Showing Original Post only (View all)What are some of your favorite comedic movie scenes? (maybe some spoiler alerts) [View all]
Some of mine (in no particular order)
1) Springtime for Hitler from (1967) The Producers.
2) Dustin Hoffman revealing he's a man in Tootsie
3) Robert Preston performing in drag at the end of Victor, Victoria
4) (Not so much a scene, but a running gag) The whole "what is it?" gag in Airplane. "We've got to get these people to a hospital!" "A hospital? What is it?" "It's a big building with sick people but that's not important right now."
I know I'm leaving some out, but these are the ones that come to mind this morning.
