Mike said:
In this Marx Brothers comedy, there are three named female characters. Polly Potter and her mother, Mrs. Potter, almost exclusively discuss Polly's relationships with Bob Adams and Harvey Yates. Another character, Penelope, has a brief exchange of small talk with Mrs. Potter when greeted at a party, but it barely qualifies as a conversation.
