Elijah Espinoza The while film from screenplay to cast is Wonderful. The chemistry between Franck and George is comical! Welcome to the 90s Mr Bonks 😂😆
Henry Salisbury Watched these again recently, lockdown alone. But seriously every time I am shopping and have to buy buns or hotdog rolls, I always start a patchy version of his rant. Unfortunately not many people are as familiar with this film as you would hope.
I remember watching this movie the first time in the 90s. I fell on the floor crying from laughter. He just came out of nowhere and owned every scene. Steve Martin is just parked in the shadow the moment Short arrives. Legend.
@@lisayerry3694 Agree. Those two have incredible chemistry, and Steve's reactions make Martin seem even funnier than he already is on his own. Everything those two do togehter is gold, and we are fortunate that they are good friends and constantly work together. If you haven't already, check out Only Murders in the Building. They are outdoing themselves on every new season of that show.
I noticed usually George his wife and daughter are in one shot and Martin short in another. They could have recorded those particular takes separately (they did that with chevy chase's rant in Christmas vacation).
Steve Martin, the dad, expression when he can't understand a word Martin Short says, and when he sees $1200 for the wedding cake......funny freaking stuff.
Fun fact: The famous “Franck” voice was kind of an accident. During the making of Father of the Bride, it was suggested that Short’s character, eccentric wedding planner Franck Eggelhoffer, had an accent that was so broad, audiences wouldn’t be able to tell where he was from. Relying on his improv skills, Short played Franck a handful of different ways, giving director Charles Shyer a number of versions to choose from. Shyer ended up going with the heightened presentation seen in the movie, thus creating one of Short’s most memorable characters🙂
Love their chemistry!! Such funny guys! "Let's just choose a cake, ok? A cake, Frahnk, is made of flower and water. Welcome to the 90's, Mr. Banks!!" Fab-oo-lous! LOL
Honk is the chef Martin short is the wedding planner genius how he comes up with the characters I see these scenes from time to time to keep me human adore Martin short genius , of course love Steve Martin always has the right reactions , great cast , great movie.
Trust me , it really isn’t. Like obviously it is for a cake, but in context of how much Wedding Cakes cost, $1200 is an average priced wedding cake. Welcome to the 90’s.
Martin Short created the ultimate "impossibly gay German in America" stereotype; watch anybody making a gay German accent and that's him in this movie lol
Many of the scenes are shot from two angles and they may have used stand ins to do Shorts dialogue. In big movies like this one they use one camera only and have to shoot every scene several times from different angles. It's very common that actors act to a crew member reading the script and they edit the two angles into one. Except for the scenes where they appear together I bet they struggled not laughing. Maybe there are som blooper video somewhere.
The sentence "Mother of the bride has a bobby" just came to me as I was drinking coffee on the balcony. I had to see it again. I used to watch this movie with my sister and mother, and now there is only me. I have some great memories of lazy Sundays and the three of us , sitting on the couch, laughing our asses off.
Dragonfly0010 B.D. Wong's first-ever appearance in a film was in "The Karate Kid, Part 2". He was the boy who walked up to Daniel and Kumiko on the street and invited them to the dance. th-cam.com/video/XE6LnmR37C0/w-d-xo.html Timestamp is 0:51 😀 (in the final credits, he was listed as "Bradd Wong")
His best movie performance IMO! I can not imagine how the crew could have continued filming without losing it and laughing during the take. Amazing talent.
My son asked me what the difference between pie and cake was and even though I haven’t seen this movie in decades “wahhhding keck” popped into my head and I had to find this clip. This was a favorite movie of my mom and dad, neither who are with us any more, and I can still hear my dad laughing at Honk and Fronk in my mind. Good, good memories of a great film.
0:45. The way he laughs here sarcastically and then complains with his wrist on his hip kills me! 😂 4:32. How is this whole scene the absolute best? 🤣💀
If you are learning English, please watch with subtitles on. You will get 100% accurate syntax and grammar; most English speakers model their speech after Franc.
B.D. Wong's was _also_ in the movie "The Karate Kid, Part 2). He was the boy who walked up to Daniel and Kumiko on the street and invited them to the dance. th-cam.com/video/XE6LnmR37C0/w-d-xo.html Timestamp is 0:51 😀 (in the final credits, he was listed as "Bradd Wong")
The original Father of the Brides were definitely better movies but Martin Short’s character in the modern remakes is downright hilarious. It’s still so funny after all these years.
OMG I forgot how fabulous Marty was in this film. And how Steve just simmered throughout the whole shebang, lolololol. And it's even funnier now that we know Marty as the funniest man on Earth, with his endless comedic shtick. I challenge anyone to watch this who's having a "bad day." You will soon be rolling on the floor!
"Uh-oh! HELLLLOOOOO!!!" years before "Uh-oh! HOTDOG!!!" and his good-natured/exasperated/laughing build up to "welcome to the 90's Mr. Banks!" is just superb. Hilarious. And I love how Marty will always trys and work in being cross-eyed at least once during his character bits. Just for comic effect. And he does it briefly here with "ok please! Come with me a we talk _all about_ your big day!"
I hurt my back last and boy am I ever in a lot of pain, everytime I laugh, it hurts, I just can't stop watching Martin Short and Steve Martin here! Great scene with Diane Keaton and Kimberly Williams-Paisley!
I ove both parts of father of the bride even today ❤my fav movies when the lift door opens and George turns around to ignore Frank and his assistant 😂😂😂😂
When Martin Short is on screen, Steve Martin is his straight man. And he gets some 'fabulous' help from the great Dan Pasqueli as the tempermental caterer (you might remember him as Bill Murray's freaked out psychiatrist in Groundhog day) MUST watch Martin Short's scenes with Close Captions so you won't miss one warped and hilarious word of his fabulousness.
@@Skyprince27 HAHAHAHAHA FUCK. this reply notification shows up out of nowhere and I instantly read that in the perfect voice for some reason I'm fucking crying actual bahahaha
Fronk:"Oh oh! Orecchie non crede! Mamma e figlia incinte in stereofonic?! Io organizzo "battezzo"!" George:"No, Fronk, no!" Frank:"Ogni festa ha un guastafeste e per questo invito te, George Banks!" Ricordo ogni frame! 😂
Idk if it’s true or not but I heard Martin Short wasn’t supposed to have this funny accent. He came up with it on the fly when the cameras started rolling and the actors could NOT keep a straight face
Actually, in an interview, Short said he had to figure out an accent that the audience could understand, but could also see why Steve Martin could not understand him. Definitely not made on the fly. He did amazingly.
I wasn't even the father of the bride, I was the groom and I had the same attitude towards the cake. You realise on the day how little it actually matters too, other than for one photo. When my daughter gets married she's going to cut a loaf of bread and I'm going to photoshop a cake in afterwards.
@@samos4924 I have no idea either way, but my comment was light hearted based on the context of the comedy film featured in this video. I didn't realise this was a therapy session 👍
Martin Short should have gotten an Oscar nomination for this role. It's so hilarious and well done.

Well said!!!
Same here He is hilarious
That's Steve's job here. He's as a good as the straight man as he is the funny man.
I have to disagree….they were the dynamic duo. If Steve hadn’t freaked out, Martin wouldn’t have been half as funny!!!

“Heer is vat I sa-joost”. Martin Short is superb!

That's the name of Steve Martin's character. :)
@@Otto500206 Actually, it's George Bahncks. ;)
@@danielt.9101lmaoo
How on earth did everyone else stay in character during Short’s scenes. Zero chance I could’ve kept it together. 😂
Ever heard of multiple takes. It's not like they're filming this live.
I noticed usually George his wife and daughter are in one shot and Martin short in another. They could have recorded those particular takes separately (they did that with chevy chase's rant in Christmas vacation).
You realize this is clearly filmed in shot-reverse shot, right? The camera gets Short’s part in a separate take from the family reactions…
These are professionals. They don't care.
Steve Martin, the dad, expression when he can't understand a word Martin Short says, and when he sees $1200 for the wedding cake......funny freaking stuff.

Fronk's wodding cacks were a long running inside joke with my mum and I. Hilarious movie.
I L❤VE that. My boys repeat lines from this film to me often!!!
Same here! My mom and I quote Welcome to the 90's Mr. Bah-nks all the time lol
“Well… welcome to the 90s Mr. Banks!” Lol I still say this to my husband several times a year when he is shocked about something 😂
Love their chemistry!! Such funny guys! "Let's just choose a cake, ok? A cake, Frahnk, is made of flower and water. Welcome to the 90's, Mr. Banks!!" Fab-oo-lous! LOL
I'd like to think they filmed them separately (Martin's versus the family).
Honk is the chef Martin short is the wedding planner genius how he comes up with the characters I see these scenes from time to time to keep me human adore Martin short genius , of course love Steve Martin always has the right reactions , great cast , great movie.
30 years later and $1200 is still a ridiculous price!
😂
Way too much for George Banks
Trust me , it really isn’t.
Like obviously it is for a cake, but in context of how much Wedding Cakes cost, $1200 is an average priced wedding cake.
Welcome to the 90’s.
@@creativeamerican8811 I looked up the average price before posting, yeah 1200 was the high end of average. I still would bulk at 1200 for a cake
Welcome to the 90s, Mr Bonx
Comedy genius at work!! I love Martin Short!!
Steve Martin made another legendary performance, but Martin Short made this film.
I don't understand.
@@Ok-gm7qx Martin short doesn’t talk like this. So he made one for this movie and it was epic!

Aw. I’m sorry to hear they are gone. ❤️ It’s good that you have happy memories of them.
mother of the bride has a BABY
I L❤VE that for you!!!
This film just lights up when Martin Short appears, even better in FOTB 2 they have become almost friends and still hilarious
I watched this last night and I could not get over his little accent 🤣😂
"Every party has a pooper that's why we invited you" omg he has a song for it 😂
Geography or January?
I remember the theater cracking up over Martin Short walking around the house sounding like a wounded goose. "Hooooooonnnk! Hoooooonk!"
Franck: “Flaming! (to Nina) I’m fine! Shaven & Haven”
The best honk since Felix Unger
"Well, welcome to tha nointies Mister BAHNKS!" lmao
I NEVER REALIZED MARTIN SHORT WAS HIM! Now that moment in Season 3 of Only Murders in the Building is so much more perfect. XD

My mom always loved Franck. She still quotes him to this day.
Martin Short is a genius!! 🤣🤣
Well, welcome to 2020 Mr. Bonks!
Mr Bonks...My faverite father of the bread (bride)😂😂😂
I swear Martin Short's accent is very similar to the Serge character off Beverly hills cop. 😂😂😂😂
His best movie performance IMO! I can not imagine how the crew could have continued filming without losing it and laughing during the take. Amazing talent.
I had never found MS funny before this. His character is so bizarre and hilarious I realized his genius finally.

My God after all these years I can’t believe the assistant is Dr.Huang from Law & Order SVU 🤦🏻♀️😮🤯
He’s Morgan Brinway from Slappy and the Stinkers
I'm pretty sure he's also Dr. Wu from Jurassic World~ could be wrong tho.
He’s also Captain Shang.
And also Whiterose in Mr. Robot

I feel like Frank's nationality and language is an amalgamation of various European dialects.
I feel as though your perception is accurate.
haha yes
Oooh noooooooo... 😳
I'm the child of immigrants and it's so accurate lmao
Frank is German 😳😀. OMG ❤️🌞 Stay healthy ...with Love from Germany ❤️❤️❤️
We didn’t see the funniest line when Steve Martin says “How?” (Is Franck going to arrange the wedding) “with Subtitles?” brilliant stuff. 😂
OMG!!! Martin Short was hilarious in this!!! His accent is French, German and Jewish. It is perfect and insane!!!
Fronk and Honk 😂. This is one of those movies we watched every time it was on tv.
*_1991._** (And Short's been lovingly stealing every scene with Martin for the next 30-plus years!)* 🙌
He doesn't speak English so I'll translate 😂😂
This. This is why I ended up watching "Only Murders." And the guys (never mind Serena!) did not disappoint. Faboolus.
$1200! That’s a whole stimulus check!
I love this character when Bronson Pinchot played it first as Sierge in "Beverly Hills Cop."
He was hilarious,this character was certainly ‘inspired’ by B P’s Sierge 😅
@@Bella-fz9fy Definitely
Too funny!!! 🤣I need to watch this movie in it's entirety, I've never seen it
Ohhh Noooo.....I didn't hear that

I’m watching this while eating crunchy cereal with the volume low so I don’t wake up my family. Can’t understand a word!
Where is the "it is a black tuxado." 🤣🤣
Martin Short’s character reminds me of Surge (Bronson Pinchot) from Beverly Hills Cop. (“Get out of here!” “No, i cannot!”) They could be brothers.
Frunk comes to my mind every now and again, one of the most memorable characters in a movie ❤
istg seeing martin in only murders in the building and father of the bride at the same time making me not noticing how good he is😭😭
He is hilarious.
Steve Martin and Martin Short should have gotten Oscar noms - they were in a class above.
