Harpo talks
Why do you suppose they chose to give Jacques dialogue?
With the three characters obviously being sendups of Groucho, Harpo, and Chico, why do you suppose the made this one glaring change? Especially since most of his lines were the unnecessary and were the kind of thing that Harpo would easily mime.
Is it just that Bob Nelson simply isn't as talented a mime as Harpo was?
Also, does anybody know why the Zucker Bros left this project before completion?
