Sure there are some double entendres, but your kids won't catch them, as they are well out-of-date(1931). No sexual scenes and no violence (well, maybe a fish slap). Anyhow, there's no reason to keep anyone from watching this hilarious film.

What Parents Need to Know
About Horse Feathers
Parents need to know that kids will be exposed to a fair bit of sexual double entendre. Much of it will go over the heads of younger children. African Americans in the movie are all servants and women are scheming and sexually manipulative.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about how movie humor has changed and remained the same since the 1930s. Do today's comedies use as much physical humor as this one? What about the songs?

I didnt get it
Why does everyone think the Marks brothers are so funny? I tihnk the only part I got was the joke that Grouchy Marks made about the girl that he was talking about. Overall this was a movie that I can miss next time. Not recommended to anybody.
