My favorite part of the movie was where he just came out of hibernation, and along with Diane, found that cave with a VW bug that had been sitting there for two centuries, but still started right up.
@@AuGold808 keen is "Keane" as in Margaret Keane, the woman who painted the girls with the very big eyes "Cougat" is actually "Cugat" as in Xavier Cugat, the band leader The joke is that the future is so simplified and automated that taste has radically changed (hinted at earlier when Miles finds out that bacon is healthy for you despite running a health food store), where Keane's big-eyed waifs and Cugat's schmaltzy big band music are considered high art now.

The art of satire within humor and how you show need not be so obscure that viewer doesn’t understand like ‘ Galaxy something something ‘ but quality of Woody Allen was that it was understood by all in its simplicity
At times in this movie, Woody Allen reminds me of Buster Keaton in how he deals with all the unexpected situations (largely of his own making) that spring up.
I liked the references to seventies kitsch culture: the Margaret Keene painting in this clip and a later reference to Rod McKuen as if they had become high culture.
You what strikes me there is little to no technological progress to be seen. Just weird-ass iterations of all the same crap that was already present 200 years earlier. They have authoriarianism and no benefits. This sure ain't Star-Trek!
I personally DON'T CARE what some people have claimed Woody has ALLEGEDLY done (sexually) in the past, it is probably a complete load of BULLSHIT, they are probably jealous of his success and have done NOTHING with their own lives (this refers to the people who have the stupidity to believe these claims.) I give him the benefit of the doubt, as I suppose ANYONE would want if it happened to themselves... IT IS BTW AN AMAZINGLY FUNNY FILM AND HIS FACE WHEN HE HAS THE ORB IN HIS HANDS IS SO HILARIOUS
Well, yeah, both this and ACO look like what people in the early 'seventies expected the future to look like. Actually, it just looks like the 'seventies cranked up to eleven.
Woody Allen's Sleeper is the greatest comedy film of all time.
Not really.
I mean everyone's entitled to their own opinion.
And the mask
It's coogot!
@TheCoolProfessor I think it's really keen.
The battle with the pudding was magnificent. His skills are extra-ordinary!
It was gonna ask him to join…
Chaplin was better. He also looked better, and at least he didn’t sleep with his underage daughter
@@furerorban1488 What a tired and boring comment.
Still screamingly funny after all these decades 😂😂😂😂

The scene with the Beetle is well after this scene - before Luna joins the rebels and Miles gets captured.
@@Malkmusianful Yeah, I didn't realize it was so long since I'd seen the movie.

And the diet recommendations....
Ted Bundy loved that scene too. Dependable bugs, always good for a clean getaway.
This film is just so ahead of its time. Damn I want the orb! Another endlessly funny movie from woody
You don't know what "ahead of its time" means.
@@Zodroo_Tint They use it for everything.
To anyone reading this, understand that this is one of the funniest movies ever made.
I think it's instant pudding 💩
Dear lord in heaven > every second of this clip is comedy GOLD.. The "orb" sequence is amongst the funniest cinematic moments of ALL TIME..
Hillarious!!!....one of Woody's best films!
70’s free love was the best.
Not seen this film for years still cracks me up hilarious
Written in 1971, filmed April 30-June 1973 in CO & CA.
Woody’s performance here owes much, and is a homage, to Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel.
With his glasses and that white-face makeup, Woody Allen reminds me of Silent movie comedic great, Harold Lloyd.
I finally found this movie. Thank you for sharing.
"No, no, it's greater than keen; it's 'cougat'!" Love it!
is that a word? genuinely curious
@@AuGold808 keen is "Keane" as in Margaret Keane, the woman who painted the girls with the very big eyes
"Cougat" is actually "Cugat" as in Xavier Cugat, the band leader

I always thought it was meant to be future slang. The 'cool' and 'groovy' of the 2160s.
@@Voyager...2 that too. That's kind of the thing about early, funny Woody Allen: he tended to have his jokes be multilayered as default.
@@Voyager...2 There's a Keane painting behind the black lady that Milo gloms.
The art of satire within humor and how you show need not be so obscure that viewer doesn’t understand like ‘ Galaxy something something ‘ but quality of Woody Allen was that it was understood by all in its simplicity
The fact that the two ladies are so oblivious & self involved is a perfect metaphor for 2024.
Woody doing his best Charlie Chaplin
Charlie was better. He also looked better, and at least he didn’t sleep with his underage daughter
Sleeper is such a hilarious movie! Woody is so talented!!!
Woody and Diane were so funny together.
Why does society low key feel like this now?
I'm sure that for those of us still alive after the great reset we will all have orbs.
Wish I could find this whole movie. I haven't seen this in quite a few years, I totally forgot about this scene! Hilarious!
One of the funniest movies ever. Woody was hilarious
At times in this movie, Woody Allen reminds me of Buster Keaton in how he deals with all the unexpected situations (largely of his own making) that spring up.
Woody is a master of physical comedy, besides writing and directing this jewel...
I seem to watch woody Allen in the sleeper time and time again and it's just as funny
Just noticed George Furth in the party scene--the actor with the reversed ****tika on his shirt. He was in The Music Man and Blazing Saddles.
this is so fucking great!!!!!!! - the insight and it's inspired delivery are almost too much to handle
I love the scene where he will not let go of the orb and goes to hit the women who try’s taking it of him
Saw this as a kid, never understood that orb scene fully till now
Saw this as a teen…..got it completely🤤
I laugh just the same today when I first watched it in 1983. 😅
Beyond hilarious movie !!!
A "Big Eyes" painting !
This will always be one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Goddamn, I still laugh...
rrrock I remember seen this in the early 80,s!!!! omg... symbolic of an era gratefully forgotten...
Why would God damn it??
Because I told him to, goddamnit.
amen
These days, I really need that orb.....
clearly you are from before the year 2025, the year of our great leader........
@@AsifKhan-hf9zy LOL.
What an imagination to make a movie.
I liked the references to seventies kitsch culture: the Margaret Keene painting in this clip and a later reference to Rod McKuen as if they had become high culture.
Debris disposed - funny as hell!
This is hysterical!
4:51 When the girl tries to take the orb and he makes like he's going to hit her, Hilarious!
One of the men is wearing gray sweatshirt that says "Our Leader" and it's a picture of presumably the dicctator. lol
Brilliance.
4:29…lol
Look at that man's face on the right @ 5:38 when 'Milo' is cannoodling with the lady (must be the orb's effect)
There has never been a funniest man
Back in the 80's I was a young teen and i already was a big fan of woody then, but I did not realize Diane Keaton was so hot!!
alexander dela cruz And she made this movie in between the two Godfather films! This was nowhere near a serious role
Spinning tape drives in the year 2173! :-)
Rich folks over spending buying retro electronics 😊
Never seen this movie nor any of the others that he did with Diane Keaton but I'm hoping to some day 😊

0:51 Year 2173 and they still have computers from the 1970s?
It worked back then, because in those days the only time 99% of people ever saw computers was in futuristic movies anyway.
superb
the closed captioning in English appears to have been translated into three other languages before being sent back to English.
The orb is not just for contemplating.
Mi-milo
This movie is so funny I love his humour
Whataaahell a Kitchen has a steering wheel?

Funny stuff this. Also getting a very definite Mark Zuckerberg similarity here
Who?
LOL. The glasses.
When Woody Allen was funny. 😂
But you and I we've been through that.....
50 years ago and Woody had already diagnosed California as a dystopian nightmare that would only get worse.
What in the fuck were they doing with that orb!?
Brilliant
"Reagan! Come out here at once!"
Strangely Kubrick like cinematography .
Xavier " it's Cougat " / Charo.
Robots will OD an go insane for more lol
When Woody Allen was funny.
Pudding? The Orgasmatron is the story.
I think this is 2023.
Year 2173. Or 200 years after going to the hospital in 1973 lol
Reminds me of A Clockwork Orange
Well, yeah, both this and ACO look like what people in the early 'seventies expected the future to look like. Actually, it just looks like the 'seventies cranked up to eleven.
@@racooksterCranked up seventies was also really evident in Soylant Green and Gerry Anderson's UFO series.
@ - And Logan's Run. It was cranked up to 20 in that one.
As great as some of Chaplin's work.
HA! Thanks!
This is cougat….
Mmmm Diane Keaton
I just don't get it...
@ No wait ! It's duller than normal, ...it's Montovani!

Neo Beta anyone?
LMFAO !
So funny

Orgasm 0' Tron!!
Fucking classic my mom showed me that shit when I was small. Oh, and sweet shirt the fourth Reich and shit. You know, for the racists.
Woody correctly foresaw the future!
Instant pudding 💩
LMAO !
He looks like a chomo
Sorry, Woody Allen WAS NOT FUNNY
Not to you, but definitely to many many people. Humour is a subjective thing so if you don't find it funny, that's fine.
Go play video games, Keefie
