slaytonf Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Lots of Marx Brothers movies New Years Eve. Why is The Cocoanuts missing? In fact, I don't remember it ever being shown on TCM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredCDobbs Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 "The Cocoanuts" will be on at 2 AM late tonight (early tomorrow morning) on the THIS TV broadcast channel. I figure that rights to this film might be owned to some other company, since it turns up on different non-TCM channels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrence1 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I was wondering the same thing. That's the one Marx Bros. movie that I've been waiting to see again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clore Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I figure that rights to this film might be owned to some other company, since it turns up on different non-TCM channels. It's a Paramount title now controlled by MCA. I bought a box set for my brother last year and it had this plus the other four titles that they made for Paramount. It's a bit crude, but not much more so than ANIMAL CRACKERS. Why TCM would air the other ones and not this one is a puzzlement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
