Mister Roberts (1955) - Making Scotch Scene (2/10) | Movieclips

[@ryandtibbetts2962]

This is probably my favorite scene from this movie. Jack Lemmon earned his Oscar several times over with his performance as Ensign Pulver.

[@ChrisBakerauthor]

All four of them actually earned one.

[@sethdendy6644]

Man, I need to watch some classic movies again. I used to watch these with my Grandpa when I was a kid. :)

I love how he looks at his watch , like he is really timing it.

8 years of aging in about 5 seconds... they could make a fortune with this method!

[@MrLeagleEagle]

That look on Fonda's face when he takes a drink....from apprehension, to disgust, to shock....acting his @$$ off!! Love it.

i really need to watch this movie again. it's probably been about 20 years. this scene was memorable for me and it just popped into my head. great movie. i love the classics.

TCM has it on its demand list.

This past week, and they literally did this at my son’s dine-out, they used motor oil and sand. How appropriate.

[@overallgreatidea6433]

Thanks Uncle Al, CRM USCG WWII (LST 885), CW4 USANG, for letting me lay on my tummy on your living room rug under the cigarette smoke strata in the 1970s and watch this gem of a movie. I still think one of the best lines in all of moviedom is when Roberts tells the stretcher-bearers "we won't be needing that...Sorry" Here the aging of the scotch is my second favorite

[@samiam619]

Watch it again. Or for the 100th time like I have. Doc dismisses the stretcher bearers.

[@homersamson2635]

Such a clever, funny scene with three brilliant actors.

[@jayham1970]

One of the best and funniest movies that I ever watched, and I always cry at the end. I always hated when they killed the hero at the end, but I guess someone always has to die in a war movie.

[@vksasdgaming9472]

It also has subversions. Roberts is hero of story and competent officer, but his ultimate motive is to get out of that Bucket.

[@hoouwit1]

Him singing "she won't know the difference" always cracked me up.

[@charlesvitale]

Every time I have a scotch, I think of this scene and smile.

[@bobogigio9072]

[@Redlinesixtynine]

Jack Lemmon is so young here. I'm used on seeing him in Grumpy Old Men.

[@hl6087]

Jack Lemmon was so hilarious 🤣

[@swampwatr]

Watch -> The Apartment it’s great

[@tommyt1971]

And about 4 yrs later he plays an older woman in Some Like it Hot, the funniest work he ever did.

[@alexv6701]

How did William Powell not even get nominated for an Oscar for this role?

[@RJC96cj]

True...last movie he ever did.

[@hl6087]

William Powell made a lot of films with Mryna Loy

[@alexv6701]

@@hl6087 -Thin Man.

[@steveparadis2978]

By then that level of excellence was expected from Powell.

[@odysseusrex5908]

This is probably the funniest scene in the movie, even more than the liberty scene, but I have noticed something. Ensign Pulver occupies the top bunk, but he is spreading his suggestive pillows on the lower one. Evidently, he planned on wooing his nurse in Mister Roberts' bunk.

[@actioncom2748]

Ah, The one MythBusters episode we didn't get. The Mr Roberts Red Label recipe

[@pickeljarsforhillary102]

The Johnny Walker Red secret formula!

[@oldgoat142]

It actually works. Trust me. I'm an old sailor. Had a couple of genius wiseguys on ship who knew how to get their hands on torpedo juice. They added the ingredients and voila! Johnny Walker scotch.

[@deanp.tolentino8528]

Never underestimate a Navy Snipe with figuring out ways to make alcohol❤❤❤❤❤

[@librarian66]

One of my favorite movies and the book is great too!

[@piehound]

Great scene. One of my all time faves. But Ensign Pulver . . . NEVER underestimate a woman no matter how blond.

[@acmarston]

Especially if she's Jason Voorhees's mother.

[@castlebravo1467]

I wish they would show this on Movies! channel. I read a book written in 1941 after Pearl Harbor by a Chicago reporter. Parts of it have the same sound of the movie, a long, boring trip on a slow supply ship in a convoy.

[@brianlee5455]

Man this movie makes me want to join the Navy again in a millisecond!

The subject of distilling spirits (for home use only, of course!) came up in discussion, and I just had to go find this clip! :D

As a scotch drinker myself the thing I always love about this scene is that you could probably sell a non-scotch drinker who hasn't acquired the taste (the ones who always say UGH how can you drink that stuff?) that it is made out of clear grain alcohol mixed with iodine and hair tonic and they would believe you.

[@oldgoat142]

Trust me. I'm an old sailor. We did.

[@mikecelentano8573]

Great scene from a great film. One question...what’s the mysterious “alcohol” they had last night? They just refer to it as “alcohol”... was it gin? Vodka? Tequila?

[@ChristopherHailey]

Probably grain alcohol, you could "obtain" some in the Navy back then. Google "torpedo juice"

[@oldgoat142]

@@ChristopherHailey It was grain alcohol. Doc mentions it when he tells Doug about the crew having a Sign The Captain's Name contest. The medical dept. contributed two gallons.

Ethyl alcohol.

Isn't there also a part of the movie where Jack Lemmon made up a batch of jungle juice?

[@oldgoat142]

No, it was the crew. They brought it to the cabin in the new handy-dandy portable container, aka a fire extinguisher canister to celebrate Mr. Roberts transfer to the USS Livingston.
