A Day at the Races [DVD] [1937]

The classic Marx Brothers comedy A Day at the Races gets a fine DVD release from Warner Bros. on this disc. The film is presented in a standard full-frame transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Mono. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by Glenn Mitchell, an author who has published a book on the comedy team. Several vintage cartoon shorts, Robert Benchley's short A Night at the Movies, a song that was taken out of the finished film, and radio advertisements help make this disc necessary viewing for any Marx Brothers fan or comedy enthusiast.
