Duck Soup (1933)

In the throes of a daunting financial crisis, the humble nation of Freedonia teeters on the precipice of revolt. The weight of their monetary woes prompts them to seek aid from the affluent Mrs. Teasdale. In exchange for her financial lifeline, she insists on one peculiar condition: to install the eccentric Rufus T. Firefly as the country's president. Firefly, an unconventional leader, eschews the ceremonial grandeur and calculated reasoning of governance, inviting a whirlwind of mayhem and uproar. Simultaneously, Sylvania, the neighboring state, brews a sinister plot to destabilize Freedonia. They dispatch their hopelessly inept spies, the bumbling Chicolini and the naïve Pinky, to infiltrate Firefly's regime. Their mission: to extract top-secret information, further fueling the pandemonium that engulfs Freedonia. As the machinations of Sylvania intertwine with Firefly's unorthodox methods, a sense of impending war casts a shadow over the beleaguered nation. Amidst the ensuing chaos, the fate of Freedonia hangs precariously in the balance, making "Duck Soup" an unforgettable journey into the heart of political satire and comic absurdity.

Duck Soup is a comedy movie featuring Groucho Marx and directed by Leo McCarey.
