HELLZAPOPPIN' (1941)
H C POTTER
Plot
The staging of a musical, a romance, a bumbling private eye and a man who keeps wandering on with a pot plant for 'Mrs Jones'! is almost incidental to the speed, imagination and sheer craziness in a film that gives the Marx brothers a run for their money. Justifiably described as Pythonesque', Hellzapoppin is a hugely influential comedy classic that can now be seen as way ahead of its time..
