Very Retro Movie Adventures: The Cocoanuts (1929)

As Marx Brothers movies go, this is definitely one of them.

“Hey, movies have sound now! We should make one!”

“Do you know how?”

“No, but neither does anyone else, so I’m technically the best at it!”

Pretty happy with the fake poster.

A poster for The Cocoanuts in the style of the poster for The Brutalist.
If Groucho won an Oscar he’d give a speech as long and rambling as Adrien Brody’s, but it would be a lot more entertaining.
