Horse Feathers
The Maddest Comics of the Screen!
Directed by Norman Z. McLeod
Produced by Paramount Pictures
A gleefully anarchic Marx Brothers comedy that prioritizes absurdist humor and kinetic chaos over plot coherence, built on exuberance and vaudeville-style irreverence.
Quincy Adams Wagstaff, the new president of Huxley U, hires bumblers Baravelli and Pinky to help his school win the big football game against rival Darwin U.
