		Although the Marx Brothers' theatrical characters were based on real people and actual experiences, their mannerisms and costumes were developed through trial and error during their years in vaudeville.
		He also allowed the Marx Brothers to try out material for their next picture in front of audiences on a road tour; this was especially helpful, as the Marx Brothers had always depended heavily on the reaction of live audiences to their ad libs.
		Zeppo, who was born in 1901, lived in Palm Springs and had not been associated with show business for years before he, too, passed away in 1979.

		Zeppo as usual is a contrastingly rational assistant.
		The Marxes' polar opposite, the solidly ever-dignified Margaret Dumont, reprises her stage role as a wealthy dowager pursued by Groucho after his inimitable fashion.
		When they moved into movies, the Marx Brothers began with stage successes, and some of their original movies were honed by taking preliminary versions on the road.

		Jack Benny, who roomed with Zeppo on a vaudeville tour said, "Zeppo off stage was like Groucho on stage." When Groucho had an appendectomy while on a vaudeville tour in 1930, Zeppo went on stage in costume as Groucho, and audiences were none the wiser.
		When Zeppo left the Marx Brothers (as Gummo had years before) Groucho said, "His roles were thankless and much of the time all he was required to do was show up.

		Herbert was the baby of the Marx family, born on February 25th, 1901.
		For better or worse, fairly or otherwise, he will always be considered as the "other" Marx Brother, almost an afterthought in any discussion of the brothers and their ouvre.
		To come off badly in a comparison with three comedy genii may seem to carry no shame, but Zeppo's constant relegation to minor roles on the sidelines must have rankled, and he stopped appearing in the brothers' films after "Duck Soup".

		(Salvador Dali was a Marx Brothers fan, with a special affection for mute Harpo, who existed on a plane all his own like a crazed angel.) Their fast and lunatic humor ran the gamut from lowbrow slapstick and punning to sophisticated verbal and visual horseplay.
		Zeppo — whom Groucho said was the funniest of the bunch — got stuck with thankless straight-man roles that didn't allow him to show off his talents.
		Zeppo is the desk clerk Jamison, Chico an "idle roomer," and Harpo his "silent partner." Lines of high-stepping chorus girls play the bellhops.

	Marxism : Weatherfish Looks at the Marx Brothers Films
		This film gives Zeppo the closest thing to a real role than in any of the films, and one wonders if his brothers didn't like it, as he was demoted to valet in the next (and his last) film.
		Zeppo Marx secured the rights for the Broadway production (which according to the film's trailer, was the highest price paid for rights to a Broadway show), and RKO produced the film.
		How can the Marx Brothers compete with the goings on at the circus, which means they're just another 'act' in the show, wheras they are at their best when poking fun at highbrow culture, not down in the sawdust.

	DVD Review of Duck Soup, starring Groucho Marx, Chico Marx, Harpo Marx, Zeppo Marx, Margaret Dumont
		Add the Marx brothers (Groucho, Chico, Harpo and the long-suffering Zeppo), add the ultimate straight person (Margaret Dumont), stir well and you'll be serving Duck Soup.
		The plot (which is probably the least important part of a Marx Brothers movie) is that the tiny nation of Freedonia is in dire financial straights.
		This was Zeppo's final film with the brothers; not due to lack of talent, but he simply couldn't compete with the on-screen antics of his brothers.

	Zeppo Marx -- Natal Chart Interpretation
		It is unlikely, though, that Zeppo was in danger of either making himself a martyr for anyone or getting lost in the clouds, thanks to the counterbalance of a number of aggressive influences.
		The Venus placement also indicates an offbeat or futuristic sense of aesthetics (drawn to the latest gadgets, which is also a characteristic of Moon in Gemini), and a creative nature that is inventive and pushes beyond existing rules and boundaries.
		Mars in Virgo shows that Zeppo was very good with his hands and capable of detail work; he could probably fix lots of things and no doubt, given his Gemini and Aquarian planets, figure out and handle all sorts of new-fangled machines.

		If you really want to learn about the Marx brothers, I recommend reading the books Harpo Speaks and Groucho and Me. What this DVD does give you, however, is a look at some of their work which never made it far.
		This recaps the lives of the "5" Marx Brothers...and let us know there was actually a 6th but he died prior to the birth of Chico.
		Included here is material shot for the aborted Marx Brothers 50's TV series which (if not for Chico's deteriorating health) would have featured Groucho, Harpo, and Chico as guardian angels (the theological implications of this are astounding).

		Herbert “Zeppo” Marx generated scores of attention for the years he served as the “straight-man” in the comedy routines of the Marx Brothers early in the 20th Century.
		For instance, Taylor notes it was Zeppo Marx who invented the Marman clamp, which held the atomic bomb during World War II and which remains the industry standard in just about every moving vehicle to this day.
		Taylor’s biography of Zeppo Marx is expected to be ready for publication in early 2004.

	Review of Animal Crackers, starring Groucho Marx, Chico Marx, Harpo Marx, Zeppo Marx, Margaret Dumont
		Released in 1930, Animal Crackers is the Marx Brothers' second film, and full of the manic energy for which Groucho Marx, Chico and Harpo are known.
		In a nutshell, the Marx Brothers become involved in a high society party, where a theft occurs -- leaving them embroiled in finding the crook and clearing their names.
		This second Marx Brothers classic has Groucho playing Captain Spaulding (an inside joke pertaining to a renowned Hollywood drug pusher), whose song "Hooray for Captain Spaulding" became his signature anthem.
