July 29, 1957 - March 30, 1962 First appearance of Groucho Marx on the Tonight Show with Jack Paar. Surprise appearance. Groucho want's to know why his daughter has not been paid for her appearance the other week on Jack's show? Hy Averback, sitting in for Hugh Downs, opens the midnight segment of the show announcing the guests on the program which is broadcast from Hollywood. Brief moment with Evelyn Rudie who discusses how she had to memorize so many lines for the Playhouse 90 production of "Eloise." Guest Ann Baxter discusses her role in "All About Eve." She remembers meeting Cecil B. DeMille interviewing for her part in "The Ten Commandments." Paar asks her to cry for him knowing that she has a reputation to cry at will during a scene. Oscar Levant guests and trades quips with Paar. He states that the only reason he is appearing tonight is that there were no available beds at the mental institution. Many Levant anecdotes including his request to appear on the TV show "This is Your Life" but was turned down because the producers of the show were unable to find any friends of Oscart. Levant remembers, Greta Garbo, playing for President Harry Truman in the White House. Mrs. Levant, June Gale, joins the the group and spews many remembrances related to her husband Oscar, including the shock treatments Oscar has had in the past. Levant praises Leonard Bernstein, and remembers Elsa Maxwell. Jack discusses Oscar Levant's new TV series. Jack Paar ends with the thought "How much of Oscar Levant is an act...how much is true?" NOTE: Second of four appearances with Jack Paar on The Tonight Show. Microphone recorded. However very good sound after processing by Phil Gries.
