5 out of 5 stars Groucho Marxes on..........2006-02-26

I was astounded by the performance that burst forth from Frank Ferrante in this DVD. The other 2 players were also impeccable. Admittedly, I am an almost life-long fan of the Marx Bros., and was enthralled, taken back in history, and even teary at the end. Ferrante acts as Groucho at various intervals in his life from Teens to 85. He puts on the make-up as he performs, for goodnessake! Its lovingly written by none other than Grouch's son, Arthur, who first met Ferrante dressed as his father in the street - it was the fright of his life, as you can understand.
Fans must own this.
