Marx Brothers

This session is free and unticketed

The author of Monkey Business: The Lives and Legends of the Marx Brothers (2003), Simon Louvish talks about his passion for the sons of the German-Jewish immigrant tailor Sam Marx and his ambitious wife Minnie, whose films still inspire laughter and devotion. Satirists of pretension, folly and snobbery, the “Four Horsemen of the Apoplexy” are brought to life by Louvish’s wonderful stories of their lives and work.

Simon Louvish, educated in Jerusalem and London, teaches at the London International Film School and is the author of many novels and biographies.
