Don't worry about it.

Everything's gonna be all right.

- All you gotta do is climb up.

Come on. Come on.

You can do it! You bad!

I had to hook up with

the only virgin in New York.

Didn't they teach this at school?

They taught math at your school,

but you can't divide.

At least I can multiply.

You sure this is Allison's bedroom?

I know this place like

the back of my hand.

What happened?

I got the back of my

hand stuck in the toilet.

Listen to me. You gotta be quiet.

We gotta be quiet.

- Where's the light?

- Shh!

That isn't a light.

That's not the light.

And this is not the light.

That's the water pik.

Here's the plan.

I'm gonna go talk to Allison.

When I leave the room, you...

We're in here.

Just be calm.

Just be calm, and get out the window.

Ow!

- I'll meet you down by the car.

- Yeah.

I'll be all right. Don't worry about it.

Julio!

Julio!

I'll have a number three

with flour tortillas.

Mmm. Two of them.

Um, I'll have the special. Number one.

I'll have a junior salad. No dressing.

Why don't you stop carryin' on,

huh Monty?

Rate you're goin', I'll bet you a hundred

bucks you're not gonna make it.

If I bet you, then I won't make it.

Just remember:
when the going gets

tough, the tough get going.

What if you're not tough?

You gotta be strong like me.

Look. What is this? Nothin'.

Put it right out.

It's not gonna be my master.

Gimme a light, Lou.

Mmm, Monty, you gotta have discilton.

Discipline.

- Can I have your olive?

- You got extra olives?

You want the black one or the green one?

- Which one you want?

- It's up to you. Take the green one.

Just a minute Okay, you gotta

stay still. Okay, kid?

You gotta stay still.

Kid, you gotta stay still.

Monty, have you ever seen

a face like that before?

No. If I did, I'd remember it.

Okay, I'm gonna get a real

good picture now. Okay?

- Look at him! He's got my eyes.

- He's got my nose.

And my sympathy. All right.

We want some wallet-size pictures too.

This kid won't fit in a wallet-size.

Make 'em good pictures.

My wife's very particular.

What about you, John?

He's very particular too.

I'm surprised you married each other.

All right. Look, kid.

I'm tired of telling you the same thing.

You gotta stay still. I'll tell you what.

Anthony, I'm gonna make a deal with you.

Anthony, pay attention.

You gotta stay still.

If we wanna get a good picture,

We wanna get a good picture, Anthony.

Stay still. Stay still.

- Here we go, Anthony.

Be quiet.

Stay still. Quiet, will ya!

Blanche, John, grandma,

Hey, kid, be quiet, will ya?

Somebody! Will you shut

the fat little bastard up?

What is the law?

Not to go on all fours.

- That is the law.

- What is the law?

Not to shed blood.

His prices are insane!

All we need is one pin, Rodney.

Now, back to "Lost Weekend."

He who breaks the law must

go to the house of pain.

Back to the pain!

Monty.

Monty, it's 3:
00 in the morning.

Come to bed. You haven't had

a decent night's sleep in weeks.

I don't know how to sleep.

I know how to pass out.

Maybe you should see a doctor.

If I see a doctor,

I'll blow the whole thing.

They give you sleeping pills.

You know what I do when I can't sleep?

- What?

- I knit.

Maybe I'll knit myself a beer.

How about some hot milk?

It'll do you good.

I'll try anything.

- Hot milk.

- Come on.

Monty, I know what you're going through.

Do you wanna talk about it?

You know your friend Blanche Genaro?

Uh-huh.

Her kid Anthony,

I called him a fat little bastard.

Very funny. We're laughin'

and I'm out of a job.

Monty, you're a great photographer.

- You'll get another job.

- Yeah, when?

Meanwhile, I got nothing to do.

What do people do when

they're not getting loaded?

What you have to do

is change your habits.

Yeah? Who you been talking to?

Mrs. Dugan. She's an expert.

She had three husbands.

They all died of alcohol.

She's no expert, she's a carrier.

You know what I was

thinking about today?

Coney Island. When the kids were small?

Remember the time

you put Allison on the pony

and you tried to make the pony

smile to make Allison smile?

- I never laughed so hard.

- That was the good old days.

If I make it through this,

I'll buy you Coney Island.

I don't need Coney Island. I need you.

- Hi, Nicky.

- Hi, Rose.

- Hey, kid.

- Oh, yo, nick.

- What are you playing, Mozart?

- Scales.

Scales? Never heard of him.

Rose! Rose! Rose!

Hey, whoa! What are you doin'?

What's going on?

What, are you crackin' up?

I tell you, Nicky,

it's rough. It's rough.

What's the matter with you?

What is this?

Rose told me I need hobbies.

I'm making a plane.

It's a messerschmitt.

It's a nice job.

I tell ya, I'm fed up with everything.

I wanna go to sleep and wake up four

months from now when it's all over.

You know what your problem is?

This whole thing ain't real to you.

You don't know what you're coming into.

Did you ever see

Monahan's Department Store?

Once from the outside

when I dropped Rose off.

Why don't we go see it from the inside?

What do you say, come on.

We'll have a few laughs.

Huh? Come on. I need a new shirt anyway.

Rose, there's a messerschmitt in

the kitchen. Clean it up, will ya?

Some joint, huh?

When you take over, let me

fix the bathrooms here.

They don't go to the bathroom here.

See this?

Could somebody help us here?

I don't think so.

I tell ya, my friend here, he's look...

I tell ya, my friend here,

he's lookin' for a shirt.

Yeah. You have something

in a dark black?

He wants something he can

wear four, five days in a row.

You have any men's shirts for men?

Have you tried the Army/Navy store?

Very funny. One more word

out of you, and he gets it.

Come on.

Why don't you two put your heads together,

make an ass out of yourselves?

Where're you goin'?

It says, "Come In And Browse."

- May I help you?

- No, thank you. Just browsing.

What have they got in

this place, antiques?

No, those are the customers.

- May I help you?

- No, thanks. Just browsing.

How long do you intend to browse?

That lady, you didn't ask her

how long she intends to browse.

How come you're asking us

how long we intend to browse?

You don't look like browsers.

- What do browsers look like?

- Maybe I'm half browser.

On his father's side.

Nevertheless, I prefer that you

do not browse any longer.

Yeah, well it's a free country.

Yeah, if these people can browse,

we can browse.

Nicky, let's show the

lady we're browsers, huh?

Hey, look at us. We're browsing.

- Hey, ducks in heat.

- Please! That's 18th century.

Folks, better keep browsing

or she'll kick you out of here.

- Look at us. We're browsing.

- Is this an odd or an end?

Rodney Dangerfield

Rodney Dangerfield (born Jacob Rodney Cohen November 22, 1921 – October 5, 2004) was an American stand-up comedian, actor, voice artist, filmmaker, musician and author known for his self-deprecating one-liners humor, his catchphrase "I don't get no respect!" and his monologues on that theme. He began his career working as a stand-up comic in the Borscht Belt resorts of the Catskill Mountains north of New York City. His act grew in notoriety as he became a mainstay on late-night talk shows throughout the 1960s and 1970s, eventually developing into a headlining act on the Las Vegas casino circuit. A few bit-parts in films such as The Projectionist appeared throughout the 1970s, but his breakout film role came in 1980 as a boorish nouveau riche golfer in the ensemble comedy Caddyshack, which was followed by two more successful films: 1983's Easy Money and 1986's Back to School. Additional film work kept him busy through the rest of his life, mostly in comedies, but with a rare dramatic role in 1994's Natural Born Killers as an abusive father. Health troubles curtailed his output through the early 2000s before his death, in 2004, after a month in a coma due to complications from brain surgery. more…
