Synopsis

Sensational comedy from brothers Groucho, Harpo and Chico as they put a sanatorium in a spin when they try and save it with the help of one of the patients who owns a racehorse. The brisk script offers glorious comedy set pieces. Look out for a young Dorothy Dandridge in the farmyard scene. Made in black and white.
