Anecdotes
The $1,450 inheritance would equate to over $14,000 in 2019.

Gaffes
The hammocks that Groucho and William Bendix are shown lying in are not navy hammocks. Navy hammocks do not have the spreaders seen on the hammocks in this film. Navy hammocks were designed to take up as little space as possible, and without the spreaders, the hammocks are safer to use and more comfortable.

Citations
Benjamin Franklin 'Benny' Linn: [speaking of his closeness with a former girlfriend] We were as one. Maybe less than that.

comedy duo potential

Benny Linn (Groucho Marx) and dim-witted Tim Dunnovan (William Bendix) are navy sailor buddies. Tim gets conned into buying a lame race horse and Benny is ordered to fix it. The horse has a twin and wacky scheme ensues. Only it gets more and more complicated.

Groucho Marx and William Bendix seem to be a good comedic pairing. They do need better writing and more banter to elevate the comedy. It feels like a missed opportunity. The premise is stupid but I'm willing to go with it for a silly comedy. The problem is that the silliness promises a lot but rarely delivers. It has a couple of fun moments but it's not enough.
