Remembrances of Laughs Past
One of the many things that the death of Paul Reubens brought to mind was that he was the author of one of the most iconic and hysterical scenes I watched in my childhood, one of those rare moments where I can still remember how hard I laughed first witnessing a bit or sequence in a movie. With that in mind I compiled a list of some memorable (to me) comedic sequences that left their mark on me.
“The Lady I Know” at Comic Relief 1990
Barroom Scene in Pee Wee’s Big Adventure (1985)
The tent scene in Austin Powers The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999)
The Fight in Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)
The Boxing Match from City Lights (1931)
The square dance in Hillbilly Hare (1950)
The Movie Rat
