The Marx Brothers' films are packed with slapstick and obvious jokes. But beneath the laughs is a serious and biting condemnation of American culture. This book examines historical events, economic conditions, literary subjects, and popular entertainment as satirized in the films and considers the ways in which they were relevant in their era.
