CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Jake (Kevin Bacon) imagines his neighbors performing an elaborate musical number while mowing their lawns.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
An aspiring writer faces up to the responsibilities of marriage and family in this romantic comedy from writer, director, and producer John Hughes. Despite the misgivings he pours out to best friend Davis McDonald (Alec Baldwin), Jake Briggs (Kevin Bacon) marries high-school sweetheart Kristy (Elizabeth McGovern). After an abortive attempt at graduate school in New Mexico, the couple settles in suburban Chicago. Jake fakes his way into a job as an advertising copywriter, while Kristy settles into her own corporate job. The couple faces the typical ups and downs of any new marriage, especially after Davis visits with a bimbo on his arm, regaling his pal Jake with tales of the good life. A few years later, Kristy decides to stop taking her birth-control pills -- and tells Jake about it three months later. Plagued by doubts, unfulfilled ambitions, and images of a fantasy girl (Isabel Lorca) he once spotted in a club, Jake resists the idea of fatherhood. Then he finds out he has low sperm count and, his manhood thus challenged, lines up for fertility clinic-assisted stud duty. The birth doesn't go as smoothly as Jake expected, however, setting the stage for climactic realizations. Edie McClurg, who played the nosy school secretary in Hughes' Ferris Bueller's Day Off, makes a cameo appearance as an officious neighbor. In addition, a who's who of other Hughes alums and Hollywood stars lend their faces and voices to a series of closing-credits shots in which each suggests a name for the titular baby.

Ahhh. Middle-class suburban life - who could say no?
I saw this movie in '88 and to this day I can't mow the lawn without this song popping into my head. Also another musical comment on life in suburbia which mentions mowing the lawn, Pleasant Valley Sunday by The Monkees. SHAB has some scenes I don't like and a contrived ending, but there are some great lines and classic scenes like this one. Overall I think it's an underappreciated movie.
I can’t help but think that this is most ineffective way to mow a lawn.
It's like the complete opposite of Footloose
The two guys arguing in the beginnig always cracks me up
My old neighbor was like this! Lol! Peace!
This scene obviously represents modern man's alienation from a sterile suburban life. Along with Kevin Bacon's character's ignorance of the inferiority of plastic flywheels.
That flywheel breaks you got a lawsuit on your hands
Ever feel like you’re stuck in that perpetual battle to keep up with the rest of your neighbours to have that perfectly cut golf green grass only to stop and wonder, why do any of us even consider this a priority in life?
I sure do.
Nevertheless less, great scene I’ll always remember from another childhood Bacon movie
I like gardening and think making just a small amount of effort can make a big difference to how you feel about the place, however you should only do it for yourself and never to keep up with other people although a lot of people do!! All in all its not a bad film with some pretty good scene's.
All Briggs and Stratton
if i saw that later in my life i think i would be going crazy
Classic.
It reminds me of a "Fantasy Sequence" that you sometimes see on The Soaps.
*was this scene at all inspired by Culture Club's 'Karma Chameleon' riverboat scene ...*
Plastic flywheel!
no.
What song?
It's called Drummin' Man by Gene Krupa
Lol annamwriter. btw do you like arts & crafts
+fefiforum oh yes I do. You sound like you'd be a great technical person.
