I just watched What's Up Do? last night for the first time in many, many years.
My favorite scene is definitely the courtroom scene. The performances and dialogue is so funny!
What is your favorite scene or bit?
This movie is soo funny! I love the whole thing but I love the first scene when Judy is walking through the streets causing so cars to crash and you just know she is going to be trouble. I also love when she meets Eunice and the music scene-you know where Howard meets Mr. Larabee. The dialouge in this movie is just so funny though!
Lorelai:The government will close that day.Barbra Streisand will give her final concert... again.
This movie is a comedy classic. I like the whole movie and everybody in it. But one of my favorite scenes that I laugh my head off to is. The scene where the guy is walking down the street, and all the trash cans come rolling down the street and he jumps over the wall and smashes down back first onto a table. That scene is sooo funny.
shareJudy: Has anybody ever told you you're sexy?
Simon: As a matter of fact, nobody ever has...
Judy: and they never will....
and Simon walks away in a huff swinging his hair back as he goes...
classic
that is one of the funniest moments in film history. First and second time i saw that, i cracked up for an hour. No lies!!!

Enough chaos was going non in Howard's hotel room when a man comes flying through the window.
As a kid, I liked the Chinese dragon scene.
I love the part where Hugh Simon meets Mr. Larabee and just will not let go of him.
Howard: I cant see!
Judy hands over glases.
Howard: Oh god, now i can see!
Throws glasses out of window.

The best scene was Eunice dragging the doorkeeper clutching her ankle into the ballroom, swinging her purse at all comers.
My next favorite was Fritz telling Eunice she would be safe in the bathroom as, "Snakes live in deathly fear of tile."
Austin Pendleton makes this movie all the better with his wonderful presence.
"I am not a Unis Burns, I am the Unis Burns"
"I don't have a badge for a Miss Unis Burns"
"Of course not. Miss Burns is wearing her badge. She's already gone inside the convention."
There was no reason for the man to be so adamant and outraged, and so supportive of the Miss Burns that had already gone inside. Why was he so into it? That makes it hilarious.
The Eunice Burns: 'This is an Outrage!"

My favorite line is when the Russian tells the judge that he is a doctor of music and the judge asks him if he can fix a piano.

The judge asks him if he can fix a HiFi

Oops, that was "can you fix a Hi-Fi."
Eunice to Judy: "Don't you know the meaning of propriety?"
Judy replies while disappearing down the escalator: "propriety, noun. conformity to established patterns of behaviour or manners, suitability, rightness or justice, see ettiquette!"
I loved it soooo much, I've put it to memory....
and also when Howard calls to Eunice, Judy replies: "Eunice. There's a person called Eunice?"
Love it!
how about later in the burning hotel room when Judy comes back through the window and gives it back to Eunice. "what are you doing in Howard Bannister's room don't you know the meaning of the word propriety?"
shareThe fight scene at Mr. Larabee's. The moment when the painting of the foot comes loose, swings over the doorway and absolutely colcocks a man heading towards the door. Ouch!

How about when the cabbie drops Eunice off at the docks?
cabbie: "You didn't want me to wait, did ya?"
Eunice: "Well, actually, I do."
cabbie: "I didn't think so." takes off, tires screeching
The whole drugstore thing kills me! AND...tripping the old woman...of course!
"The only person to celebrate Valentines Day the right way was Al Capone!". John Becker, M.D.
my gosh the last line!!!
I saw this movie as a kid 30 years ago and never got it ..then my best friend told me the joke in high schoool and it never clicked til last night...
Howard played by Ryan O' Neal says "I'm sorry for all those things I said"...
Judy says " Love means never having to say you're sorry" and bats her eyelashes..
Ryan O' Neal pauses and says " that's the studiest thing I ever heard"..
Judy says " I know"
then the cartoon starts...
Its the funny dig at "Love Story".. O'Neal's first big hit.
Sorry to nitpick but Ryan says "that's the dumbest thing I ever heard" but funny either way.
