Life With Groucho

There aren't too many comedians out there as good as Groucho Marx nor many with children like Arthur Marx that could write such a good book about their father.

The Groucho on show here is an affectionate, loving father, although perhaps not the best husband (in a "annoying wife with jokes" way rather than "have affairs" way) who loved nothing more than to take Arthur somewhere and then get into bizarre conversations with the locals or for that matter, stay in Los Angeles and get into bizarre conversations with locals (to the annoyance of his wife). There's also cameos from the other Marx brothers, especially following Arthur's rise to prominence as a top junior tennis player and they were after free tournament tickets.

I read the show more updated version of "My Life With Groucho", which I'd recommend as Arthur uses the opportunity (Groucho had died in the intervening years) to attack Erin Fleming, Groucho's last companion. show less
