Ruthless People and other great comedies
I just rewatched Ruthless People after 10-15 years and couldn't stop laughing. Bette Midler is an underrated actress/comedian and Danny DeVito is always a riot. If you pay enough attention, you will see "Frankie Carbone" of the movie Goodfellas in a scene.
Highly recommend. Down and Out in Beverly Hills is also great. (Just rewatched as well) What About Bob? There are others I'm going through from the 80's early 90s. Any recommendations? |

I'm trying to think of something really under the radar.
I assume most people know Better Off Dead and One Crazy Summer. Maybe Three O'Clock High? |

My sister and I thought that was the funniest movie ever made when we saw it in the theater as little kids. Revisited it in college and there were amusing parts. But it was a little hokey, certainly not an all-time classic.

One of the funniest scenes of ANY movie that I ALWAYS remember is when Michael Keaten gets off the subway in New York and runs up to the window and shouts at Henry Winkler through the window: "LOVE BROKER"

Noises Off is about as hard as I laughed at a movie.
It takes a bit to set up the payoff, but when it's in full swing of the hijinks, it just comes at you in waves. Hardest I laughed at the theatre was probably Something About Mary.

No problem at all with B/W. Watched plenty of 3 , Little Rascals, To Kill a Mockingbird, 12 Angry Men and lots more. Quote:

I'm trying to find this movie online for free to watch and I'll be damned if I can. I'm good at finding everything for the most part but this one is hard as hell.
