Lost in America (6/10) Movie CLIP - The Boldest Experiment in Advertising History (1985) HD

[@krisscanlon4051]

Perfect duo...Garry just hilarious...Albert Brooks good God so funny!

[@collegeman1988]

This scene was so funny. One of the best in any Albert Brooks movie.

[@MkeKen67]

Garry Marshall is damn excellent in this scene. I think he would have been great in a Martin Scorsese movie (Casino being an obvious example.)

[@ryanparkercolour]

Exactly he seems like he would easily do a hit on a nice guy that he likes and makes him laugh. Hahaha

"The Desert Inn has heart....The Desert Inn has heart"....

I choose not to befriend anyone who doesn't think this is one of the funniest scenes of all time!

Ok ok I get I get it lol

[@yespleasehjh]

“We’re finished talking.” I use that line almost daily.

[@jeffreyspivak919]

I love that Albert Brooks is making his pitch in a bathrobe and slippers.

[@jasona9]

In the film the Security Guard says, "You can't come in the Casino dressed like that". Albert Brooks (David) replies, "I saw the Electric Horseman, an animal road through here with lights on it". 😂🤣😂 FYI, the ELECTRIC HORSEMAN was a popular movie in the late 70's with Robert Redford and Jane Fonda. You have to have seen it to get that joke....obviously.

[@ryanparkercolour]

“They won. You lost.” Sums it up 😂

[@davekonig]

Oh boy. To this day one of the funniest scenes of any comedy from the ‘80s. Right up there with Austin Pendleton as the stuttering lawyer in My Cousin Vinnie. Garty Marshall’s progression here is just so brilliant. He finds Brooks audacious enough to hold his interest, he admits “you make me laugh” in a very nice way, he seems to enjoy the Miracle on 34th st debate, but when it becomes obvious Brooks is just going to keep trying way past the point it’s cute anymore, he’s done! Acting schools should show Marshall’s performance to their students, just brilliant!

[@rk4492ABC]

The entire discussion is so natural, it feels like 100% ad lib and non-scripted. Incredible acting from both Albert & Gary.

[@MiltonJenkins]

Classic. Garry Marshall; perfect.

[@JD-jc8gp]

I love the way Marshall says "Santy Claus."

[@ilovethetampabaylightning92]

I love the way he says everything. 🥰

[@patrickcrowley4682]

He almost had him until he mentioned Wayne Newton!

[@HolmanHal]

Very funny, per usual.

[@captainh3831]

""Wrong. In that movie, Santy Claus fixed everything. We don't have Santy Claus. " "Las Vegas a Christmas place to be" "Were finished talkin'".

First time I've looked at this clip in a long time but I never forgot this movie or this scene. Thank you for posting this.

[@NevadaBoss]

You learn more about the reason Vegas exists in this 4min clip than you would in a 4year history course. Brilliant dialogue & Garry Marshall is beyond perfect. PS..the Desert Inn was torn down about a dozen years after this movie..Vega$. The more thing$ change....

[@clairefernanda]

Santy Claus fixed everything. !!

[@mjt5576]

One of the funniest scenes ever.

Albert Brooks - So underrated

[@janellenorris7984]

Everyone in the business and those that know quality entertainment and appreciate a genius when they see it, know how great this guy is.

[@batswbennett]

He's actually considered the funniest man in entertainment by many of of his peers.

[@mikepetitti]

@@batswbennett Sure, his peers, but not enough of the viewing public...he's comedic gold and a damn good actor (dramatic and comedy).

[@batswbennett]

It’s actually a genius pitch but it’s also just so dumb. I love this movie

[@clairefernanda]

Those people on those signs. They won. You lost.

[@garrison6863]

This is classic and Marshall is very understated and effective.

[@ranjitdighe7690]

I love the way he says "You're bold."

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

"Say goodbye to your wife." Funniest line of the movie.

[@stuntmusicgameshow311]

So many levels

[@gholcombe3820]

Maybe. But I would argue “I’ve been hired as assistant manager at the hot dog stand” is close.

[@jasona9]

1:42 "In the campaign you make a clear distinction between THE BOLD, who would be my wife and I, and then all the other schmucks who come here to see Wayne Newton".🤣😂🤣

They still don't give your money back, though. Only Santy Claus can do that.
