During the Florida land boom, the Marx Brothers run a hotel, auction off some land and thwart a jewel robbery.

VIBE

A whirlwind of anarchic energy and rapid-fire gags. Expect nonsensical dialogue, physical comedy, and a joyous embrace of pure, unadulterated silliness. It's a delightful, chaotic ride through the absurdity of human ambition.
