Synopsis
A Night in Casablanca (1946) is a Marx Brothers comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Groucho lands a job running a Moroccan hotel where, oddly, every previous manager has wound up dead.
The reason is buried in the guest rooms: a stash of treasure that a band of unrepentant Nazis means to smuggle out now that the war is over. To clear the new manager off the board, they plant a glamorous femme fatale in his path. What they get instead is chaos — silent, horn-honking Harpo, fast-talking Chico, and Groucho firing off puns quicker than the villains can plot. The packing-and-unpacking gag in the hotel suite alone is worth the runtime.
Directed by Archie Mayo, this is late-period Marx Brothers, lighter on musical numbers and heavier on pure farce. If you like old comedy that drops a joke and sprints off without explaining it, this one delivers. Stream A Night in Casablanca (1946) online on iFILM.
