| Zusammenfassung: | "Zeppo was the Marx Brother who didn't want to go into the family business. A juvenile delinquent in his teen years, before joining his brothers on stage, Zeppo balanced two careers: auto mechanic and petty criminal. Even after getting dragged into the world of entertainment-for sixteen years, he did his familial duty as a vaudeville, Broadway, and movie star-he finally made his escape from the Four Marx Brothers, making failed attempts to find steady work in real estate, screenwriting, and the restaurant business. It was only after Zeppo hit it big as a Hollywood talent agent, representing stars like Barbara Stanwyck, Fred MacMurray, and Lana Turner, that his fortunes took a turn. He bred racehorses, owned a manufacturing plant, became a citrus rancher, a commercial fisherman, and an inventor with several patents. He was, in short, a complex character, and his own family never quite figured him out. Zeppo: The Reluctant Marx Brother gives a lively account of this checkered life and career"-- |
