Caddyshack: Monthly Movie Marathon

[diebitter]

Gunga Galoonga


Yep, I watched it again, laughed a lot, and thoroughly enjoyed Caddyshack. I really have to say it isn't the best comedy ever - the other 3 already discussed beat it easily, and do several other films (Life of Brian, Spinal Tap, Love and Death to name a few)


Still, it was fun to live. I'd forgotten all that stuff Murray does that's pretty obscene (pumping that groundskeep thing while leering at the middle-aged lady golfers, walking with a big hose so that the front is handing between his legs), and Murray is just great in it (and it's not a typical Murray character). And the bit where Murray bites the 'poop' in the swimming pool is priceless.


And I never did get why the gopher sounds like a dolphin.


One thing about it I'd never really noticed is how it really is a patchwork of performances and in some respects extended sketches (example: Chase playing thorugh Murray's living quarters; the priest playing his best round of golf ever through lashing rain and storm), hung on a thin plot. It probably shouldn't work (with Rodney Dangerfield essentially doing his stage act every scene, Chase acting aloof and weird, Murray acting slobby and out of it), but it does work, and very well.

What can I say? Wanna make $14 the hard way?

I am the only one who loved this line, I have never had anyone else remember it.

Caddyshack is one of the funniest movies of all time. Once I threw a Baby Ruth in a pool on vaction just to see if I got the same reaction. I did oh well.


"Vinny, Knuckles, help the judge find his wallet."

Wasn't it;

"All right, Smails, that's grand.
Now fork it over!
I'll give you nothing!
Absolutely nothing, you understand!
I figured as much! Hey, Moose!
Rocco! Help the judge find his checkbook.
Well, l...l will. Hey, everybody!
We're all going to get laid!...."

So I jump ship in Hong Kong
and make my way over to Tibet...



...and I get on as a looper at a course
in the Himalayas.



A looper?



A looper. You know, a caddy, a looper...



...a jock.



So I tell them I'm a pro jock
and who do you think they give me?



The Dalai Lama, himself.



The th son of the Lama.



With flowing robes, grace, bald, striking.



I'm on the first tee with him.
I give him the driver.



He hauls off and whacks one.
Big hitter, the Lama. Long!



Into a foot crevice
right at the base of this glacier!



Do you know what the Lama says?



"Gunga galunga. Gunga gunga da gunga."



So we finish and he's going to stiff me.



And I say, "Hey, Lama!



"How about a little something,
you know, for the effort?"



And he says, "There won't be any money...



"...but when you die, on your deathbed...



"...you will receive total consciousness."



So I've got that going for me...
which is nice.
