     A Night in Casablanca
1946  NR  COMEDY  1h 25min
CAST— Groucho Marx, Harpo Marx, Chico Marx, Lisette Verea, Charles Drake, Lois Collier, Dan Seymour, Sig Ruman
MUSIC— Werner Janssen  DIRECTOR— Archie Mayo

     Another Marx Brothers romp, this time showcasing the fellas’ attempts at ferreting out Nazis along the North African border at the posh Hotel Casablanca. The past managers of the hotel have all dropped like flies, so in comes Groucho (spouting his now familiar one-liners), ready to take the position and run the hotel his way. But trouble seems to be brewing: a French officer believes there to be Nazi spies lurking about the hotel, seeking a hidden treasure that they will do anything to attain. Not to worry; The Marx Brothers are too dumb to be in any real danger. With action, stunts, and laughs aplenty, this ranks among their best. Who’s sorry now?
OUR RATING— ** ½
