Two very funny foreign films of some years ago. One is called THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY, and it begins with a pilot dropping a coke bottle from a plane and it lands in the midst of an isolated African tribe who then use this “gift from the Gods” (bottle) as a rolling pin, the top as a stamp to decorate fabric, etc. Great fights ensue over who gets the bottle, so the chief decides to go to civilization and throw the bottle off the end of the world and give it back, and his encounters along the way. The other comedy, starring Maggie Smith, had two different titles, but the one I recall was THE CATERED AFFAIR. Maggie Smith is a blue collar social climber during WWII who wants an invite to attend the Mayor’s congratulatory dinner dance to commemorate the engagement of Princess Elizabeth, with no chance of being invited, so to wangle an invitation she steals a piglet then raises it at home on the sly (food being rationed in those days, and severe penalties for hoarding) to donate it for the dinner in exchange for invitations.
“THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY”
Funniest movie ever!
“Take him the the helicopter!”
“Aiii yaiii, yaiii, yaiii, yaiii,!”
“I don’t want to talk about it!”
My son & nephew watched that time after time one summer and memorized most of the dialog.
“How did the Land Rover get in the tree?”
“I don’t want to talk about it!”
“Did you know that she has flowers on her panties?”
“So THAT”S how the Land Rover got in the tree!”
[not exactly what you are thinking]
“That’s a wait-a-minute bush! You must not mess with a wait-a-minute bush!”
