The Idiot Tumbles Back to the Beginning of Time 330 $aThe Anatomy of Harpo Marx is a luxuriant, detailed play-by-play account of Harpo Marx's physical movements as captured on screen. Wayne Koestenbaum guides us through the thirteen Marx Brothers films, from The Cocoanuts in 1929 to Love Happy in 1950, to focus on Harpo's chief and yet heretofore unexplored attribute-his profound and contradictory corporeality. Koestenbaum celebrates the astonishing range of Harpo's body-its kinks, sexual multiplicities, somnolence, Jewishness, "cute" pathos, and more. In a virtuosic performance, Koestenbaum's text moves gracefully from insightful analysis to cultural critique to autobiographical musing, and provides Harpo with a host of odd bedfellows, including Walter Benjamin and Barbra Streisand. 606 $aComedians - United States 606 $aComedians -- United States -- Biography 606 $aMarx, Harpo 606 $aMarx, Harpo, 1888-1964 606 $aMotion picture actors and actresses - United States 606 $aMotion picture actors and actresses -- United States -- Biography 606 $aMotion picture actors and actresses$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aComedians$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aMusic, Dance, Drama & Film$2HILCC 606 $aDrama$2HILCC 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aComedians - United States. 615 4$aComedians -- United States -- Biography. 615 4$aMarx, Harpo. 615 4$aMarx, Harpo, 1888-1964. 615 4$aMotion picture actors and actresses - United States. 615 4$aMotion picture actors and actresses -- United States -- Biography. 615 0$aMotion picture actors and actresses 615 0$aComedians 615 7$aMusic, Dance, Drama & Film 615 7$aDrama 676 $a792.702/8092 676 $aB 700 $aKoestenbaum$b Wayne$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01026248 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461708303321 996 $aThe Anatomy of Harpo Marx$92488081 997 $aUNINA
