The Jerk----one of the greatest movie comedies EVER!
---don't remember the thing about the oil cans, though,
my favorite line in the movie is when the tough motorcycle daredevil "Patty Bernstein" tells Navin she will try to guess his weight, so she clutches his butt with both hands, and feels around, and at length, he laughs and says "WOW! You're really trying to be accurate!"

LOL
It's the beginning of the movie where Martin finds a job at a service station, pumping gas. There was a crazy sharp shooter firing at Steve Martin after picking him randomly in a phonebook. He kept missing Steve and hittting the oil cans. At first, Martin thinks the cans are defective because they spring leaks but soon realizes the sharp shooter is firing at him which prompts Steve's quick-witted response, "That man is angry at the oil cans. Stay away from the oil cans."
