Groucho Marx

🥸 Remembering Groucho Marx who left this world 46 years ago today; August 19th, 1977.

It's funny because if you've seen the Duck Soup mirror scenes, without their individual makeup they look very similar! Chaotic Harpo is my favorite (he has a sort of angelic innocence that surfaces sometimes, especially when he plays the harp)... but I'd have to say Chico's the hottest, with that signature rakish charm.

I'm sure Zeppo was funny too, but next to the others, his generic male romantic lead, straight man persona never grabbed me.

In honor of Harpo have you ever done a hottest Marx brothers poll?

hm. no.

for those unfamiliar with the marx brothers, harpo plays bass, groucho does rhythm guitar and piano, chico plays lead, and zeppo plays the drums
