    I was there for the re-premiere. Groucho was with his lady friend Erin Fleming and he wore his pith helmet and the medal he got from the French government around his neck. It was a great old Hollywood moment. The reason for the re-premiere was because the film was caught up in some litigation regarding who owned the rights.
