Synopsis

Professor Quincy Adams Wagstaff has just been installed as the new president of Huxley College. His cavalier attitude toward education is not reserved for his son Frank, who is seeing the college widow, Connie Bailey. Frank influences Wagstaff to recruit two football players who hang out in a speakeasy, in order to beat rival school Darwin. Unfortunately, Wagstaff mistakenly hires the misfits Baravelli and Pinky. Finding out that Darwin has beaten him to the “real” players, Wagstaff enlists Baravelli and Pinky to kidnap them, which leads to an anarchic football finale. —IMDb

My favorite Marx Brothers film. Even the music numbers are funny. I could watch this for days and days and laugh my head off. Great film.

Frantic and funny, this comedy about college shows the Marx Brothers's in a frenzy that would be perfected in their next film Duck Soup.
