The number 2 Marxs Brothers is A Night at the Opera (1935). The film opens with Otis B. Driftwood (Groucho) missing a dinner with his client, the wealthy Mrs. Claypool (Margaret Dumont), in favor of another lady in the same restaurant. When they find each other in opposite tables, Otis joins Mrs. Claypool, and introduces her to Herman Gottlieb (Sig Ruman) of the New York Opera Company, also dining at the restaurant. Gottlieb tells the two of Rodolfo Lassparri (Walter Woolf King), the “greatest tenor in the world”, whom he plans to sign to his contract. Otis is enlisted to meet with Lassparri at the theater once the opera has finished, but is once again late.....*beth*
