Funniest single scene in the movies

Posted by danj (A) on January 4, 2002 at 00:08:10

What are your favorite funny scenes from the movies? My top 10 are:

1. The "snuffbox" scene from Laurel & Hardy's BONNIE SCOTLAND.
2. "Puttin On the Ritz" scene from YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN.
3. "Goodness had nothing to do with it..." The intro scene with Mae West in NIGHT AFTER NIGHT. Mae's first film.
4. "Walls of Jericho" in IT HAPPENED ONE NIGHT. This is a splendid film and maybe the greatest single post-silent comedy.
5. Chaplin eating his shoe in THE GOLD RUSH.
6. Buster Keaton in drag in SHERLOCK JR.
7. "It's twue..." from BLAZING SADDLES. The whole Lilly Von Schtuck character was inspired and Madeline Kahn (we miss you!) was born to play the part.
8. The Charles Laughton scene in the classic IF I HAD A MILLION.
9. The fight between Marlene Dietrich and Una Merkel in DESTRY RIDES AGAIN. Dietrich's character was the inspiration for Lilly Von Schtuck.
10.Jacques Tati's tennis game in the movie MONSIEUR HULOT'S HOLIDAY.
