I was embarrassingly old before I realized that Groucho’s trademark eyebrows and mustache were grease paint 😶 BUT he did grow a real mustache later in life

“The Cocoanuts” began life as one of The Marx Brothers’ stage shows which also starred their frequent collaborator Margaret Dumont. She went on to be in 6 more of their films!

Welcome the Marx Bros. to the public domain!

Their first film THE COCOANUTS (1929) is now on Tubi in a P.D. transfer.

Distributor Shoreline Entertainment's website says their classic film P.D. titles are “legally sourced from the owner,” which may explain why the transfer looks so good.

I would put a #like on your post if it was independent and not relevant to a comment on the #PeerTube hosted movie #TheCocoanuts.

The issue you are referencing is Mastodon issue 22059. Do you have a suggestion for an appropriate hashtag for that? I see you used one hashtag #fediverse.

You are not at fault, I am. I was #sidetracked and then I encouraged everyone to post comments not relevant to the movie.

I liked the movie up to the parts I watched. Did you like it?
