Arts patron Mrs.Clayoppl intends to pay pompous opera star Lassparri$1000 per performance.Hey,maybe that's why they call it grand opera!Grand comedy,too,as Groucho,Chico and Harop cram a ship's stateroom and more than wall-to-wall gags,one-liners,musical riffs and two hard-boiled eggs-all while skewering Lassparri's schemes and helping two yung hopefuls get a break.To save the opera,our heroes must first destroy it.And they must also gain ocean passage as stowaways,pull the wool over the eyes of City Hall,shred legal mumbo-jumbo into a Sanity Clause,pester dowager Claypool and unleash so much glee that many say this is the best Marx Brothers movie.Seeing is believing.
