Someday I hope I'll get to see Million Dollar Legs.
I'd never heard of that movie before I started trying to track down Wheeler and Woolsey's Diplomaniacs (1933), at which point both Duck Soup and Million Dollar Legs entered the conversation, but all descriptions make it sound gonzo and a deadpan heroine is an active point in its favor.
Supposedly Fleming quit film out of boredom with the hurry-up-and-wait nature of shooting (she missed the energy of a live audience) but she married Harpo Marx, so she must have liked zany comedy.
Well, he was also apparently adorable. And could talk your ear off, offstage.
