A Night at the Opera

(1935)

I have it on good authority that this is a work of comic genius, and I'll concede that the Marx Brothers (just the three funny ones here) are brilliant, but unfortunately the film also includes a romantic plot involving Kitty Carlisle and Allan Jones that's a complete snooze, and the titular night is a tad too much opera for my tastes. Best musical number is Chico's piano "All I Do Is Dream of You," even better than the dancing girls version in Singin' in the Rain.
