It has been deemed "culturally significant" by the Library of Congress and selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry. The British rock group Queen later paid homage to this film by naming one of their most famous albums after it (see A Night at the Opera (album)) The film contains one of the most hilarious scenes of all filmdom, when loads of people crowd into Groucho's tiny stateroom (see image). Quotation Dumont:I've been sitting right here since 7:00. Groucho:Yes, with your back to me. When I invite a woman to dinner I expect her to look at my face. That's the price she has to pay.
