Synopsis
Animal Crackers is a 1930 American pre-Code comedy film starring the Marx Brothers and directed by Victor Heerman. It is based on the brothers' 1928 musical Animal Crackers by George S. Kaufman and Morrie Ryskind, with songs by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby. The screenplay was adapted by Morrie Ryskind. The film features Groucho, Harpo, Chico, and Zeppo Marx alongside Margaret Dumont and Lillian Roth. Set at a Long Island society party honoring eccentric African explorer Captain Jeffrey T. Spaulding (Groucho), the film serves as a vehicle for the Marx Brothers' comedy and absurdist routines, with a minimal plot loosely structured around the theft of a valuable painting.
