It's another Throwback Thursday. Today we're turning the clock back 74 years to revisit a comedy classic.
In the 1946 Marx Brothers film A Night in Casablanca Ronald Kornblow (Groucho Marx) takes over as the manager of a luxurious hotel in Casablanca, in the aftermath of World War II.
After discovering that both of his predecessors had been murdered, Kornblow begins to fear for his safety -- especially when Nazi Count Pfefferman (Sig Ruman) tries to take over Kornblow's job in a bid to get his hands on valuable items that were stashed in the hotel by the Nazis at the tail end of the war.
In this funny clip from the film, Harpo Marx overhears a plot to kill Kornblow and uses his skills at pantomime and whistling to tip off Chico Marx (Groucho's bodyguard) about the plot.
Enjoy!

Not their best. Better when they were in the hands of Irving Thalburg.
