the Marx Brothers
/ðə ˈmɑːks brʌðəz/
/ðə ˈmɑːrks brʌðərz/
- a US comedy team of three brothers who made films full of crazy visual humour and quick, clever jokes. They were ‘Groucho’ (Julius) Marx (1890-1977), ‘Chico’ (Leonard) Marx (1886-1961) and ‘Harpo’ (Adolph) Marx (1888-1964). Their films included Duck Soup (1933) and A Day at the Races (1937). Groucho wore glasses and a large false moustache, walked in a funny way and smoked cigars. Chico played the piano, wore a pointed hat and spoke like an Italian-American. Harpo never spoke, played the harp and chased girls. Groucho later had his own comedy television quiz show, You Bet Your Life (1950-61).
马克思兄弟：由三兄弟组成的美国喜剧团队，他们制作的电影充满了疯狂的视觉幽默和快速，巧妙的笑话。他们是“格鲁乔”（朱利叶斯）马克思（1890-1977），“奇科”（伦纳德）马克思（1886-1961）和“哈珀”（阿道夫）马克思（1888-1964）。他们的电影包括《鸭汤》（Duck Soup，1933年）和《一日游》（A Day at the Races，1937年）。格劳乔戴着眼镜，戴着大假胡须，以滑稽的方式走着，抽着雪茄。奇科（Chico）弹钢琴，戴着尖顶帽子，说话像意大利裔美国人。Harpo从没说话，没有弹奏竖琴，也没有追赶过女孩。格劳乔（Groucho）后来开了自己的喜剧电视问答节目《赌注你的生命》（You Bet Your Life，1950-61）。
