	A Day at the Races (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Day at the Races (1937) is the seventh movie starring the three Marx Brothers, with Margaret Dumont, Allan Jones and Maureen O'Sullivan.
		Often considered one of the funniest scenes in the movie, Chico gives Groucho a tip on a horse, but in code, so that Groucho has to buy book after book from Chico to decipher the code (see image).
		Part of the reason they see is that the film's producer, and the Brothers' leading advocate at MGM, Irving Thalberg, died in mid production and thus the studio executive who best understood the Brothers' humor was gone.

	A Day at the Races
		The races lost their footing in the movies as national interest in the sport waned.
		It is also a finely crafted movie about a horse that was the living embodiment of all the old horse-movie themes.
		In the racing scenes, the camera moves from wide shots of the horses thundering down the track to extreme close-ups of Maguire working the reins, the images shot from side on and front, the choppy editing allowing the thrill of the ride to ripple through every shot like an electric current.

		Her first on-screen appearance was as an extra in a 1935 Our Gang short, Teacher's Beau.
		The Dandridge Sisters traveled all over the world and even perfomed at the world famous Cotton Club with the Nicholas Brothers; Dorothy would later marry Harold Nicholas and have one child, Harolyn, with him before they divorced.
		Dorothy Dandridge did not receive another role until 1940, when she appeared in a so-called "race film" in which she played a murderer at the age of 19.

		He was born in and shipped from California, where the horse could have run in yesterday's $1 million Grade I race at Del Mar. Instead, the stitched-up warrior stepped down to the $250,000 Grade III Mile at Emerald Downs and dope-slapped the locals so hard he left welts bigger than the average jockey.
		I mean, if an entire industry is counting on a movie to turn around public perceptions, it isn't a stretch to ask for a great local horse to light up some imaginations.

		A Day at the Races was the Marx Brothers' follow-up to their incomparable A Night at the Opera.
		After several side-splitting routines--Chico selling Groucho tips on the races, Chico and Harpo rescuing Groucho from the clutches of femme fatale Esther Muir, all three Marxes conducting a lunatic "examination" of Margaret Dumont--the fate of the sanitarium rests on a Big Race involving Hi-Hat, a horse belonging to the film's nominal hero, Allan Jones.
		Even so, Day at the Races made more money than any other previous Marx Brothers film--the result being that MGM, in the spirit of "they loved it once", would continue recycling Races' best bits for the studio's next three Marx vehicles.

	DVD Verdict Review - A Day At The Races
		The second of their films with MGM and the final with producer Irving Thalberg, A Day at the Races is the last of the top-tier Marx Brothers pictures.
		A Day at the Race's version is set in the nightclub where Gil works, and comes on the heels of the first of the elaborate musical numbers.
		From the MGM vaults we've got A Night at the Movies, an Academy Award-winning short film by Robert Benchley that has no relation to the Marx Brothers, but was released the same year as A Day at the Races.

		The past two days have seen a torrent of guerrilla-style ambushes that have killed at least three U.S. soldiers, with a fourth dying in a non-combat accident.
		Two U.S. soldiers remained missing Friday night, three days after their apparent abduction from a guard post north of the capital.
		The main difference between the American occupation of Iraq and the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories, it seems, is that nobody in Baghdad has a roadmap to peace.

		A DAY AT THE RACES is the second of the Marx/Wood/Thalberg collaborations (Marx Brothers, director Sam Wood and producer Irving Thalberg) movies made at MGM, the first the delightful A NIGHT AT THE OPERA.
		For all of its classic comedy, "A Day at the Races" (1937) signals the beginning of the Marx Brothers' creative decline after the death of producer Irving Thalberg.
		If Thalberg had lived, "A Day at the Races" might have been a worthy follow-up to "A Night at the Opera." Instead, the brilliance of Groucho, Chico and particularly Harpo is undermined by obvious studio tampering.

		There was no way that Queen could top their 1975 masterpiece A Night at the Opera and its epic single "Bohemian Rhapsody," so they did the next best thing -- they recorded a companion album, 1976's A Day at the Races.
		Although not as meticulously detailed or all-encompassing as its brilliant predecessor, A Day at the Races showed that the band was shedding its five-minute-plus epics in favor of more succinct songs, and becoming one of the world's top rock bands in the process.
		A Day at the Races proved to Queen's detractors that the band hadn't run out of steam with the colossal A Night at the Opera.

		Oh sure, A NIGHT AT THE OPERA and A DAY AT THE RACES are almost universally praised, but the rest fail to completely satisfy the masses.
		NIGHT and DAY are rightfully regarded as classics (12th and 59th respectively on the American Film Institute's list of the hundred funniest films), and the rest of the films are at least amusing and entertaining.
		The two female romantic leads from NIGHT and DAY are, in fact, still alive and remarkably coherent; while it's nice to hear from contemporary "comedians" about what a great influence the Brothers were and are, it's more satisfying to hear from the co-stars themselves about how the Brothers were to work with.

		Thalberg died suddenly, at the age of 37, before the movie was complete.
		Thalberg employed an interesting method of test marketing in the making of both the movies he produced for the Marx Brothers.
		The Marx Brothers continued to make movies after Thalberg's death, but their hearts (especially Groucho's) just weren't in it anymore.

		It's a movie of loosely strung-together set-pieces (of course), and one wants to watch individual scenes rather than sit through the whole show.
		Groucho's mastery of verbal and physical comedy remains immensely compelling and Harpo is an excellent clown, but the plot is rather tiresome as well as being (of course) total nonsense, and the male romantic lead (Allan Jones) is a prize bore to end all prize bores.

	VH1.com : Movies : Movie : A Day at the Races : Review
		The follow-up to A Night at the Opera (arguably the Marx Brothers's best film), A Day at the Races falls a little short of the mark in comparison with Opera, but is still lunatic fun of a high order.
		Several classic routines -- including "tutsi-fruitis," in which Chico keeps conning Groucho into buying racing tip books, a riotous medical exam, and a wallpapering sequence -- make the film memorable, as does the extended race finale, which manages to be both terribly funny and moderately tense.
		Races would be the last of the Marx Brothers' classic films; while follow-ups like Room Service have some wonderful moments, they lack the sparkle found in the boys' best work.

		Includes A NIGHT AT THE OPERA (1935), A DAY AT THE RACES (1937), and A NIGHT IN CASABLANCA (1946), as well as four films that are not available separately: ROOM SERVICE (1938), AT THE CIRCUS (1939), GO WEST (1940), and THE BIG STORE (1941).
		Most of the extras on the post-1937 films have nothing to do with the actual films themselves, apart from the movie trailers and a few other things, like some audio features ("Where There's Music" from 'The Big Store,' recorded by the dull annoying Tony Martin, and the radio promo for 'Go West').
		Still, it's admirable how they probably wanted to include them to give the viewer a better picture of what an actual night at the movies was like in the Thirties and Forties.

		Now, I understand that Days of Thunder was a ‘movie’ and wasn’t ‘real,’ but to us carpetbaggers, Tom Cruise’s Trickle is the closest I have ever been to NASCAR.
		I knew beforehand that you only really needed to watch the last 25 laps of a NASCAR race to see the most exciting parts, the jockeying for position.
		But I learned today that by watching the whole race, it kind of plays out like baseball: You can be in control for the whole race like Tony Stewart and see it evaporate in the final 10 laps.

		A Day at the Races is the Marx Brothers at their commercial and popular peak, working with a top Hollywood director (Sam Wood of The Pride of the Yankees), supported with a healthy screen budget paying for such extras as a blue-tinted ballet sequence, love songs from crooner Allan Jones and decorative sets.
		The plot isn't the reason for watching the movie (it never is with Marx Bros films!) - you should get this video to watch the madcap antics of the three stars.
		One fact that Marx-fans should also note is that there's currently a two-film video available on Amazon, containing both this film and 'A Day at the Races' for pretty much the same price.
