Chico marx and tallulah bankhead
Log In. Weird Hollywood's Post. Weird Hollywood.
Allegedly, during the opening night party for their Broadway run of 'The Cocoanuts', Groucho informed Chico that Tallulah Bankhead had just walked into the room.
To understand Chico Marx which is pronounced Chick-o , he was a profligate skirt chaser, vaudevillian, gambler, and orchestra leader whose wife knew that he slept with anything that moved. Tallulah Bankhead, who was at the start of her career, was no slouch herself in that department, but few knew it yet. She was an attractive and wild force of nature, the kind of tornado that took out farms, mobile home parks, and marriages of all shapes and sizes.
Even after death she lives on, being played by Kathleen Turner and others in various stage productions of her life. That night, Groucho pleaded with his brother not to sully the reputation of Miss Bankhead and he promised to behave. All reactions:. Just a note. I am aware the photo is of Groucho and not Chico. Weird Hollywood replied.
Top fan. Tallulah once went to the ladies room at a hotel in Manhattan. When it was already too late, she notice there was no paper in her stall.
