EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print from the British Film Institute, we are transported back to 1935, a time when comedy was at its purest form. The image captures Harpo Marx in his element, portraying his beloved character in Sam Woods' masterpiece "A Night at the Opera". Harpo Marx, known for his surreal and slapstick style of humor, is seen here with his trademark curly hair and mischievous grin. His expressive eyes draw us into a world of laughter and absurdity. With one leg raised high above him, he showcases his incredible physicality and agility that made him an unparalleled comedic genius. The film itself is considered a classic among classics - a timeless gem that continues to captivate audiences even today. It tells the story of chaos and hilarity that ensues when the Marx Brothers infiltrate high society opera circles. Harpo's performance steals every scene he graces with his presence; using only gestures and honks from his horn as means of communication. This print serves as a reminder of Harpo Marx's immense talent and contribution to cinema history. It encapsulates the spirit of an era where laughter reigned supreme amidst challenging times. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but be reminded of the enduring power of comedy to uplift our spirits and bring joy to our lives.
