synopsis
The eccentric Rufus T. Firefly is appointed head of state of the Republic of Freedonia and goes to war with his scheming neighbor, Sylvania…
The Marx Brothers’ best movie and, not coincidentally, the one with the strongest director – Leo McCarey, who had the flexibility to give the boys their head and the discipline to make some formal sense of it.
Chicago Reader
A breathtakingly funny and imaginative spoof of war movie heroics. Totally irreverent towards patriotism, religion, diplomacy, courtroom justice, andanything even vaguely respectable… A masterpiece. »
