CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Navin (Steve Martin) gets the shock of his life on his birthday when he learns that he will always be white and that he wasn't born into his family.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Carl Reiner directs Steve Martin (who co-wrote the script with Carl Gottlieb) in this gag-laden comedy about an idiotic white man, raised by a poor family of black sharecroppers, who doesn't realize he's not black. Navin R. Johnson (Steve Martin) is told the horrible truth when he finds himself instinctively tapping his feet to an easy listening tune on the radio, instead of a low-down blues. His mother (Mabel King) tells him he's white and Navin takes to the road (in a World War II bomber helmet and goggles) to start a new life in St. Louis. A filling station owner, Harry Hartounian (Jackie Mason), give Navin his first break, hiring him to pump gas. One day at the station, Navin has a brainstorm, concocting an invention called "The Opti-grab," a combination handle and nose-brace for eyeglasses. But Navin runs into trouble when a crazed killer (M. Emmet Walsh) picks out his name at random from the telephone book and tries to kill him. Navin escapes to a traveling carnival, where he wrangles a job as the "guess-your-weight" man. At the carnival, he discovers his sexual nature, thanks to stunt rider and S&M enthusiast Patty Bernstein (Catlin Adams). But Navin meets the beautiful Marie (Bernadette Peters) and he quickly falls in love. In the meantime, the "Opti-grab" has taken off and soon Navin is a millionaire.

Y'know, this speaks to me. Even though it's meant as a joke, Navin's character is so appreciative and grateful for everything he has and gets. Everything he receives is a blessing for him. I believe that people should learn to live the way he does, thankful for everything you have.
god bless everyone
People should, no one is owed anything.
@@markdichiara6299 Isn't he a little young to be having that much gray hair?
The wise fool, it’s a common theme :) Like Forrest Gump
Very well said. I have a tear in my eye.
"You mean I'm gonna stay this color?" One of the funniest lines in the movie!
Its might be a play on black people being self conscious of their color. If it is I would find that clever.
Yes, my friend.
That and "He hates these cans! Stay away from the cans!" and the one that gets me every time is "It was never easy for me. I was born a poor black child." This was one of Steve Martin's greatest movies. First movie I seen that introduced me to him was The Three Amigos
@@chamboyette853 I'm pale as a damn ghost and all the kids teased and bullied me in school. I always thought very dark skin was better looking. I'd like to change colors but I have to work with what I got
@@jeffreese4194 White is beautiful.
One of the most beautiful scenes of acceptance and appreciation ever put on film. And disguised as comedy no less
Agreed. It's difficult to make something that's funny but also sweet at the same time. They nailed it.
Just saw this movie tonight and had this exact thought. Little did I know, that scene warmed my anxious little heart up and kept me going til the rest of the movie
This scene brought me to tears back since the first time.
Seriously this movie is art
The fact that the father gave his Zippo to Navine tells you he means the world to him
No yeah I would believe that
Duh 🙄
That used to be a pretty big deal. My dad bought me one when i left for boot camp
When an old soldier passes anything he carried in combat down to his son, or anyone for that matter, it’s a profound thing. Love this movie, many laughs over the years…
@@chrisstewart3768my father gave me his watch he used during his time in Iraq to me when I left for boot camp. I wore it proudly. Sadly I lost it a few years back.
Don't you wish the whole world had as much love in their hearts and sense in their head as Navin's momma? Maybe someday.
You mean I'm gonna stay this color!?kills me everytime! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 my all time favorite comedy!
I'd love you if you were the color of a baboon's a$$ LOLOL
Mama: I'd love you if you're the color of a bamboon's a**!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 white bread, tuna, mayonnaise and Twinkies. Best lines . Am I going to stay this color? 🤣🤣🤣🤣I loved this movie back then when it came out. His dog sh^thead.🤣🤣🤣
This movie STILL brings tears to my eyes...
Never seen the movie, just seen a tiktok and looked it up. Trying to tell if its insensitive to watch.
When the dad gave him the lighter... 😭
@@BuickGirl1986 Watch it if you can take a joke. It's hilariously silly.
If you can't take a joke, maybe comedy isn't for you. Stick to documentaries like "Blazing Saddles". It's about an uprising against colonizing settlers in the old west. It's riveting!
@@BuickGirl1986 "insensitive" what are you going to go cry in your safe space if u hear something insensitive .... Grow up "buickgirl 1986"
that count basie scene from blazing saddles is the only scene i ever needed
Everybody needs a mommy like that. Such a funny, silly movie- but Mabel King gives such a heart warming performance.
"You were left on our doorstep... but we raised you like you were one of us!"
That reduces me to tears.
Ya mean I'm gonna stay this color? *nyeh*
@@not.supermario Isn't he a little young to be having that much gray hair?
@@Angry.General1461 Haha, Steve Martin has always looked the same since the 70s, hasn't he?
Like, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”.
Now THAT'S TRUE LOVE!!!!!! To tell a child that was abandoned from birth that NO MATTER WHAT you are I LOVE YOU........SPEAKS VOLUMES into this scene. Thank you to all of the actors here, it's very important.
Major props to Mabel King, who plays his mom!
Was she the mom on the wagon train in Blazing Saddles?
The Wiz too.
She played the mom on What's Happening as well. Great actress. Major props to her, indeed.
Also played a cheerleader in Bring it on.
@Fahrenheit451 nah, cause she’s just awesome in general and never gave a bad performance
I would have loved to have been raised in that family. I grew up in an abusive situation. I wouldn't have cared what color my family was or how much money we had. To be in a family that loves each other so much would have been a dream come true.
aww sweet. sometimes it's knowing that people love you is all that matters. not money, status, ethnicity etc.
Amen
dude youre literally having life altering fantasies based on a gag in a 40 year old comedy movie
damn breh. *hugs*
It's mostly the people who have gone without one, that appreciate family.
Navin's momma was an angel ❤
Navin was a good son,when he left the nest he always sent some $$$ home to his family.
My dad and his oldest brother did the same thing when they left home to serve, one during the Korean war and one in post-war Japan. It's what you did back then.
That's right! :)
@@joel8583 Isn't he a little young to be having that much gray hair?
He'd send even more since Patty gave him extra work!
Aw, Navin is such a good hearted son. And he was adopted by a loving family. Don’t cry, Navin . 🙂👍
“You mean I’m gonna stay this color?” This is the funniest and sweetest scene
“And remember, I did this without anger” 🔪 😂😂
This scene is like the interpretive dance scene from Sunny. A comedian's last joke is to be sincere. You kind of bounce around between pity and funny and happy and sad and you just don't know what to feel and all of a sudden you understand exactly how Navin feels. It's a lovely scene.
The actor to Steve's right (0:20) wishes Navin a happy birthday by saying, "Happy birthday, Steven!" OOPS!!
Ya it sounds like they tried to cut it as he is saying it.
Gee dad you had this since the war
I never noticed that as many times as I've seen this movie lol
This is a seriously good depiction of a family unit.
I was thinking the same thing. These old movies were really profound, but were took for granted.
Fr it felt so natural for everyone involved
They couldn’t push the race envelope these days like they did during this era.
That's a good mom. Heck, that's a beautiful family...that's what adoption is about. No matter what you look like or where you came from, you're our family, and we love you no matter what. Even if you're the color of a baboon's @ss :).
...And whoever's cutting onions in my room needs to stop that, lol.
I really like how it was acted completely straight
This movie wasn't just a comedy, there was some serious knowledge.
I cant😂😂😂😂😂
Agreed this is what family should be about
That comment really makes sense"especially in today's world"
"I want you to have my Zippo..."
That was a touching gesture. One made of pure love. He even taught him the difference between shaite and Shinola.
I can relate to Navin because I'm also adopted. I'm gonna stay this colour 😂
+Jordan TY R I brought you a twinkie.
Have you found your "special purpose," my friend?
john schaefer and a Tab.
Tuna fish salad on white bread.
I can relate to Navin because my name is Navin.
Tuna fish salad on white bread with mayonnaise, a Tab, and a couple of Twinkies. The whitest meal possible at that time.
"...My story? Okay. It was never easy for me. I was born a poor black child. I remember the days, sittin' on the porch with my family, singin' and dancin' down in Mississippi..."
Growing up we could recite almost every word to this, we watched it so many times. We only had HBO & they played the same 4 movies on rotation. I can remember one summer watching this, Vacation & Grease 2 almost everyday. Every year when we would get the phonebook delivered we would have to say "the new phone book is here"
+tonlo72 Ha u must be around my age! Same thing,lol We had On tv and Select tv though, but they ran the same movies,,hahahah! Cool
mlee2001 I was born in 72. I hate to sound like an old lady but things were more fun when everyone was watching the same thing because they were the only options. Then you could talk about them. Now, we can watch what we want whenever we want
Don't get me wrong I love my DVR but the kids today don't know what it's like to anticipate for something the way we did. I can remember being excited for Saturday morning cartoons.
tonlo72 Yep you're right! Im 68' so it's about the same.
mlee2001 I remember they played Wizard of Oz & Willy Wonka once a year & all the neighborhood kids would be so excited. I also remember standing line for what seemed like hours for the record store to open. Then listening the albums over & over. Now everything is in an instant. Not the same.
+tonlo72 I meant born in lol
One of Kubrick's favorite films. Great movie.
Rush Ron
Kubrick considered making what was to become Eyes Wide Shut in the 80s with Steve Martin but it didn't work out. He loved The Jerk and watched it many times.
Rush Ron
Kubrick also loved Freebie and the Bean (1973).
@@gordonm.7387 Well, I already respected Kubrick. Now I actually *like* him!
"A whole-half bottle of lilac Vegetol... that's from both of us"
If anyone is wondering, it's aftershave.
This movie had so many beautiful little scenes in it. Still a classic.
"You mean I'm gonna to stay this color?" LOL!!!
Navin was very lucky to be taken in by such great people.
My grandmother loved this scene. She would talk about it from time to time.
I know this is just a comedy, but this scene was really too touching and heartwarming to write off as playful satire. I'm pretty sure I almost started to cry.
What a sweet family
In 1998 our local theatre was doing a Steve Martin triple feature on Saturday when Bowfinger came out. The Jerk was first, then Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, then Bowfinger. My friends and I went. I hadn't seen either of the older films. I had a full mouth of Pepsi when he said "you mean I'm going to stay this color". I did a full spit take into the the back of the people's heads in front of me. It was the funniest thing I'd ever heard and at the same time I'm freaking out and apologizing to the couple in front of me. They ended up being really cool and I gave them my popcorn.
This is where James Evans dad was, having this wholesome family while he was left to struggle and then struggle even more as a father himself in Chicago with his wife Florida and their children.
I was born a poor black child . It was never easy for me...Hands down the funniest movies ever made...
arguably the funniest movie ever.
Classic film Steve Martin is a golden classic he deserves a Oscar!
The best family money couldn't buy.
Gifts from the heart ❤
Momma: Navin, you are not our natural-born child.
Navin: I'm not?
ROTFLMAO!!! They do not make comedy gold like this anymore. The Mother and Father are wonderful actors
2:16 Teenage white boys when they realize listening to one song by Snoop Dogg doesn't make them black 😂😂
I love dad´s eyes in 1:06. So funny.he looks stoned or something. ha ha ha ha ha
Not only is this movie hilarious. It is also a beautiful and emotional one.
A movie with Heart
I don't know how these ppl could keep a straight face truly I'd be cracking up 😁😊😀
this stuck with me, the things he got may not be fancy or expensive but they were given by the people he loves and to him thats better than anything. Its just beautiful man
This movie was, no, IS still hysterically funny & pokes at the ridiculousness and stupidity of racism like "Blazing Saddles" does. Anybody who can't see the view expressed that we are ALL THE SAME just needs help.
Just like Blazing Saddles, it engages in punch-up humour, not punch-down humour.
@@bulaluigi - Right, it's positively "negative", in a strange kind of description? Like self-depreciating humor, Rodney Dangerfield's "No Respect" and making fun of himself, etc. - I make people laugh a lot & most of my jokes are making fun of myself!
So hilarious
What in the world did I stumble upon? I need to watch this whole movie now.
This a classic
Steve's best movie
Its called "the jerk"
ShyPoke you'll love it.
I almost peed in my pants when he cries “you mean I’m going to stay this color? 😢”
"you mean I'm going to stay this color"
Never forgot this movie, lol
He was about 34 years old then but could easily pass for 50's.
So now he's 74 and looks almost exactly the same.
Allowing his hair to turn prematurely grey and *not* dying it was one of the best decisions Martin ever made.
Before 1990 everyone looked 25 years older than they actually were
Why do I get teary eyed at this?
Rest in peace Carl Reiner.
how could anyone give this a thumbs down? LOL steve martins BEST! and an all time classic
agreed;FUNNY,FUNNY movie!
@@johnjarou2357 Isn't he a little young to be having that much gray hair?
@@Angry.General1461 well, that is one thing about steve martin. he had gray hair since he was young. don't know why.
What the heck is lilac vegitol I need to look that up 😁
Can I ask why every video ever made on UA-cam asks lol how can we give it a thumbs down? It's the law of averages. Using that line from this is spinal tap 😁
"How far ya goin?" "To the end of this fence" ........ "okay" 😂
for a funny scene in a funny movie, the minute dad hands him that zippo all laughter exits the scene and its instantly a BEAUTIFUL LOVING MOMENT. and then right back to hilarious
Just watched this for the first time last Saturday. I laughed so hard.
This movie legit shows you racism is taught to our children whilw love and caring for each other can make us stronger and more unified...also "you mean I'm gonna stay this color" coming out his mouth always kills me cause he looks ready to cry for real 🤣
was Steve Martin BORN white haired? I mean, he was 33 years in 1979... most people don´t get so gray haired like that until their 40s or 50s...
My brother has done the same thing he got his first white hair at 19 now he's 41 and almost completely white headed. His head was half white when he was in his mid 20's had more gray hair than I do at 43 now. Don't know where he got that gene but he did.
sorry to hear that pal. But I guess better gray haired than bald? You can dye your hair and it will be more natural than a wig (for someone bald) :)
rogerpenna Amen to that. He did dye his hair for a long time but in his early 30's he quit I think he looks quite distinguished now. It suits him. Some dye colors can come out totally weird he had some interesting choices lol.
+rogerpenna Steve Martin went silver really early. I think it was somewhere in his 20s. The advantage of that though, is that people got used to it, and he's looked younger for a really long time.
*****
You mean he's going to stay this color?!
_"Say what? You mean, I'm gonna stay this color? You mean, I'm not gonna grow out of it?"_ LMAO!!
"You mean I'm gonna stay this color?"
Kubrick loved The Jerk. He wanted Steve Martin together in what became Eyes Wide Shut.
i love this movie 'cause it's funny but optimistic. you're still rooting for the kind-hearted characters.
I would have loved to be part of this family.
At least he has a family that cares about him.
This was comedy gold!
One of the best films ever.
So many funny moments in this film.
You mean im gonna stay this colour ? is the most class line ever ,brilliant
I sometimes cry watching this scene. It has tremendous pathos.
Boo....they cut the part where she starts singing him a lullaby and he unsuccessfully tries to keep time.
I never noticed that the candles on the Twinkies both went out on their own. Lol
this is rather touching
I LOVE ❤️ THIS MOVIE..
You mean I'm going to stay this colour ..? 🤣🤣
"You mean I'm going to stay this color?" Lol
You mean I'm gonna stay this color? Lolol.
Mabel King seems sweet like she really loves him
They’re honestly such a sweet, good hearted family to him.
moral of the story
A) Never forget the family members that love you
B) in the incredibly unlikely scenario where an honest rich person helps you get rich overnight. Invest that money into multiple companies. Incase of unfortunate circumstances that cause poverty
When humor was still funny and Robert DeWeirdo didn't have to re-interpret everything for us. Ha, ha, ha. "U mean I'm gonna stay this color?"LMFAO!
You mean I'm gonna stay this color! hahahah xD
Love this movie......classic!! Twinkie and a Tab😂😂😂😂
I use so many of this movies lines in my everyday life and nobody knows what I’m referring to lol
“You mean… I’m gonna stay this color??”
i cried when his mom gave him the twinkies but when his father gave him the zippo
Let us all bow our heads. It was announced this week that the libation in Navin's special birthday meal is being discontinued. No more TAB. I for one am crushed.
LMAO
Navin finds such joy in the simple things in life.. A tuna fish sandwich, a Tab, and a couple of Twinkies.
I love this movie, don’t know why I just like it
Wish all families were like this!!!!!!!!!!!! Love em
If they only made such great movies these days
Priceless comedy.
This movie is a comedy but has some really heartfelt moments
Classic Movie
This is what the world needs now❤
My tears were streaming for the tender moment when he asked....if Grandma was still farting. 😢
I literally have seen this movie so many times I have lost track 😁
Singing the blues always made Navin depressed. I love it.
Damn, Eddy Murphy did just a crazy job playing them all!
Family is about those you love
Zippo is guaranteed for life
You mean I'm gonna stay this color? Classic!
