[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 77111, member: 1991"] All of you who love "The Birdcage" (as do I) - fabulous as it is, it isn't a patch on the original - so do a search for "La Cage Aux Folles". It is in French but with subtitles, and even funnier than the incomparable Robin Williams and breathtakingly talented Nathan Lane. And I know that is saying something. And another Mel Brooks line from "Young Frankenstein" which has our family in stitches - you turn your head to the side, press on the side of your face that is towards the front, and say slowly and deliberately, "Put the candle back..." There are so many fabulous lines from that film - "WHAT hump?" "Taffeta, darling - taffeta!" and [sung] "Ah - sweet mystery of life, at last I've found you!" And a joke closely connected to "Young Frankenstein" - there is a car crash outside the old castle. Bobby and Janice Hill are both injured, but Bobby drags Jane from the burning wreck, carries her to the castle, limping from his own horrific injuries, and knocks on the door. A hunchback opens the door, see the injured couple and says, "Come in! My master is a doctor, he can help you!" The doctor appears, says, "I,' sorry, i'm not a medical doctor, but we are so isolated here I am your only hope. Come, Igor - bring Mr & Mrs Hill to the laboratory." So they go downstairs, Igor now carrying Mrs Hill and the doctor supporting Mr Hill. Igor puts Mrs Hill on the first slab while Mr Hill, now overcome with the trauma and exhaustion, collapses on the second slab. The doctor and Igor wok on both Mr and Mrs Hill, but to no avail - Mrs Hill's injuries are too severe, and even Mr Hill succumbs. Then the doctor and Igor then try their radical, top-secret, new apparatus on both patients, but again - failure. The doctor is distraught, and retires to his tower to play his organ. As the loud chords swell and vibrate the castle, Igor notices the woman's fingers suddenly twitch, and a movement as the man's chest begins to rise and fall with each breath. He is so excited, he calls out, "Master, Master! The Hills are alive, to the sound of music!" Enjoy your movie night, won't you? Marg [/QUOTE]
