1 | * AdaptationDisplacement: The film is much more well known than the stage play, which is impossible to revive without the Marx Brothers (though it has occasionally been mounted with actors imitating them). |
2 | * HilariousInHindsight: Chico and Harpo recognize one of the high-society partygoers as a former fishmonger named Abie, and Chico taunts him by chanting "Abie the Fish-man" in mocking singsong. Decades later, we'd be introduced to [[ComicBook/{{Hellboy}} another "fish-man" named Abe.]] |
3 | * ParodyDisplacement: Creator/EugeneOneill's ''Theatre/StrangeInterlude'', which featured characters stepping out of the action and verbalizing their inner monologues, was popular enough at the time that both the stage and screen versions of ''Animal Crackers'' featured a parody of it, but most people hear about it for the first time when Groucho says "pardon me while I have a [[TitleDrop strange interlude]]". |
