      I know someone like Harry Carey. Not exciting to talk to IRL. It's only funny cause it's a spot on impression and the delivery. But like most of these characters, I do NOT like to live it. I'm related the the woman who thinks she knows something about current events, but just shows how stupid she sounds by being that annoying girl at a party that u try to chew ur leg off to run away.

    By Will not answering Jeff's final question or statement, that's where the brilliance really comes out. Because no matter what answer he gave to Jeff, the comedic payoff would not have worked as well. Plus, by the ambiguous silence he leaves Jeff Goldblum in the end, fits with the rest of Harry Carey's craziness and eccentric mannerisms/personality. This sketch really showcases Will Ferrell's strongest talent in the character driven performances he does, that's where his gift really shines. I love how he outwits Jeff and causes him to break down laughing and snap out of character

  • @chasingperfect28
    @chasingperfect28 6 років тому +176

    As a person who studied Theater, it's so interesting watching Goldblum fight his personality habits- like touching his face, gesturing with his hands, and even how he folds his arms over his chest. He's doing everything to keep character while trying to remain active in the scene. That's a hard thing to do no matter who you are. He kinda loosens up a little by the end, and starts giving Ferrell more to interact with. But good fun all around. This is one of my favorite SNL moments, and I always crack up with laughter.
    Props and kudos to him for being the professional. I would have broken many times throughout this sketch, and Goldblum does his job here. :)

    Everything about this skit is so perfect! First, Will sounds nothing like Harry but yet his impression is absolutely hilarious. 2nd, his ability to obviously go off script to get Jeff to crack makes it that much funnier. and lastly, the timing that Will uses for the "Hey!" and the use of pauses are perfect. I simply cannot get enough of this skit. I can't count the hours spent watching this one skit over my lifetime.
