The Big Store (1941)
9/10
Not their best but my it is my favourite;)

Its 1941 and the brothers had been going for a few decades now and where starting to slow down. The film fills in between the insanity with some music numbers, you either like the music or don't (I did).

Groucho is doing fine as usual opposite the unknown Marx brother Ms Dumont, insulting the uptight store manager and doing not too shabbily in the music numbers.

Chico is as usual smashing it on the piano as well as bouncing insults back and forth with Groucho.

But its Harpo who steals the show with his best Harp scene ever and a wonderfully insane chase at the end.

Yes time was catching up with them here but The Big Store: allowed them one last A class film!
