I used to wonder why everyone went on about Steve Martin. Then I saw The Jerk. One of the funniest film I've ever seen.
Saw The Man With Two Brains recently, loved it!
Dead Men don't wear Plaid is another brilliant Steve Martin movie
Stay away from the cans lol
love him in little shop of horrors too. if you couldn't tell
Steve wasn't your ordinary "comedian". He's always been one helluva banjo player, and become an amazing actor from the days of Saturday Night Live's "Two Wild and Crazy Guys" with Dan Akroyd.
This movie has become such a classic. A week and half ago, my son who 20 and I'm 53, we're coming home and saw a guy delivering the new phone directories and he and I looked at each other and without missing a beat:"The new phone books are here, the new phone books, are here."
that's funny.
oh man, I busted out laughing. that's awesome .
this happened to me and my nephew. Someone asked me to put a top 10 list of great moments of my life. this one made it
I had my hands full climbing the stairs and I kept stepping on the legs and they fell down. So I did the “I don’t need anything else” gag.
He's *somebody* now.
The "You Belong to Me" scene was so sweet. I don't know why anyone would have gone for popcorn. I didn't. Loved it and still do!
Not only was it sweet, it was just so honest🤗. When he explained why he didn't kiss her, I died😂😂😂😂
That is probably my favorite scene in the movie. It's such a beautiful song, such a change in tone from the rest of the film, and it has such a comedic ending. "I didn't want to get spit all over me." Ha! Brilliant!
Here's the original song by Patience and Prudence that he referred to.
th-cam.com/video/fOjVjc5vJ6I/w-d-xo.html
@@socialmoth4974 It's pure comedy gold when she produces that giant trumpet for a solo. It's so random and ridiculous, but the way he watches her play is so endearing and genuine - though we soon learn that he was imagining the flow of her spit. lol
The Ukulele was actually played by a seasoned session Musician named Lyle Ritz. He died a few years ago, but he's revered and respected by Ukulele musicians around the world. And yes, Martin Ukuleles are the finest in the world. I have a Martin 1946 Style 1 that I play every day. That song is my favorite.
my favorite gag was when rob reiner picks him outside his house and he says "how far you going" reiner says "to the end of this fence" he says "ok" gets in says "my names navin" reiner hits the brake and says "here we are" he gets out and is yelling "goodbye,i hope i can repay u someday!" as reiner drives away and they can still here him inside the house.that shit was hilarious.
And it really sells Nathan as likable, like Steve said, winning us over from the beginning, because even though the guy was being a dick to him, he was truly appreciative of the ride.
And, that’s Rob Reiner. Carl’s son and acclaimed director. (When, Harry Met Sally, Misery, A Few Good Men, etc.).
As someone who's hitchhiked all my life, I've gotten that ride. My name is Bicycle Bob and I approved this message and PeeWee Herman's great adventure is also about an innocent abroad.
OMG, I didn't remember that it was Rob. I have to go back and watch it now.
When a scene you saw as a child comes to mind every time you see new phone books delivered in people's driveways, you realize that Steve Martin owns just a tiny piece of your soul.
I say that every time I get a new phone book. Which has been some time ago. Oh hell I'm old
What is a phone book?
It’s like the Address Book app on your phone, except made out of trees rather than electrons.
Your soul belongs to God, unless you're other than human. Hollywood figures and all other idols made a deal to baphomet giving up their souls for "fame and fortune. " Don't envy them, for they are slaves.
@@TheSaltydog07 Just one form of carbon. Shred it if you're out of oatmeal.
Martin is simply one of the most genuinely funniest people I've ever seen. He never begs for a laugh. He just earns it.
Best line from the movie: Damm these glasses - "Glasses I damm thee"
HHAHAHAHA yes
The best line is clearly "This is the best Pizza in a cup guy, he drove the last pizza in a cup guy out of business"
@@llyrghmnghyll 5 years my record stood..I must be faithful to the movie and yrs, you have the best line.
Congratulations!
Best movie ever made... What people tend to miss are all the life lessons in the movie and how much his family loved him regardless of his color.
"You mean I'm gonna stay this color?!"
I couldn't agree more.
No one can ever say that Navin Johnson doesn’t know shit from Shinola! 🤣
@@billdivine9501 "The Lord loves a working man. Don't trust whitey. Go to the doctor and get rid of it."
Saving, investing. entrepreneurship. relationships, family, drinking, and more
Still one of the best comedies of all time. This and Young Frankenstein. Hands down.
Tonight you belong to me is one of the best moments in film history.
"I didn't want to get spit on me..."
"He hates these cans! Stay away from the cans!!!"
Steve Martin really accomplished a lot in life since being born into a poor black family. 🤣
“Putin’ on the ritz!”
Enough of this old wine, how about some of the new stuff?
The Sleeper has got to be up there near the top.
“St. Louis?”
“No, Navin Johnson!”
🤣🤣🤣
The Jerk educated me the difference between shit and shinola. I didn't know what shinola was.
I used to send a set of flashcards to congressmen who voted huge sums for nuclear and couldn't pronounce it. NEW. KLEE. ARE.
chesucat "son you'll be alright" 😂😂
My husband and I’s favorite joke from the movie
It really is one of the best comedies of all-time. Definitely Top 5.
I honestly think it's one of his best performances.
It is the best. Only rivals 3 amigos.
@@burna2650 the man with two brains was a great movie also.
I think Planes, Trains, and Automobiles was great.
My mother passed away at 88 last April. One thing I'll always remember is watching The Jerk with her and laughing our butts off.
I loved the movie, but I think my mom liked it better than me. Great memories, Thanks!
I discovered 'the Jerk' around 1990...loved it.....where are these movies nowadays??? 70/ 80s were great :)
The first time I saw the movie, I laughed the hardest at the "St. Louis? No, Navin Johnson" line and it's still my favorite. A few years ago, I won tickets to a Q&A show That Steve did in Worcester, MA and he mentioned that it was his favorite joke. So I figure that's the one thing that I will have in common with Steve Martin.
It is definitely one of the best movies ever made. It's the kind of movie that makes me wish I could erase my memory of it so I could enjoy watching it for the first time again.
I was a kid in the 70's-80's when the Not Ready For Prime Time Players were on SNL. Which lead to my appreciation of movies like The Jerk, The Blues Brothers, and many more of that era. SNL has changed and so has that style of quirky comedy with such an interesting brew of comedic actors. As young as I was, I understood the humor of the Jerk and along with Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is still one of my favorite Steve Martin films.
It was 1980, I believe, when I saw The Jerk for the first time. I was 10. About 2 years before this I had snuck my dad's copy of Steve Martin's, Let's Get Small, album and had listened to it so many times, I had it memorized. It got me through some tough times in my childhood. So I was very excited when The Jerk premiered. I have seen it at least 50 times. But after that first time, every year when my Birthday comes around, I always have a Twinkie and a Tab. I have done that for nearly 40 years. Last year, the only store I had known to still sell Tab, stopped selling it. So for the first time, since I was 10 years old, I was not able to have that Tab with my Twinkie. Probably never will again. Wow...that was long.
Great story 😌
this place has the best pizza in a cup ever ......ran the old pizza in a cup guy out of business. cat juggling. my special purpose!
these matches,remote control and paddle ball game. is all i need
+c laird don't forget the ashtray.

And my dog...grrr...well maybe I don't need him. Classic, one of my all-time favorite movies.
He hates these cans!

These cans are defective!!! No we have a defective person out there!!!😂😂😂
Typical Run of the Mill Bastard!

I’m picking out a thermos for you!! 🎼🎼
Not an ordinary thermos will do 😃
@@lauraryan8921 But the very best thermos you can buy, with vinyl and stripes, and a cup built right in! Oh I'm picking out a thermos for you, and maybe a barometer too, and what else can I buy, so on me you'll rely? A rear end thermometer too!
My mom braided my hair to this movie we love Steve Martin!! The Jerk is our movie ♥
I think it's absolutely hilarious that nobody seems to get the joke he tells at the beginning, about how this would be a record night if it weren't for his fee. That's almost as funny as the joke itself.
Robert S, I didn’t get that one, did it mean he charged too much or too little..?
@@youngimages2000 I think the joke is that he really didn't charge anything. I don't think its customary to be paid for those kinds of appearances. So in other words, he was making it sound like he was being really selfish - a typical Hollywood, out of touch person.
Robert Skinner, that’s not the Skinner that does history bios, is it?
His earlier standup material was superbly dry like that. He got whackier as he went on, but his best stuff was the pseudo-philosophical absurdist rambling.
"Some people have a way with words, and other people... not... have... way."
(Tells an anecdote and finishes with) "Hey, iste mundus furibundus. Oops! I forgot. You don't speak Latin."
The joke is that he is a pretentious movie star that would charge a big fee to speak at a charity event. Steve has cultivated this type of humor for years when he is hosting events. He likes to adopt the persona of someone who is "full of himself."
A visionary film that deserves preservation regardless of the times ahead.
The Jerk & Roxanne are two of my favorite movies. Steve Martin once said about creating comedy, “you’ll do everything you’ve ever known”.
What a talent.
Such a sweet hearted film, and chock-full of silliness. One of my favorite comedy movies. Anyone who would walk out on Bernadette and Steve’s touching rendition of “You Belong to Me” is devoid of humanity!
The Jerk was one of Steve Martin's best. He's a great actor / comedian and a rare talent.
All I need is this one thing….it remains my favorite scene of all time, because there is something so human, and so funny about that scene. ❤️
It's a sign of top quality professional that he could keep going and going with the "one thing" and then "and this" over and over keeping it just as funny as long as he wanted to.
This movie still makes me laugh hard I've seen it at least 100 times
Navin: How did you guys find me?
Dad: I don't know... this is the first place we looked!
"The new phone book is here! The new phone book is here!" We would shout that every year when it came...LOL
The whole scene with him leaving and "not needing anything"...just classic.
My whole family loves this film and we quote from it often. :)
I just said that today at work actually when the new phone book came.
@@joninpgh do you work in a time machine factory or something?
@@KairuHakubi I got a phone book at work about a year ago, it was more like a phone “pamphlet.”
HE HATES THESE CANS
There are so many favorite scenes and favorite lines in this movie, just like Airplane and Caddyshack
Classic, classic film Steve. I still love it, and recite lines from it but I get strange looks from the younger generation. I was one of the 3 journalists invited to the opening press conference of "The Jerk" from Santa Ana College. I was the guy with the camera. It was a great time, got a lot of fantastic shots of you and Carl.
Steve Martin is a genius and a doggone good banjo player!!
But not very considerate of ukuleles...
Yes!
This movie along with Monty Python and the Three Stooges formed the basis of humor. Shout out to The Marx Brothers and movies like Airplane and Johnny Dangerously. Thank you Steve Martin. By the way I'm old enough to remember him as a writer and bit cast member on The Carol Burnett Show.
I grew up watching The Jerk & The Man with Two Brains almost on repeat. Never got old.
Cried with laughter the first time I saw this film - in an empty cinema. It was so unexpected. There is an innocence to the humour.
Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid is another gem of a movie.
Cigarette? No thanks, Ive got tuberculosis.
I've not seen it...
I appreciate the recommendation.
Dead Men is CRIMINALLY overlooked - still one of my favourites of all time, and back then it was just amazing. I have way too much of the script in my head.
@@misteral1083 to this day i rage whenever I hear the words "CLEANING WOMAN"
@@theknockabout hahaha!! Reinemachefrau....
The number of times "That gives me four hours to wash and press your pyjamas" goes through my head in a year, for no particular reason...
Really underrated movie
I'M FINALLY SOMEBODY!
Underrated?????????????????????????????????????
By who,,?... We Love it,,!
It is in AFI's top 90 comedies of all time. Think of the thousands of comedies that have ever been made and that is hardly an underrated movie.
I hate that term, how can you've never been apart of an erra and say what's underrated? We loved this movie when it came out and Steve Martin talking about the Jerk with an open crowd 30 years later is a testament of its greatness.
I just returned to college this year. It was so funny to hear the instructor quote that line from the movie. Too bad the young students did not get it :)
It is a classic Comedy. Love it as one of my all time favs.
“Ahhhhh... It’s a PROFIT deal...” 🤣
Best thing is, it’s a funny gag, but the image of Steve Martin and Carl Reiner laughing at it all the way to work is even funnier.
Still his best movie. Just a brilliant farce with a ton of heart.
A classic!! Steve Martin is a national treasure and seems like a genuinely nice person.
And now I have to go watch it for the thirtieth time to see if I can hear the crunch of an expensive Ukelele. I liked the movie a lot when it came out and for awhile since then. But when I introduced it to my now 20 year old son when he was eleven he thought it was the greatest movie ever. He has pulled gags from that movie ever since and it still makes us laugh together today. "He really hates these cans."
OH NO! There's cans in here too!
Dear Steve Martin, You have made the world laugh many, many times.! I wanted to say, "Thank you for the wonderful memories, and all of your hard work."
It gets censored like crazy these days.
It IS one of the greatest pieces of cinema today that reflects a very innocent time when you could make jokes without people's arses tightening up.
I love it and so do millions of others.
My favorite movie of all time. First saw it before I shipped out for Korea as an Army officer. Have probably watched it thirty times. It never gets old.
This is one of my top 10 movies of all time. My family still quotes it. Often. We give each other daisy stems rather than roses! But I particurlarly love the scene where he's trying to read the note that got water on it in the bathtub.
Lisa Leone : YES !
Such an awesome comedian! I love Steve Martin! 😁❤️
I love this movie.
Carl Gottlieb is absolutely brilliant, so good that Spielberg brought him in to save the original Jaws script. So many of the little humorous scenes that made Jaws such a human story came from Gottlieb's mind.
I was chatting with John Mayall (great Blues musician) one day describing how I got into Blues and referred to this movie. I had grown up with mainly classical (my mother was a professional concert pianist) and big band music (my father's favorite). I said, "Remember in the movie 'The Jerk" where Navin hears this white bread music on the radio and says 'There must be more of this out there.' Well, I went to a friend's house and he played your album 'The Blues Alone' and also a Butterfield Blues album and I thought, 'There must be more of this out there.'"
Favorite film of all time, bar none.
Hi Max, I can see very clearly why you would say that. It's the sweetest comedy ever.
Hi, Kevin!
I've always suspected Steve Martin... besides being one of the funniest and all around most talented comedians/musicians... may also be, by far, the most intelligent. Listening to him talk over the years, I think this man is brilliant.
My favorite joke that no one ever seemed to pick up on was,
"Have you seen a little boy wearing a shirt that says, 'Bullshit' on it?"
"No but I saw some other kid wearing a shirt that says, 'Life Sucks' on it earlier."
G&R Guitar Academy, I don’t get that one either
I dont get it but I want to
@@gremlin7599 It's the scene where Navin meets Marie for the first time. She has lost track of her nephew or whatever (some little boy who was with her and who'd wandered off--maybe she was babysitting him?). She sees Navin and asks, "Excuse me, have you seen a little boy wearing a shirt that says, 'Bullshit' on it?" and he gives that silly answer.
The joke is that Navin totally misses the point that she's referring to the boy's shirt because it's something to identify him with in order make him easier to find, making his answer imply that he thinks she's asking him about the kinds of t-shirts he's seen that day, as if a normal person would strike up such an obscure topic of conversation with a random stranger.
If it helps, I didn't get the joke the first time I saw the film either. Probably not until around the third time I would imagine.
The Jerk has been one of my favorite movies ever since I saw it for the first time so many years ago. I fell in love with Steve Martin when he was a regular on SNL. (Now I have to go look up King Tut and Wild and Crazy Guys skits.) Many times just watching his facial expressions is enough to make crack me up.
I think he forgot to mention that the buffalo counter was on rodeo drive. Makes it a little funnier.
That does play much better haha
Thankfully I had good parents who showed me The Jerk when I was growing up & it remains one of my favorite movies of all time
I can suddenly think of a scene from this film and start laughing out loud. Not a good look when you're on your own on the street. The part where he starts planning the layout of the garage toilet because he thinks he's moving in "I couldn't afford this, anyway" Classic!
Next time the road is blocked by "protestors", I'll swerve to miss the one who's laughing.
i do believe that the jerk, is most likely the best thing ever produced by this industry. how that happened must be a pure stroke of luck. ...... and of course the best performance by a black man ever. thanks Steve. and everyone else involved
+rocklobster1976 and remember: "lord loves a workin' man and don't trust whitey".
Hands down best comedy ever!
+GrrrlPwr i gotta agree with you there.
@@johnjarou2357 and if you catch it, see a doctor and get rid of it
Every year when it shows up.... The New Phone Books Here, The New phone Books Here
This was brilliant. Around 2008 I ended up going with an older friend to his friends house - Carl. There was a huge poster of "Jaws". Shit. I knew who this was. I immediately said, "F Jaws - you co-wrote THE JERK!". He lit up and signed his own old copy of "The Jerk" Novelization book (all he had that he could find at home at the moment! He was much happier to hear I knew him from "The Jerk" than "Jaws" like everyone else. And I got to hear so much of this stuff from him! Yes, that opening line DID come from his stand-up, and when they first sat together, they had no idea what the story would be so they did exactly as Steve described. Carl was a gentlemen, Steve was a gentlemen (I worked with him on a film and he wrote me an unsolicited personal thank you note - a true class act). And Carl REINER - well, he's just brilliant and a world treasure. Anyway, I'm glad to have found Steve talking about the Reiner films - especially this one. As Lorne Michaels knows, "Steve hung up his white suit years ago". So it was wonderful to see SM talk about it. Thanks AFI!
P.S. Only thing is, it was Lyle Ritz who played the final track you actually hear on "You Belong to Me" - Steve may have learned to play the uke (you can tune it like a banjo so it shouldn't have been too hard for him to learn to strum), but the actual final ukulele track is by the professional Lyle Ritz. I just hoped Steve gave a shout out since he should have known that...
+Jeff Gross Thank you for the added history of the film. It's always a treat to get tidbits of info from those who are/were actually involved.
Jeff Gross How and when was Carl Reiner involved in Jaws?
Lynn Turman Carl Gottlieb is the man I was talking about. Co-wrote Jaws and The Jerk. Had I been to Carl Reiner's home, he would have been instantly recognizable of course!
Jeff Gross Thanks for the clarification.
very cool. thanks for the input
This and Blazing Saddles are two of the funniest movies ever.
One of my favorite bits is when he takes the credit card from the guys at the gas station, looks it up in the book and IMMEDIATELY notices it's a stolen card. In case you don't know, credit card companies published a near daily listing of stolen card numbers and there would be thousands of them in numerical order. If you think the print in a phone book is tiny, the credit card numbers were even smaller than the digits printed in the white pages. To find a number that fast would take an incredible amount of dumb luck.
But given Navin's dumb luck, it works.
One of the greatest films.....yes. It actually is very significant and has a certain charm that is timeless.
"I'm in the phonebook!!" I love that.
So many great comedies. Blazing Saddles, Harlem Nights,, Coming to America,, Arthur, My Cousin Vinny, Caddyshack, Airplane, and of course The Jerk are all classics. I've loved Steve Martin since his arrow-thru-the-head days.
I have always loved Steve. I bought his stand-up vinyl LP's as a kid.
Patty: "I got your name tattooed on my ass."
Navin: "Hot dog! I bet more people have seen that than the lousy ol phone book! I really am somebody!"
YES! One of THE funniest lines in the flick!
Classic Steve Martin
My favourite movie of all time
When I saw Kid Rock shoot a case of Bud Light it immediately made me think of The Jerk. He hates these cans!
The song was a fantastic part of the film!
That song still makes me cry.
Steve has always made me laugh . Two wild and crazy guy's was the first time I saw him . The Jerk is amazing.
Festrunk Brothers!
Another great subtle bit is he gets a ride in a pick up truck. But he stays in the back while his dog rides inside the cab.
THE NEW PHONE BOOKS ARE HERE, THE NEW PHONE BOOKS ARE HERE!!!
I did this when i moved out on my own, i drove to my mom and dads home in tucson. i ran up to my mother who was outside on the patio, yelling the new phone books are here! she was laughing so hard, she got up and went inside. latter i found out she had laughed so hard? she'd peed her pants.. miss you mom....
It's insane how well this movie holds up. We recently showed it to our 14 year old son who fought the idea. I have a 20-minute rule with him with movies we want to show him when he is resisting. About five minutes into this film, he turned to me and said, "does that guy have brain damage?" My son laughed the rest of the way and it's now one of his favorites, too.
Awesome writing. Five years ago I moved across the country. All my music? Gone. Most books? Charity. Movies… I kept The Jerk. Hits all the right notes.
I have wathced the Jerk so many times that I've worn out 2 VHS tapes and had to finally buy it on dvd. I know Steve Martin says jokingly in this clip that it's one of the greatest movies of all time but I really think it IS! It certainly has been one of my families favorite movies of all time. and second on that list is another Steve Martin influenced gem the 3 amigos. :)
i am proud of steve martin- he isn't pulling his collar and apologizing to the monstrous youth of today
68 years old and to this day I still say "The new phone books are here!"
It finally came up on Netflix and I think tonight is the perfect night to watch it 😁
Bernadette and you singing is one of the sweetest scenes of almost any movie. Elsewhere people wonder if she was actually playing the trumpet because she "got the fingerings right." It wouldn't surprise me if she had someone teach her how to make it look so real. Esp the "vibrato" on the keys. Funny and sweet. I read Steve wrote this part for her. Apparently they were dating at the time?
I'm pretty sure she actually knows how to play.
I've been a fan of Steve Martin since the late '70s and when I saw The Jerk in the theater, I couldn't stop laughing with tears running down my face.
Driving home after, a 15 minute drive, I had to stop 3 times because I'd start laughing so hard I'd be crying, so I had to stop, gather myself then start driving again, took half an hour to get home.
His talent is really not appreciated like it should be.
Steve Martin, Steven Wright, Ricky Gervais, all amazing talents.
I quote this movie a lot to my wife and we always laugh our asses off. Example: going through TSA at the airport, "do you have your ID? No but I brought my astronaut application".
This man shaped my sense of humor from a very young age, listening to “KingTut” on my kids Fisher/Price 45rpm player.
As I watched the movie when it was first released, I found myself saying "what a jerk!) Then I realized the story line was pretty close to my life story. I was an uninformed, clueless guy who knew nothing about a lot of things, especially girls. I finally discovered all the wonderful aspects of women, I was a "jerk" no longer. Life has been good ever since. Thank you Steve, that was a great movie and I laughed a lot!!!
Me too! He seemed so familiar! To quote Monty Python though "I got bettah."
that scene was one of my favorites as well, a beautiful scene amist all that hilarious madness.
one of the all time funniest movies ever!
Steve Martin just gets better with every movie he makes. I actaully thing his straight roles are pretty fantastic. LA story is a classic.
A true comedy classic! It doesn’t get the recognition that it deserves.
A dvd that I had imported from America....containing ZERO extras. How can we have a film of such standing, with no extras? Commentaries? Interviews? Behind the scenes? Well guess what? I don't need anything! Well, maybe, just this chair, but nothing else. Well maybe this thermos, but nothing else, etc, etc
how about the remote control and the ashtray?
I've heard that Bill Murray was in tiny part and it was cut. May be urban legend but who knows he was kinda off in Tootsie
The new Blu-ray has the goods
@@johnjarou2357 and this thermos (yeah, it was THE thermos)! This paddle ball game, this remote control, this book of matches, this lamp, and this thermos! And that's all I need!
Another 11 years have past. So much has change, and yet in the past few weeks, I've had occasion to quote lines from the movie, and people still laugh.
Two movies that I really liked because of the heart along with the comedy, 'The Jerk' and 'Uncle Buck.'
what makes it so funny is that mavis johnson is that you feel like mavis is being serious which is funny and sad at the same and is why steve martin is so funny
Bravo (I'm standinig in applause at the laptop keyboard on the inside)!
