[@violetjm]

The Seinfeld episode with the wedding in India, where events are presented starting at the end and leading backward in time to the beginning, is based on the movie "Betrayal" with Jeremy Irons and Ben Kingsley, which begins at the end of the story and ends with the beginning. The screenplay was written by Harold Pinter. A character in the Seinfeld episode, I think the groom, is named Pinter. This wouldn't be a side-by-side scene comparison, so doesn't belong in this collection, but it's another clever movie reference in Seinfeld.

Well, to be bluntly frank and honest, clever uses of the footage that went into crafting this piece of nearly perfect montage of movie segments, which merged beautifully with the Seinfeld clips, to be sure, that said, where I feel where the proverbial ball was dropped was in the lack of Schindler's List. I mean, seriously?! The English Patient is one thing, but how can you even remotely forget to include such a timeless art and memorable piece of cinematic wonder as Schindler's List?! It just doesn't work without it. That's just not right... especially where the whole Jewish angle is concerned. Don't mean to sound rude, & as much as I surely love the "show about nothing", but for me, at best, I'd say this was more like Fool's Gold... which would be perfect for Seinfeld's zany antics! Decent attempt, though.

I had no idea that the shower head for elephants was a reference; how perfectly subtle and well done!

I love how Newman is doing both JFK and Basic Instinct re-enactments.

I've seen every Seinfeld episode multiple times and I didn't catch a lot of these. Thanks!

This was masterful. I basically have memorized every episode of Seinfeld, and now my watching has new meaning :) Thank you for this!

[@SpaceTravel1776]

I think there’s a movie reference to Cyrano when Newman is hiding behind a bookcase and feeding Kramer lines to flirt with Pam.

[@yaronbaruch]

yeah, but it's more of a play than a movie, so it didn't make the cut for me

It was more of a homage to Wolf with Jack Nicholson which had come out a couple years earlier

@@Shapes_Quality_Control Lol I think you misunderstood, I didn't mean it was as good as The Lion King, just that The Lion King was really good. Despite that, I don't regret seeing Wolf. Two very different movies intended for very different audiences but I did end up watching Lion King way more than Wolf.

This is absolutely incredible. I definitely knew some of these references but I had no idea there were so many!

Seinfeld is seriously one of the best shows in history! This just adds another level to it that I didn't even really know about. There is not one single episode that doesn't make me laugh.

[@r.p.mcmurphy6623]

Well, it is a sitcom...so there's that. 🤣

[@willieholmes1483]

They forgot one: “Wolf”: in “The Muffin Tops”, Jerry starts shaving his chest. His girlfriend likes him with a smooth chest and Jerry tricks her into thinking he’s naturally hairless. However, they’re trapped on Kramer’s tour bus and Jerry’s chest starts to itch. He runs away and jumps around like Jack Nicholson in “Wolf” when Nicholson starts to transform into a werewolf. Only Jerry howls as he scratches his chest and gets relief.

[@LanceZaan1]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@BobSince1981]

Also Cape Fear "Jerry! Hello!"

[@MisterRawgers]

So many great references and Easter eggs in Seinfeld. Larry David is a comedy genius. Thanks for this!

[@bob-wo3ir]

Larry David and Seinfeld

[@RonFilm]

Great video! There are many more references in the show. For example: In "The Fatigues", the singles mixer fiasco is a reference for Platoon. When Kramer goes to Hollywood there is another reference to Sunset Blvd. when his old neighbor yells as he's going up the stairs.

[@radrobd123]

the old lady in Kramer's Hollywood episodes was a reference to Baby Jane from Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?

[@Shifter22]

Fantastic edit! Love all of Seinfeld’s brilliant film references! Considering The Graduate is one of Jerry’s favorite films, I’m surprised that in 9 seasons, they never once did a scene with Jerry behind a pane of glass yelling for Elaine.
