Two years earlier (1972), a friend and saw his last one man show at Carnegie Hall. He was incredible. He aged so much in those two years. After Chico’s funeral, a reporter asked Groucho, “How do you feel about your brother’s death?” to which he snapped, “Not as bad as he does.” I sure miss them and grateful for clips like this.

@@rackinfrackin i have a guess, Louis B. Mayer. one of the founders of MGM Studios had it out for Groucho specifically. After His death in 1957, Mayer wouldn't have much influence. But by that point Groucho was more well known for "You Bet Your Life". The late 60's thru the 70's saw a huge resurgence of interest in his films. By the time the Academy gave him the award, it was likely because they knew they were running out of time. Since he was 83 & a well known cigar smoker from the age of sixteen.. they probably thought if they didn't do it then they wouldn't get another chance.. after all it took them until 2 years prior to this to give Chaplin one.

They brought so much joy and laughter to the world. They made us love them... And I love them to this very day. All you have to do is look at them and you find yourself smiling. That’s love.. We should all surely be grateful that their act has been preserved there on film for all time.

Great man. I love the story about his son borrowing the car only if he arrived home by - I think - 10pm. His son was a couple of hrs late and turned off the motor and coasted down the driveway. He crept out of the car and quietly closed the door. As he approached the house Groucho popped his head out the window and said, in that typical Groucho way, "I heard that..." :-) Fondly remembered.

Without doubt, one of the greats in cinematic comedy. Duck Soup is my all time favourite.

Simply the greatest wit/comic/genius to ever appear in front of the camera in the 20th century (and since) as far as I'm concerned!

No better man, actor, comedian, along with his brothers were more deserving. A legend, that will never be duplicated.
