Young Frankenstein/Funny


Pretty much the whole movie. Still:

  • The scene on the front steps of the castle with Frederick, Igor, Inga and Elizabeth. The entire filmcrew was laughing so hard they had trouble shooting it.

Frederick: "Igor, help me with the bags."
Igor: "Soitenly! You take the blond and I'll take the one in the toiban! RAWWWR..."

    • On the DVD featurettes, you can see at least half a dozen failed takes of this scene where everyone cracks up.
  • "What knockers!"
    • "Oh! Thank you, doctor!"
  • Every single moment of the "Putting On The Ritz" scene.
    • Especially Gene Wilder's dance after the light explodes and he tries to convince the monster to resume dancing. "Are you trying to make me look like a fool!?"
  • "Ain't got no body, and nobody cares for me. Yakka ta ha..."
  • -Eye-gor! -Froderick!
  • The entire scene in the classroom at the beginning.
  • The fact that Marty Feldman kept shifting his Igor (EYE-gor) hump around inspired an ad-libbed joke from Gene Wilder: "Didn't you used to have that on the other...never mind."
  • "No!...No, stop it, I won't say it!...No, I don't believe in fate...No...All right, I give, I give, I'll say it!! DESTINY! DESTINY! NO ES-CA-PING THAT FOR-ME! DESTINY! DESTINY! NO ES-CA-PING THAT FOR-ME!"
  • PUT...THE CANDLE...BACK!
  • Inspector Kemp is a walking CMoF, though perhaps his best moment is the dart scene. "Nice grouping."
  • Would you like a roll in ze hay? Roooooll, roooooooll, roll in ze haaaay!!!!"
  • "Walk this way. No, walk this way."
  • "Werewolf?" "There wolf."
  • "Ooohhh Sweet mystery of life at last I've found yooooou!"
  • "He... vas... mah... BOYFRIEND!!!"
  • "Is - that - what - you're - telling - me!?!"
  • Gene Hackman's blind hermit.
    • "Come back! I was going to make espresso!"
  • The charades scene. "Sedagive?!"
  • Kemp's nigh-unintelligible accent.

Crowd: What?
Kemp: Zootshteps, zootshteps! Follow in 'is grandfather's zootshteps!
Crowd: Ohhh.

Frederick: Let me out. Let me out of here. Get me the hell out of here. What's the matter with you people? I was joking! Don't you know a joke when you hear one? HA-HA-HA-HA. Jesus Christ, get me out of here! Open this goddamn door or I'll kick your rotten heads in! Mommy!
