😂😂 Carl LaFong 😂😂 capital L small a capital F small o small n small g., Carl LaFong!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. BRILLIANT!!! AND EXTREMELY FUNNY, I HAVE NEVER IN MY ENTIRE LIFE, LAUGHED SO MUCH, TO THE POINT OF NO RETURN, THIS BRILLIANT, GENIOUS MAN, EVERY SINGLE TIME I WATCH THIS CLIP, I CAN'T CONTROL MY LAUGHTER. SIMPLY, MAGNIFICENT!!!!😂😂😂🌹
I remember having insomnia one night many years ago so I got up to watch TV and "It's A Gift" was on at like 3 in the morning... I laughed like hell!! It almost made it worth having the insomnia...This Comic Gem of a movie is 75 yrs old... A Masterpiece!
Grew up in middle class America in the 60,s and back in the day this guy was the most original of them all - love his irreverence and timing impeccable 😊
It's a Gift is my fathers favorite movie and this is his favorite scene. Every Christmas I make sure to sign one of the tags on his presents "From Carl LaFong." He always gets a kick out of it!
W.C. Fields in my opinion was one of, if not thee geatest comedians ever. The man was a comidic genius. I could watch his movies every day. I wish there was someone close to his skills as a comidian, this gentleman wrote almost all of his movies.
💥💥 THIS CLIP, NEVER GETS OLD.EVERY TIME I SEE IT, I CAN'T CONTROL MY LAUGHTER. THAT IS THE FUNNIEST THING, THAT I HAVE SEEN, IS TOO HYSTERICAL. EVEN WHEN I AM NOT SEEING IT, I SEE IT ON MY MIND, AND LAUGH!! FOR MY MONEY, I HAVE NEVER, SEEN A COMEDIAN AS FUNNY AND AWESOME, AS W.C. FIELDS!! 💥💥 LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🌹
Not to mention the gift of timing, too. This guy was brilliant when it came to focusing on a bit where he squeezed every conceivable thing he could find that had comedic potential on it. That's why a scene like this is so genius, its minutes long and every bit is hilarious, much less relatable in a way, too.
😂😂 NO! I DON'T KNOW, Carl LaFong 😂😂 Capital L Small a, Capital F Small o, Small n, Small g. 😂😂 Carl LaFong 😂😂 * AND IF I KNEW Carl LaFong, I WOULDN'T ADMIT IT!! THE MIND OF A TRUE GENIUS. A BRILLIANT, W.C. FIELDS!!! 💙💙 RIP W.C. FIELDS 💙💙
This strikes a chord...lol. We've ALL been there just tryin to get a little shut eye and can't because the world won't let it happen. (🤷He thinks milk bottles are sleigh bells)Lol!! Never gets old!!✌️💖
That Carl LaFong scene is the funniest thing on film, to me! I LMAO every time I watch it! Just that spelling part. I'll be watching it on my phone with my headphones laughing like a mental patient, and my wife goes " what are you watching Carl LaFong again? " hahahaha!
Fields had a penchant for funny names, and once in real life he went into a bank to open a new account and the manager told him that a "Mrs Clapsaddle" would take care of him, and Fields eyes got as big as dinner plates. Every time he want back to that bank, he would openly yell for Mrs. Clapsaddle because he loved her name so much.
@john Stucko THAT IS THE SAME THING, THAT I WAS GOING TO SAY!! THAT IS THE FUNNIEST THING THAT I EVER HEARD. EVEN IF I WAS NOT LOOKING IT. I SAW IT ON MY MIND, AND I LAUGH. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SAY, THAT I'M CRAZY, YES CRAZY FOR W.C. FIELDS. NEVER GET TIRED OF SEING IT. SORRY IF MY TYPING IS NOT NOT PERFECT BUT MY EYES GET BLURRY, AND U COULD HARDLY SEE. I MUST GET AN EYE EXAMI 🐾
You will never get this comedy back, unfortunately. Absolutely so so funny and clever. Wish someone would re invent this kind of thing. One of the greats 👍
Great post - thank you! Salesman (speaking of Carl LaFong): "Well he's a railroad man and he leaves home very early in the morning." Mr. Bissonette: "Well he's a chump." LOL!!!
I was waiting for Baby Dunk to dangle the ice pick over him! I think It's A Gift and Man On A Flying Trapeze are masterpieces. Watched them a hundred times...so far. Fields is perfection! And in both movies Kathleen Howard is the exasperated/exasperating wife---also incomparable!
You left out the best part when the shotgun goes off and the whole swing falls down. I laughed like crazy the first time I saw that as a kid. I also love the Carl LaFong bit. Capital L, small A, capital F, Small O, small N, small G. LOL
@@joelwexler That was Baby LeRoy. My fave part is when the mom and daughter are screaming back and forth about syrup of squill or ipecac? And then "Where should I go?" names 2 stores..."I don't care..." Finally Fields says, "I'll tell you BOTH where to go!" Then Field's wife comes out and says, "Who is that woman I heard you talking to?" And Fields says, "It was just Mrs (So-and-So) from upstairs, to which his wife replies: "It seems to me you're getting AWE-fluly faMILiar with Mrs ______ upstairs."
💞💞 THER'S A BLOOPER AT 4:06. HOW IN THE WORLD, DID THAT SWINGING BENCH, GOT STRAIGHT? I DIN'T SEE IT BEFORE,BECAUSE I GOT DISTRACTED. BUT NOW I SAW IT, BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN THIS CLIP, SO MANY TIMES BEFORE, BUT I DIDN'T NOTICE THE BLOOPER!! 💞💞 AND IT IS A DOOZY!! 💞💞
AND YOU ARE DRUNK AND YOU ARE CRAZY, I'LL BE SOBER TOMORROW, AND YOU WILL BE CRAZY FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. GOD I LOVE W,C, FIELDS!! HAVE YOU SEEN HIM JUGGLING, WOW!!! HOW PERFECT HE DID THAT, BEFORE HE BECAME AN ACTOR, HE WAS THE WORLS BEST JUGGLER. HOW HE COULD DO THAT? THE MAN WAS A GENIUS!! AND FLAWLESS JUGGLER
Classic W.C.,!! Later on W.C. has a classic encounter with “Baby Leroy” One of the funniest scenes in Hollywood comedic history!!! Awesome antiquated Hollywood Slapstick, courtesy, William Claude Dukenfeld!! Love you, Bill!!

"... If you and your friend wish to exchange ribald stories!" I could watch this clip a thousand more times and still laugh.
'Ribald stories' - absolute perfection.
Ribald stories! One of countless kills in that scene.
I laugh without seeing it. I can hear her voice.
ribald with the accent on the ri. Too funny
Oh, and that's Bisson-nay.

I totally agree. Some years ago my Mom found some CD's of his in the dollar store & bought them all for me. Man was beyond funny
this is absolutely one of the best scenes ever in film history. i have watched it for decades. a total classic.
AGREED!!! 💞
Only Mr. Fields could play with slap stick, language & sight gags. 😂
From the bedroom through Carl LaFong, yes the best scene ever.
The whole movie is great, his best.
@@johnhagans2190 The way he made his pain hysterical.
And the wife with her ribald story's line! This is truly a classic scene!

Still great at 88!

Did the wife come out and scold you for telling "ribald" stories at 3 in the morning?
It's a Gift is my fathers favorite movie and this is his favorite scene. Every Christmas I make sure to sign one of the tags on his presents "From Carl LaFong." He always gets a kick out of it!
It's like the coconut is deliberately trying to irritate Fields. At his absurdist best. Brilliant scene
Yeah, the coconut is the funniest part to me!
W.C. Fields in my opinion was one of, if not thee geatest comedians ever. The man was a comidic genius. I could watch his movies every day. I wish there was someone close to his skills as a comidian, this gentleman wrote almost all of his movies.
Timeless humor. Funnier than anything out today by a long shot. Truly clever.
my dad’s favorite movie. he passed away but i still watch this sometimes to remember his sense of humor
"Then why did you invite him up here!?" LOL!

One of the greatest films of all time. So many timeless moments.
Then why did you invite him up here?
Fields is just as brilliantly funny today as he was 100 years ago. And people will still be laughing at him 100 years from now.
Carl LaFong. Etched in my memory from 50 years ago. ❤️❤️❤️
You left out one of the funniest parts. The scene with the mother and daughter yelling back and forth to each other. Hilarious!
Ipecac!
Chuckscott Mrs Dunk!
"It's a Gift"
I can’t hear you dear there’s somebody shouting on the floor below.
@@mikecane I vote for syrup of squills
“Make a little less noise down there will ya…”
One of the best WC Fields routines .... “well he’s a chump” 😂
It's the "velocipede" that gets me.
Fields had a wonderful way with the English language.
"Harold will you please be quiet, please?!"
"Puh-leeez!" LOL!!
One day I too will be dressed up in a spruce suit at 5 AM inquiring for a Mr La Fong.
His wife in this movie was perfect for the part.
Raising Hella With Queen Isabella!!
AND WHAT HE LACKED IN LOOKS, HE SURE MADE IT UP, WITH HIS BRILLIANT MIND, THAT'S FOR SURE!! 🌹
His looks were perfect

.......and if I did know Carl LaFong, I wouldn't admit it.
I know Carl LaFong, and he is a chump.
Big C, small A, small R, small L... Lol
Fields was an amazing and unique comedic genius.
My brother and I loved this routine. Carl LaFong. 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Poor guy is just trying to get some sleep. For my money, the funniest Fields movie.
Agreed, it's a perfect movie. Excellent.
They are all priceless. Carl LaFong, what a riff.
If he wanted sleep, he shouldn't have invited his friend up.
I think he's a funnier victimizer than victim
I love this movie so much, that I bought a large hand painted portrait of W.C. Fields. He helps keep humor in the house.
An investment never to be regretted, no. Keep him good company. 👏🏻
Welcome to living next to my neighbors
IT’S A GIFT IS HIS MOST FUNNIEST MOVIE!! NEVER GETS OLD!! 😂😂
This strikes a chord...lol. We've ALL been there just tryin to get a little shut eye and can't because the world won't let it happen.

John Stucko I totally get it. It’s so funny. As is the rest of the film.

I haven't seen this classic bit in years. Thanks for uploading it. One of the best of WC.
13 years ago.
Timeless. Still funny after all these years.
STILL. one of the greatest comedy films ever.
Carl LaFong Loved it
One of the greatest scenes in film comedy...
Great post - thank you!
Salesman (speaking of Carl LaFong): "Well he's a railroad man and he leaves home very early in the morning."
Mr. Bissonette: "Well he's a chump."
LOL!!!
carl lafong: I use that line when my family extols some idiot; goes right over their heads
I love that bit with the coconut
Did milkmen really deliver coconuts during the Depression?
"Fear" the coconut!
I grew up watching delightfully as my father laughed until he was red and couldn't breathe. God bless W.C. Fields.
Easily one of the greatest comedians of all time...."As a special favor, could you stop playing with those sleigh bells?"
That was a hearty LOL for me! He’s a master of the absurd ... as if anyone would actually be playing sleigh bells.
Well said, I love it
@@eg4449 I Love it also!!
The greatest imho.
Found it at: "Its a Gift (1934)" here on you-tube. Great WC movie, everyone should see it!
WC was the greatest. Nice to know that some things don't change. Insurance salesmen are still trying to push crappy annuity policies.
I know Carl LaFong and yes he is a chump.
Capital L, small A....Capital F . . .
'If you and your friend wish to exchange ribald stories, please take it downstairs!'
The Master. We have all had a "Carl LaFong" day🤣🤣🤣
Carl L-a-F-o-n-g! Brilliant!

I think It's A Gift and Man On A Flying Trapeze are masterpieces. Watched them a hundred times...so far. Fields is perfection! And in both movies Kathleen Howard is the exasperated/exasperating wife---also incomparable!
Then w..h..y did you invite him up here?"
NOOO..NOOOOO..Don’t sit down there.....lol..ha ha
"If I did know Carl LaFong, I wouldn't admit it"
One of the best scenes ever from WC...
Genius !!
Simply a great movie,
W.C. was a character all right.
My grandparents had a swing just like that on their front porch in N. Carolina
Gifted He Was !
You left out the best part when the shotgun goes off and the whole swing falls down. I laughed like crazy the first time I saw that as a kid. I also love the Carl LaFong bit. Capital L, small A, capital F, Small O, small N, small G. LOL
And the kid dropping the grape down his throat. The sound he makes is hysterical.
@David Rinder THAT WAS BRILLIANT, THE Carl LaFong SCENE

He's working on hanging it back up in the previous shot.
70 years ago we got milk delivered by the dairy dude. Now the 95 year old dairy dude gets his diapers delivered by the Amazon dude.
"say what's your age?"
"none of your business"
"I would say you're a man about 50"
"ah you would say that"

Absolutely timeless. This’ll be funny 200 years in the future, if its been properly preserved.
17 Carl LaFong's don't know what real comedy is.
Make that 45.
57 now. Ha ha wtf. All members of the hills have eyes family no doubt.
This is one of Fields' funniest scenes.

Love it! We must make sure all the kids watch Fields movies.
This is a must see.
W FIELDS IS ALMOST OUT OF HIS MIND .
It probably WAS 1726 Pearl ave. but W.C. didn't want to admit it to the anoying insurance salesman.
He`s having a rough time trying to sleep it off!!
i love it

My favorite WC Fields movie, it's hilarious.
my favorite W.C. movie,
Now you know why he hated baby leroy. Almost killed him with an ice pick.
The setups remind me of Hal Roach. Just marvelous. I was waiting for the fly swatter.
Classic!
the "telemarketers" of the 1930s
Tony Soprano watches this scene from
IT’S A GIFT on TV in a scene during the episode The Telltale Moozadell in Season 3 of THE SOPRANOS.
One of the ALL TIME CLASSIC routines ever.
For only $5 dollars a month you can retire at 90 on a comfortable income !!!
One of the funniest moments in comedy.
Priceless! 😎👍
Iove it!!!
Syrup of squill... my favorite!
I wish you could show this entire scene. There is so much more "Should I buy Syrup of Squill or Ipicack...."
"No, you tell me where to go."
I'd like to tell you both where to go.
This is the best comedy scene in the history of the world.
...i dont care which....
... I don't care either ..
