94 The British Eyles (featuring Allen Eyles)

We’re proud to welcome Allen Eyles, author of 1966’s "The Marx Brothers: Their World of Comedy"—the first in-depth look at the team’s films—and its successor, 1992’s "The Complete Films of the Marx Brothers", for his first-ever podcast on these landmark works. The conversation ranges from Eyles’ favourite (see what we did there) British comedians to his accidental status as the world’s foremost authority on the missing "Horse Feathers" footage. Along the way, he recalls the Herculean efforts needed to study Marx films in the pre home-video era, and reflects on his evolving opinions of the Brothers' filmography. -Visit our blog at: https://www.marxbrotherscouncilpodcas... -Follow us on Bluesky: @marxbrotherscouncilpodcast.com -Follow us on X: @MarxBrosPodcast -Join 'The Marx Brothers Council' Facebook group at:   / 1389369721281242
