Duck Soup

In this classic comedy directed by Leo McCarey, the fictional country of Freedonia is in financial ruin and appoints the eccentric Rufus T. Firefly, played by Groucho Marx, as its leader. Chaos ensues as Firefly’s antics lead to a series of absurd and hilarious situations, with the Marx Brothers—Groucho, Harpo, Chico, and Zeppo—delivering their signature slapstick humor and sharp wit. The film is notable for its satirical take on politics and war, and while it did not receive any awards at the time, it has since become a beloved classic in the comedy genre. Interestingly, the film was not initially a box office success but has gained critical acclaim over the years. For those interested, it can be viewed for free on Soap2day.
