Duck Soup was a series of gags and jokes, but it had a plot line. The Way Things Go is a series of stunts, but did not really have a plot line, unless the plot was to knock objects over and use acid to continue the process. I was unable to see the end of the film and don’t know how the finish was but I assume an object fell over and that was the end. These films both contane a series of events, but they differ greatly because Duck Soup has a plot, whereas The Way Things Go does not have much of a plot. It seems as if the point of Duck Soup was to create a movie that the studio can make money from, and The Way Things Go is an art film designed for people with art in mind, and Duck Soup is for a general audience, who watch for humor, a good time.
