Duck soup
Leo McCarey / US, 1933
He began as a writer of jokes for television shows and newspaper columns but took to the stage to become a stand-up comedian. No wonder Woody Allen is a great admirer of the work of the Marx Brothers, especially the film that is generally acclaimed as their best: Duck Soup. Still up-tempo, this delightful comedy is part of the summer programme devoted to Woody Allen.
