chico : I can't think of the finish
Groucho : I can't think of anything else
The master of the comeback strikes again
Inspiration for Yakko Warner.
Chico: You know what I think, I think I passed it
Groucho loved Maggie Dumont. When she auditioned he didn't tell her that they had a comedy act, and they never rehearsed together. So when Maggie came on stage in the middle of some fandango her deadpan expressions and roll of the eyes was natural; it took her a while to realize who these guys were. The four rarely separated.
I always enjoy Chico's playing; Harpo's also.
Everyone of the marx brothers were accomplished musicians chico probably the most talented of them all
Watching Chico on piano or 'Hop-oh' on the harp always amazed me!!
All were amazing. I am just discovering them after watching the PBS special about Dick Cavett and Groucho.
These guys have never been topped.
In the words of O. Henry ( William Sydney Porter, not the candy bar) he “disturbed a piano, both hands”…
My opinion, I'm 80yrs.old & I've heard hundreds of piano players and never heard one better than Chico.🤔🎵
Loved Chico's piano playing❤
- can watch them any time and they still makes me laugh.
Thank you for posting this 👍❤
God bless all y'all here
I don't believe Their will ever be another Chico Marx or a Harpo Marx they were so Gifted and so talented.
Chico would be great at parties.
I LOVE these guys' movies! I have a collection of them, and every couple of years I have to go back and dive into the insanity for a few weeks. You always knew, during the quieter moments in these movies, that a total outbreak of insanity was not far off.
We sometimes that in addition to being a supremely talented harpist, Harpo could also play piano - as a "messing-around" instrument - and play it quite well. Also, nobody played piano with quite the same style as Chico.
im taking piano lessons bc of Chico! ^_^
I think Harpo could play clarinet too - or maybe he was just pretending in “The Cocoanuts”
@@curlytoes22 No, he was playing the clarinet for real in "The Cocoanuts." Harpo also played tin whistle in "Day at the Races."
@@curlytoes22 yes he can deff play clarinet
They were all extremely superb musicians before the comedy thing. Since kids.
And all this time, I didn't even know Harpo played horseshoes.
Maybe he should have been called Horseshoe-o
There you go! My dad said he was in his school band...claimed he played the shoehorn.
Absolument jubilatoire ! Je regarde cette vidéo en boucle sans jamais me lasser.
My kids growing up appreciated the Marx Brothers. Smart kids.
Chico Marx: Funniest hands in Hollywood!
Dumont desperately trying not to laugh
The greatest comedians of all time. I love them all, but Harpo is my favorite
Even more after reading 'Harpo Speaks'
Groucho wrote 5 books, find them in your local library..they are hysterical...
@@janealexander1378 Great book!
Mine too
Most of those actors back then were accomplished musicians.
Marvellous pianist.
When Groucho was still alive in the early 70s, I had a college roommate who actually got me even more into Minnie's Boys. He went to southern CA and went by Groucho's house to get a "Lobby Card" from Duck Soup autographed. Someone answered the door and told Dale that Groucho was entertaining guests in the back yard. Dale figured he would likely lose the lobby card but he gave the guy the card and wrote Groucho a note telling him what a huge fan he was and gave him his address. Sometime later he did in fact receive a typed response and his lobby card back. The letter started out, "you call yourself a huge fan.................. Groucho went on to explain that Dale couldn't have been a real fan or he would have crashed the party, saved Groucho and gotten a signed lobby card. He went on to say that Dale didn't deserve the lobby card autographed and signed his name to that letter.
I'm so dim that when she said he was out in the backyard I probably would've taken it as an invitation and strolled right in. :D
Boy could he play.
A bar of 20 over 4 time time signature...He was way ahead of his time!
You're wrong. It's an ishkabibbal 23 skidoo.
@@bluejacketau5777 I thought it was a Fugazzi
One of the greastest talented of 4 remarkably talented brothers!!! Him and Harpo!
PLAYING FAST NOTES WITH GLOVES... INCREDIBLE.
My dad saw Chico play in London in the late forties, said it was the best mixture of comedy and musical skill he ever saw.
Groucho stands up like the Manchurian candidate before donning his jacket around his waist, he knows what he must do.
"I once kept this up for three days"
You wouldn't consider hush money, Would you?

0:50 is it my imagination or is Chico silently counting out a ridiculous number of beats per measure? (12,13, ... 16)? Brilliant comedy.
It ain’t your imagination it’s actually onscreen
Yes, so subtle and simple, but I found it totally HILARIOUS!
he counts em outloud lol

Somewhere my love lies sleeping.....with a male chorus.
A great opening salvo from Groucho.
Should have included The great Margaret Dumont. She was without doubt, the 5th Marx Brother.
He plays the piano with such confidence even he is joking!
With two or three fingers he could outperform most people that use two hands!
Masters of all time⚘
Can you imagine living next door to those brothers, as they were growing up?
The first song he’s playing is “I’m Daffy Over You”.
That was some pretty avantgarde chords Harpo started out with for 1930
This set, and the set he plays with the kids in Night At The Opera, are my two favorite piano sets of his from the films.
mine is all the times he plays lol
"Somewhere my love lies sleeping... with a male chorus." Pre code, lol.
And still so funny today, 92 years on!
Everyone of the brothers were accomplished musicians chico probably the most talented these films are well balanced the brothers play the absolute clowns then all geniuses on their musical instruments I think that's why they are still to this day the best
That’s Entertainment , Absolutely ❤️ The Marx Brothers…
thing is they ACTUALLY PLAYED THOSE INSTRUMENTS no close up of someone else hands.
I think of them as the Beatles of their time.

They were just crazy and found a very peculiar way to make a living out of it. 😸
Movie goers nowadays need action, murder, suspense, lust blood. This is simple to follow. But you must pay attention to the lines. They'll flyby and you missed it. Chicos piano playing just pulls you into his talent, and keeps you on his ride.
Mmmm id love to be on Chicos ride lol
NO swearing just to get laughs like today if a so called celebrity swears instantly the moronic audience think its funny and that is pathetic
@@johndean4765 yah i dont always like that kind of comedy (cursing all the time i mean)
He was an awesome pianist.
5:29 I smell "Night at the Opera" foreshadowing!
The moment at 4:55 when Harpo goes in to apoplexy when Chico starts the monotonous refrain again is just WAY WAY TOO FUNNY, in an overall scene truly inspired and hilarious - made all the better by both Chico's and Harpo's playing.
The early Marx Brothers movies were the best ones they ever made. After about 1935, the movies stopped being as funny because Hollywood couldn't handle their antics but, they were also wildly popular with the American public. I love the way Margaret Dumont couldn't hold her laughter whenever Groucho would make one of his snide comments.
The reason the later movies didn’t do well is because they weren’t given the opportunity to take their ideas on the road and test in front of live audiences.
Their first two movies were their Broadway plays so then had 3 years to work out and perfect the Cocoanuts and Animal Crackers ran for 191 performances plus road shows. After that it was scripts given to them. Horse feathers had bits from their vaudeville routine Fun in Hi Skule and Monkey Business had aspects of Their first Broadway show “I’ll Say She is”.
@@reedsmith6422 Actually, the main reason is that they had brilliant writers for their early movies, and mediocre ones later on. Monkey Business, Horse Feathers and Duck Soup were not tested in front of audiences at all and are three of their greatest films.
@@premanadi Duck Soup was not a box office success. It led to the end of the relationship/contract between Paramount and the Marx Brothers.
@@reedsmith6422 That's only partially true (their relationship with Paramount was souring even before Duck Soup went into production), but it is generally considered to be their finest movie. And the reason it didn't do well had nothing to do with them not taking it on the road to test in front of live audiences. Their earlier films were also not road tested and did very well. They didn't start trying out scenes in front of audiences until Night At The Opera and Day At The Races. The latter made a lot of money, but the quality of their material was already starting to diminish. They never again were assigned top-quality writers. It's really a stretch to claim that the practice of doing live shows of their upcoming material was the crucial factor in whether their films were a success. It was helpful for them to fine tune the material and time the laughs, but their previous films can hardly be faulted on those grounds. It can hardly be claimed the A Day At The Races is a better film than Horse Feather or Monkey Businesses.
Duck Soup was the sixth highest grossing film of 1933. Not exactly unsuccessful.
*When I first saw these guys in their early movies, I thought they were very funny for the time period.*
The Marks Brothers sowed in me the seeds of my love for classical music, comedy and old films, black and white but pure GOLD.
Imagine the antics around the dinner table when they were about 10 years old. Musta drove their mother crazy
I'm guessing their mother and father were pretty crazed too ... you get funny from funny.
The funniest people whoever walked the face of the earth 🌎joyous beyond belief 🤣😂
This was the guy playing the piano on the Reefer Madness movie, no kidding. What a great player 👏 👌
Groucho’s reactions are what makes the scene so funny. I want to believe that when planning this scene, Groucho told Chico to play the most annoying piano piece he could find. Rather than go to the trouble, Chico decided, “Screw it, I’ll just make it up on my own.”
the 1st song he plays IS an actual song
@@AceripXF This is true, but it's also true that Chico wrote it (though not on his own... he wrote the music but had help with the lyrics, which don't appear in this scene).
Title: 'Daffy over You' (1937).
Twenty years later, a very similar melody was used in The McGuire Sisters hit, 'Sugartime'.

Me encantan sus travesuras ! Por eso me suscribí , poco se conoció , de ellos en Mexico 🇲🇽 ya que fueron más populares , los tres chiflados y él gordo y el flaco . Pero ellos ( los hermanos Marx ) marcaron una época y dinámica de la comicidad de los años posteriores de la gran depresión ! En Estados Unidos . Excelentes ! Muchas gracias 🖖😃🇲🇽
I've never seen anyone else play with such style. 😁
it's a pity, nowadays!! we believe we are very advanced, but who among all the people we are acquainted with in our lives is able to play any simple musical instrument with such an easy and nonchalance?!!
Although he had piano lessons, he was mostly self-taught. He played piano to help bring in money for the family at an early age...
One of the many classic Marx brothers lines, (and one that fabulously shows Groucho's contention that Chico was one of the greatest straight men when he had to be): "I can't think of the finish." "That's strange, and I can't think of anything else...". Surely a line written for them by the legendary George S. Kauffman himself!
I saw a tribute/documentary to Groucho, and it was said that Kaufman said he didn't like writing for the Marx Brothers bc Groucho would rewrite it, and it would be better.
Whoever wrote what, thank you!
You've given me many many years of music, magic and memories.
Thank you, gentlemen!
I hope the the Marx Brothers get the HD restoration treatment.....timeless comedy and should be preserved forever.
