    Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — A Night in Casablanca

    I recently got the WB Marx Bros Collection, and this has been my favorite one so far (I still have to watch Big Store and Go West). The only negative has been that Groucho looks so much older in this than he does in the others. It's a bit depressing. I hate being reminded that these guys are long dead.

      Sure, Groucho was 56 years old at the time, but his one-liners are the highlight of the film- he was in top form in this one!

          Frankly, in comparison to the other brothers (particularly Harpo), Groucho looks quite good in what is essentially their last movie together.

              they cant help it if they age x3 in my opinion, these guys aged VERY well. id give pretty much anything to look like harpo did when he was in his 70s. did you see him on I love lucy?! he looked like he was late 40s, maybe 50s. i thought he aged the best. perhaps chico the worst. groucho middleground.
              im glad chico was a poor gambler. a night in casablanca gave me quite a few laughs!

                  I actually thought that Groucho didn't look that bad. He looked older but not as old as Chico or Harpo. Personally I though Harpo looked the oldest (he seemed skinnier and balder). They all certainly aged well though, I didn't realize Harpo was almost 60, I thought he was in his early 50's at most.

                    Like others have mentioned, Harpo and Chico showed more signs of age in this one. THe only thing I really noticed about Groucho was the receding hairline.

                      Groucho did appear regularly first on radio and then on TV as the host of the quiz show, "You Bet Your Life".
                      I'm the kind of guy, when I move - watch my smoke. But I'm gonna need some good clothes though.

                        He was 55 when the movie was made.
