Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- Al, Jimmy, and Harry Ritz were stars of vaudeville, Broadway, and feature films for 20th Century Fox and Universal. The Ritz Brothers (and especially their unofficial leader Harry) were among the most influential comedians of the early 20th century, inspiring the likes of Mel Brooks, Jerry Lewis, Danny Kaye, Milton Berle, Sid Caesar, Carl Reiner, Norman Lear, Soupy Sales, and many others.

Thanx muchly for sharing this little treasure!
I love the Ritz Brothers. Have since I first saw them loooooong long ago.
Shame we can't get more clips, and full movie and tv footage of their wonderful brand of madness, and their great comedic timing, and fabulous dance moves.
RIP, darling Harry, Al, and Jimmy, and thanx so so very very very much, gentle men, for the magic, music, and memories.
(edit bc my stupidphone cannot spell properly 🙄 )
Saw one of their movies when I was kid and thought they were funnier than the Marx brothers (who I love, too). Seeing this, they are as funny as I remember and now understand why Mel Brooks is my favorite director 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
This is fantastic. So many people believe that the Ritz Brothers were nobodies, only because their _movie_ career failed. We still need a big, professionally produced documentary about the Ritz Brothers, perhaps their star should rise again after that.
I feel the exact same way
I've literally just heard of these guys and idk how I missed them. I like watching Three Stooges, Laurel and Hardey, Marx Brothers and more but I've never heard of the Ritz Brothers but I like them already
Me too, my friend. Sadly, The Ritz Brothers were underrated because no one who they were but I did seen this movie called "The Gorilla" and they were outstanding.
Brilliant !
They were great. All the shtick and them some. The big surprise for me was to see these television gems. I remember the films but I didn't know they were still killing it years later.
This is gold. A great followup to your other Ritz Brothers video.
Thank you!
I rememeber when the Ritz Bros. were namechecked on "Leave it to Beaver,' but I wasn't clear on the context of the time. The joke was that Beaver didn't realize the Ritz Bros. were comedians and saw their version of the Three Musketeers, and tried to pass it off for a book report. But I don't know if the joke was --he was too young to know them, or were their star so faded and forgotten, you don't blame Beaver for not knowing them, as the audience had forgotten too.
I never met Al or Jimmy, but I did meet Harry. He was a friend of my wife's aunt and uncle. A very funny man. The only comedian that I know of who could count with his eyes!
That’s awesome. He was an absolute one of a kind. So many people tried to imitate him, but none could equal him
Great, great job bro. Been hearing about the Ritz Brothers for years and this retrospective is a great way to get familiar with their irreverent brand of comedy
The essential Ritz Brothers in 14 minutes. Wonderful.
You can see how the Ritz's inspired so many overcooked New York comics like Jerry Lewis, Berle, Caesar, and Silvers. Lots of yelling, lots of pulling faces.
I Love the Ritz Brothers they are So Funny.
Oh man, that was great- I so appreciate this sample of their work, having never heard of them before. Thank you!
God bless you! Mister Brooks!
Been watching Hotel Anchovy on a loop recently. Short movie but incredibly entertaining. The jokes, the body language, the coordination. Absolutely brilliant.
Brilliant.
How can you not know who the Ritz Brothers are
I may have posted earlier. I also think Howard Morris was influenced by Harry Ritz; remember his character Ernest T. Bass on The Andy Griffith Show? One of my great Hollywood thrills was to have met Harry Ritz once and he jabbered with me at a Deli on West Olympic Blvd. in L.A. in 1982. RIP X 3
Thanks for posting this. I'd never known about them but I certainly know their influence. It's interesting to the see these predecessors that were barely caught on film. It makes me wonder about those that influenced them and were never captured.
Why can't we go back in time with the same reefer and civil rights laws as today :/
All that material in the NBC appearance is really solid TV comedy. It looks ahead of its time, even 10:17
Everyone knows the Marx Brothers and the Three Stooges but nobody knows the Ritz Brothers is there a reason?
What are some of the best Ritz Brothers performances I should watch?
"The Three Musketeers" is usually regarded as their best movie, but I also like "Straight, Place and Show" and "Behind the Eight Ball"
I knew about the Ritz Bros. at a fairly early age. But I'm wrird that way. First movie I ever saw with them was The Three Musketeers. I don't think I've seen it since then. Will have to watch it again sometime.
Charles Montgomery Burns send me here. He mentioned about seeing more orderly in a Ritz Brother Film in Madhouse of Madness.
Are these the guys, Kelly?
I love them ❤
3:12 Dick Cavett's necktie look 10 inches wide, lol.
more!!!
Les ritz brotheurs étaient farfelus leur meilleur film
the gorille avec bela lugosi.
Sinon ils ne m ont jamai fait rires comment les Marck brotheurs et 3 stooges ou abbot et costello.
The 3 Stooges were much much funnier.
Sorry. I never got it. Never made me laugh
I had to watch it in two parts. They wear me out.
must be an acquired taste
Mel Brooks i will always adore. I finally watched my first film featuring the Ritz Brothers. I could only watch about 20 minutes. Maybe its the fact they all look alike but not funny quite forgettable. The Stooges and the Marx Bros. Learned early on a trio needs 3 distinct characters not 3 Larry Fines.
they throw up the devil hons just a bunch of freemasons
Well I’ll get straight to the point: do you think you are a good person? You might have thought about it before, or you might have not. But your answer is probably yes. Now the rest of this might get personal, but remember, I can’t see-or hear you reading this, so don’t worry. Now let’s have a look at the Ten Commandments. You don’t have to believe in the Bible to take this quiz:
Have you ever stolen something? Yes no
Have you ever looked with lust? Yes no
Have you ever used the Lord/Jesus/Christ/God’s Name as a swear word? Yes no
Have you ever told a lie? Yes no
You probably answered Yes to, at least, two of those. There are six more. A bit of math would tell you that (10 divided by 2 =5) , out of the Ten Commandments, on average you probably answered Yes to five of them. Do you still think you are a good person? Now I’m doing this because I care about you. You could die at any moment. Your heart may stop right now. And I’d like to see all of you in Heaven. I don’t want you to go to…to...to...to…what was it again? Was it perhaps hell? We have all sinned. Nobody is perfect or worthy in God’s sight. In fact, the only way our sins could be forgiven, was if we offered sacrifices practically every day. We all sin every day. We look with lust, we lie, we blaspheme, we swear and we steal without giving it a second thought. Imagine all those sin and guilt offerings we would have to offer… but we don’t have to. Because God sent His one and only Son Jesus, to die for us on the cross as THE sin offering so that whoever BELIEVES in Him will be forgiven and have eternal life. He took all the sins that will ever be on Himself. He paid the price; i.e. He’s the Person who paid the fine for the stack of offences on the Judges(God’s) desk, so He could let you go. That is how great His Love and Mercy for you is. He has no reason to spare you, apart from His abounding Love and Mercy. You just have to accept His forgiveness, repent, get baptised and turn to Him. You have been warned. Do not reject Him.

Ps: your life-span on this earth is nothing compared to eternity. Just remember that. Is your soul safe…?
PPS: Let the Lord sanctify you. And read a Bible at least once a day, even if it’s just one chapter.
Shut up Jesus freak I’m tryna watch a video about some forgotten comedians from the 30s that I only found out about from reading a book about the marx brothers
Jesus Christ I left my drugs at that bar I robbed last night.
@@akselpena well, sorry. But honestly, you chose to come down here. I am not disturbing your video watching at all.
So, you don't think Christianity is true?
@@davidmitchell6873 I know you're joking, but could I ask why you said this?
@@Cwazy489 nah bruh Christianity ain’t true I know this cause I’m circumcised and atheist 🙌🔥😎
