Summary:
Arsenic and old lace: a drama critic about to marry discovers insanity runs in his family.
A night at the opera: a New York scandal, a riot on a ship, and an evening of insanity in a concert hall are some of the problems resulting from Groucho's outrageous business schemes. The goal -- to bring Milan's finest opera stars to Manhattan.
In The long, long trailer: newlyweds hit the honeymoon road with a 40-foot trailer in tow.
In Father of the bride: chaos reigns when the beautiful daughter of a family casually announces her plans to marry. What follows is a warmly humorous story, with wedding preparations, ruffled egos and the unavoidable meeting with the prospective in-laws.
