THE BIG STORE
United States | 1941 | Charles Reisner
The last of the Marx Bros’ MGM films follows two-bit detective Wolf J. Flywheel (Groucho) as he uncovers a department store manager’s nefarious plot to take control of the whole operation. With Harpo, Chico, and Margaret Dumont. The elaborate musical number “Tenement Symphony” is an embarrassing kitsch lowlight. DVD. 83 min.
