CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Billy (Eddie Murphy) discovers the true nature of Mortimer (Don Ameche) and Randolph Duke (Ralph Bellamy).
FILM DESCRIPTION:
The "nature-nurture" theory that motivated so many Three Stooges comedies is the basis of John Landis's hit comedy. The fabulously wealthy but morally bankrupt Duke brothers (Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche) make a one-dollar bet over heredity vs. environment. Curious as to what might happen if different lifestyles were reversed, they arrange for impoverished street hustler Billy Ray Valentine (Eddie Murphy) to be placed in the lap of luxury and trained for a cushy career in commodities brokerage. Simultaneously, they set about to reduce aristocratic yuppie Louis Winthorpe III (Dan Aykroyd to poverty and disgrace, hiring a prostitute (Jamie Lee Curtis) to hasten his downfall. When Billy Ray figures out that the brothers intend to dump him back on the streets once their experiment is complete, he seeks out Winthorpe, and together the pauper-turned-prince and prince-turned-pauper plot an uproarious revenge. With the good-hearted prostitute and Winthorpe's faithful butler (Denholm Elliott) as their accomplices, they set about to hit the brothers where it really hurts: in the pocketbook.

Love how they call Valentine a psychopath, when they're the ones who have been plotting to ruin two men's lives in the end for entertainment...
It was for a Nobel Prize. Granted, their way of going about it was disturbing, to say the least.
And let's not forget, they straight up admit to have done this very thing before....*at least* once!
It’s a comedy, dumbass
@@JohnDoe-xk1dv that's a really good point that never occurred to me.
Yeah January 2nd thats gonna be a good day for you two!!!!
January 2, 1983 that is, ya baggot
Gamer moment.
I love the old convention of "just listen in on the bad guys talking, and they'll reveal the whole scheme to you!"
damn it, I knew we shouldn't have had this exposition bathroom installed!
Yeah, ain't it great?
Was it in fact an "old" convention in '83 though? Hmmmm..... still love this movie. No matter what.
I believe it's what the call a cliche
@@jldog134 it's really called a "trope" but yeah
To have them do a cameo on "Coming to America' was hilarious.
"We're back"
This movie was so glorious. I loved how these two acted like a pair of evil villains the way that they talked about their maniacal plan out loud. They played it so well I loved it
and at the same time there is almost something casual about the way they do it
Reminds me of the two older privileged muppets on the upper balcony lol.
@@jeremybk54 Evil is often very casual about how it acts.
@@byranpierce213Waldorf and I forgot the other one's name
@@KingDro-c5rStatler
don ameche didn't want to say that word. he was offended by it as he was one of the few hollywood actors in the 1940s to stand up for the civil rights of african-americans. eddie and john landis had to convince him to say it for the scene.
thevoid
that doesn't surprise me
By all accounts he was a very principled man
Oh and a great actor as well
Yet it rolled off his tongue like he's said it a million times.
MrAddidas2 That's kinda the point of acting. He's supposed to make it sound comfortable, not strained.
thevoid99 that’s fascinating and doesn’t surprise me about Ameche. He must’ve been a classy guy. He had the same issue when he had to say the “f” word later on in the film.
Percy Carter Jr. It's on the DVD.
I just realized. These two were in Coming to America as the two homeless people when Akeem(Eddie)gave them that bag of money
That's correct... 👍
Yes, and we can only hope that they rebuilt their financial empire with that money.
You need to get out more often. There's a big world for you to discover 🤣
and that's why Coming to America is actually a sequel. Thus, the new sequel to Coming to America makes this movie part of a trilogy.
@@Argumemnon I don't, they were horrible people.
I always hate how syndicated TV would cut out the N-Word part. It took so much out of the scene. This movie is a comedic masterpiece.
Brandon Thom Exactly, i grew up in the 70s and on Sanford and son, the Jeffersons & Good Times that word wasn't censored on those shows
It's censored in "The Shining" as well, and again, takes a lot out of that scene.
I remember watching it on a local channel around 2000, and they kept it in. One of the cable airings around the same time (I wanna say Comedy Central) muted it out, and it takes so much away from the impact of the scene. I get why they did it, but keeping it in drives home the point of how terrible the Dukes were.
waveali Yep, context used to matter.
The way he says it and Eddie Murphy's face is funny
When you think about it, the whole reason why the duke brothers did what they did was because they're simply bored. Ruining lives is their form of entertainment.
And it's really happening today.
@@ItsMeMissV369 I said it months ago. Some people probably made a one dollar bet that they could get everyone in America to wear a mask. It's got to be the only explanation.
One-dolar bet
@@brianlane9534 and I do believe they're laughing out of their chairs at people wearing athletic cup looking rags on their faces. Unbelievable.
It's the entire plot of Rat Race
the best part is how they hated having Eddie murphy working for them in this movie. but then end up loving him in coming to America
It was a thank you from Eddie. He loved those guys. Taught him quite a bit about the professionalism of the business early in his career.
Murph grew up on Long Island. You had some jerks, but for the most part white folks in the suburbs are regular hard working people. They weren't blatantly ignorant, just prideful as with any culture.
And Eddie picks on everyone. That's his genius.
@@charlesmurphy3222um I think he was referring to the characters they were playing in the movie
Its a brilliant image, how they are just washing their hands while talking about the bet. Very symbolic.
That's the kind of conversation that will kill your buzz extra fast.
Pure comedy genius.Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy are peerless masters. Salute from a fan.
Eddie Murphy in the 80s was untouchable. Guy could make me crack up without saying anything.
Heh heh heh heh😁
Indeeeeed! Ameche was such a great actor- RIP
I think they waited long enough it should be part 2 Trading Places let's get it done Eddie Murphy
So was Bellamy RIP
They both were. Both roles were so perfectly cast. Unreal. They just don't make them like this anymore. Shame.
This movie and coccon
@@herbsuperb6034Yes, I know. Bellamy and Amache were from my grandparents' generation, the generation who were elderly in the 1980s and 1990s, and who have all been gone for over 10 years now. There's a complete generation gap between that generation and the generation that the elderly today are from
I worked in the financial field and had a boss very similar to the Duke brothers. He explained the one-dollar bet to me and It's not only real, it was and still is very common. The point of the bet never was the money. (Obviously, by the amount of wealth they carried.) It was the formality between two gentlemen honoring the other's word at the end of the bet.
Ameche and Bellamy play the Duke slimeballs with panache.
+James King TURN THOSE MACHINES BACK ON!!! TURN THOSE MACHINES BACK ON!!!
I love watching them on really old to tell the truth episodes from the 50s & 60s!
@@The7legacy YOU & NOBEL PRIZE, YOU IDIOT !!!
In my personal opinion, if the Dukes had simply mentioned the bet, Valentine would have let bygones be bygones and let them off while helping Winthorpe get his fortune back.
He probably would have been like, “Let’s leave them be, they’re old men, and, while you didn’t like what happened to you, you got to see what went on in my life and you can appreciate what you had more genuinely.” Or something along those lines. This likely would have calmed Winthorpe enough to recognize that he was right.
But the moment that they used that racial slur, all bets were off and he decided to help take them down
Hold on. I doubt Wintrope would’ve been understanding about what he was put through. I mean you saw how he reacted loading those shotguns? Ready to kneecap some old men?
@@Legba85 Valentine was very good at hustling, so he must be very good with words. He probably could have talked Winthorpe out of it and helped make them ridiculously wealthy. Sometimes you have to face hardships to truly understand and appreciate what you have and what is important.
Don Amache and Ralph Bellamy as the Dukes were one of the best lying, scheming, two-faced characters ever in any film. Even Murphy's character as Valentine, who was a very street-smart character, fell for the Dukes's scheme for a while (even though he was skeptical of them at first), and made it look convincing
@Jewel Clark, yes, they do. Trading places is on my top ten favorite 80s movies.
This was _such_ a great movie. I only saw it the first time when I was like...15 or so but man what a good movie. I've always loved stories with not just a good ending but good justice for the villain(s). Those stories never get old.
They got Justice but they recover in “Coming to America”
I always laugh that Mortimer was abrasive when giving up one dollar when they have millions.
Ahahahaha that’s the comic genius in the film! Very subtle! But it was just the principle that he lost to his brother...
@@Reuben_95 actually, the genius of the film is Mortimer was so greedy he actually felt more losing $1 than the bet.
It is the principle of the thing. It is not that it was worth a dollar, but that he lost
@@toddkes5890 yeh exactly
@@toddkes5890 Agreed. I'll be honest. I'd be the same way 🤣
“We took a perfectly useless psychopath like Valentine...” 😂
There's no way you could walk into a bathroom where someone was smoking weed and you wouldn't know right away. 🙄🤣 But great movie nonetheless!
they are old.
also, finance firm in the 80s. you would have to sweep the coke off the bathroom counter.
Good ole 70s and 80s where you were allowed to smoke everywhere
I don't think these old guys would know what weed smells like.
That bit at the start was priceless.
"Shit, shit, shit, where do I put this joint, shit-"
*NOM*...
"SHIIMMMMFFTTT!"
ya, it was the joint that winthorpe planted in his office desk lol.
@@SuperMoeLarryCurly yeah i remember.
*tosses out the yellowjackets, the Quaaludes, the grinder...eh i'll keep these joints though!* the sad thing is he NEVER finished it...poor dude XD
@@SuperMoeLarryCurly One does not waste ganja.
I love how valentine exhales into the vent, then puts the hot joint in his mouth to conceal it! The dukes would have no sense of smell to not notice that! 🤔🤔🤣😂🤣😎
Yes and surely it would have burned the inside of his mouth?
This film just works on so MANY levels, it's incredible!
HILARIOUS
LOVED this movie, every actor was on form, the scene in the toilets was brilliant
see the look on eddie murphy face!!!
I got to agree with you that was the best part of the movie
“Of course not, neither would I” - this is right on the money even today. It’s a harsh reality
No it isn't.
What slimeballs the Dukes are. Love the way it ends for them.
until Coming to America
+Christopher Sharp The dukes were such dumb-asses!! They lost $394 MILLION DOLLARS over a $1.00 DOLLAR bet.
Spoiler they came back in "Coming to America" to make it big by Eddie Murphy's character giving them a chunk of change. I so hate that!
Well, it'll take them a LONG while to get their brokerage back, and still, they probably wouldn't even be as dominant as they were before they went bankrupt.
@jack hope that changed their view on black people
This movie never gets old 😍 🤑
In the beginning of the movie randolf and Mortimer are looking at a magazine and a newspaper while talking. The advertisement on the back of newspaper is for Apple computers. If they would have only known to invest all their money in that instead of orange juice and pork bellies 😂. Although they were already old in the '80s so probably weren't into the long term investment.
Interesting point from the scene, thanks. As old school investors involved in traditional assets like pork bellies & O.J. futures, yes they probably would have looked at Apple Computers and thought "Personal computers?! As if common working plebs would would be interested in that. Computers are for businesses, will never work Mortimer..."
At the time that the movie was made, the point where Apple was an amazing investment was mostly over. It was going to go through a rocky period and really wouldn't recover until the era of iPhones and iPods.
@@celebrim1 Microsoft, however...
You have to sell the bellies because the kid wants the kung fu grip for christmas. Classic.
I loved when they gave those two a cameo in Coming to America.
Ah yes the unofficial sequel 😂
“A perfectly useless psychopath like Valentine” 😂😂😂
"Well of course there's something wrong with him Randolph he's a Nee-Gro"
Hee
This movie is a perfect example of just what we need right now, but couldn't me made today because of the pervasiveness of neoliberal soft language watering down discourse. This movie is a more scathing critique of institutional racism, meritocracy, and capitalism than anything made today, made over 30 years ago. People wouldn't be able to see the forest for the trees today.
Agreed! Well spoken, and I'm Black!
I’m 14 and this is deep
I totally agree with you man!
Im italian and I truly believe in your words.
Nowadays it's all about hypocrisy, politically correctness and so on.
John Landis was and still is a great director and with his sarcastic and ironic movies touched many themes of contemporary world.
Back in the 80's but I think even in nowadays reality their characters and movies speak to us.
Many problems of neoliberalism economy (for example deregulated finance,greed and lack of rules) have their roots in the 80's.
They are so actual that they even called "Eddie Murphy rule" in the Stock Exchange market.
It is about "insider trading" crime I think.
John Landis a genius and the cast was really awesome.
Eddie Murphy amazing, so funny! And that role was perfectly fit for him.
No one could dl it better.
P.S. Fun fact: In Italy, this movie has been aired since 1996,the day before Christmas.
And I never missed it.
And you know what. 3 millions of people always watch it, basing on Italian official statistics.
Instant classic!
Billy Ray valentine Capricorn. Please make your acquaintance
It's a film u can watch many times over a lifetime and not get bored.
Love the fact that john Landis cast these actor veterans the Duke brothers. Don Ameche hadn't made a film in 13 years ("Nobody asked me," he explained to Landis) and Bellamy, though always busy, hadn't made anything of much quality. Because of 'Trading Places' both kept working steadily until they died and both worked with Landis again--Ameche in 'Oscar' and Bellamy in 'Amazon Women on the Moon' (as the grandfatherly pharmacist who sells condoms to a teenager.)
Don't forget their Duke Brothers cameo in Coming to America.
man i keep remembering him eating the cigarette and i crack the fucc up everytime

Never, I repeat never put a cigarette in your mouth.

The attitudes in this film are out of date.
No one should have to hide smoking pot.

@@senkoukura2011 Yes. It was a joke in reference to the warning signs that preface the films broadcast these days.

Love how this scene comes back to bite the Dukes in the Commodities Exchange.
The Koch brothers!!!

It's not just the super rich. There are losers and scumbags like this all around us now. They are part of a secretive network of people who steal taxpayer's money, destroy lives through classified torture and much, MUCH more.
America was never stood for truth, justice and the American way ... is greed and murder.
@@mirrortoyourweakness9769 If you’re talking about people who use public money for profiteering, the usual suspects are oligarchs, weapons contractors, and massive corporations. It’s not even a secret, there’s just nothing people can do to stop it. Bribery is legal in the US, they just call it “lobbying”.
@@southparkguy So is graft. It just gets explained away as 'speaking engagements' and 'book deals'.
I love how one speaks the name of the other in absolutely every sentence! LOL
Mortimer, Randolph, Randolph, Mortimer, Mortimer, Randolph, Randolph, Mortimer...
Love this scene, It has the n word, But it's done in a way that is makes you understand that they are bad men and is funny at the same time, Without making feel in bad taste, Classic Comedy.
This is so much like the Koch Brothers! At least they manipulate like them. Koch brothers are putting so much money into the elections it's scary. I pray with all my heart, that all corrupt candidates get caught in the corruption. I pray money doesn't control the elections, and Koch brothers are shown for what they are. Can you image how much good they could do?
Ein Loch ist ein Loch, sagte der Koch und vergewaltigte das Hoernchen. hahaha Wilma, you nailed it! :-)
@Wilma- What's really scary is morons who believe and post the kind of stupid shit you posted get to vote.
yes SIR!! hahahaha, Do you actually know that only morons love that name?? I hope you don't mind if I call you Sir??? It is much simpler then calling a faceless letiburnification Wilma. hahahaha
Wilma Lee Steele Yeah, the lefty "Frankfort School" following publications and organizations like Rolling Stone, Greenpeace, USA Today, Huffington etc... all say the Koch's are wery, wery naughty!!
or very very clever in business without feeling guilty of taking advantage from the naive trustees of any kind? hahaha
So what is naughty and who is judging?
Especially when we consider that we can only learn from pain?.........Just imagine them later? hahahaha
Willma, or are you trying to tell me that they try to fix it before it is 2 late for them?
Mortimer & Randolph - sounds pretty close to Statler & Waldorf the Muppet hecklers XD
You can learn a lot from cultural movies and music. When you look around 2019.
More so the revelation Valentine has when he realizes what's REALLY happened & what may be happening next!!
Check out the audio production work from the time they walk in through the old guy getting down to check the stalls. Check the hand and shoe sounds. Gives those awards for arcane awards categories a new meaning.
This movie is the opposite of politically correct, but I love it 😂
Damn, the Emphasis on the N word though
The bathroom scene was the greatest part of the movie it shows you some people do not play well with others
Back when movies could still say the N word & in a comedic dialogue, can you imagine if they came out with this today?
@Napoleonic Emperor Exactly! 😒 This shocked me in 1980 something when I saw it as a kid. My eyes went wide like Eddie Murphy's eyes.
I didn't find it funny then and I definitely don't now.
A-This scene was not 'comedic dialogue' it was a major plot point in the movie made by the protagonist's.
B- Plenty of movies use the N word today from comedy to drama to horror etc.
C- It looks like you're just trying to have a whinge at the PC crowd, I hate PC, but you are way off the mark here and just look like an idiot.
After all the eggshells people have been walking on for the last 20 years, just hearing him say that so blatantly caught me off-guard like a sack of bricks to the face in bed. I'm not offended, just surprised. I've never seen this movie before; never even heard of it until a couple months ago, and still haven't seen it yet, but now, I'm interested; first by the conditions of the bet they were talking about- I'm curious to see how that plays out- but now also because of what else the writing might hold that you can't expect to get away with today.
You are too sensitive. It's just a word.
They play it on IFC every once in a while.
Fun Fact: Don apologized to Eddie before and after he dropped the n-bomb.
stop lying. don never wanted to say the 'N' word. it was eddie and john landis who convinced him to say it.
Actually, Eddie had to talk Don into saying the word. Don never used it, and thought it was disgusting. Eddie convinced him it was need to sell the scene. And... he was right.
I know the language is a bit outdated for acceptable and the blackface part was eh, but this still remains one of my favorite movies for how well it demonstrates bias and racism.
This movie is a classic!
Haha. The Dukes. Little did they knew that their 1 dollar bet would come back to bite them in the ass/Karma. Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche. 2 great actors. RIP :-(
1:08 its interesting that it seems like he was open to having Eddie Murphy as a director if his brother wanted to. But the moment his brother said no way he immediately got with the program. A subtle indication as to who was the 'main' brother.
Except that in the commodities exchange scene Mortimer screams at Randolph "I told you we shouldn't have committed everything" , which implies that Randolph overruled him and literally set them on the road to ruin.
@@sarcasticvalet1199 It doesn't automatically imply he was overruled. Just that they had a talk with different viewpoints and eventually agreed to a strategy. At the end of the day his greed made him agree to commiting everything. Plus its possible he couldn't accept that he screwed up and was retroactively blaming everyone but himself.
Why does it have to be either? One believes he is better at handling matters of personnel, the other at handling matters of direct finance.
When he put the joint in his mouth 😭😭😭
That what rich people really do dough
Love it when Billy Ray eats the joint.
When I explained to my fiend, after more than 30 years, that the title has two meanings, the look on her face. "The main characters trade places, and the film takes place in some trading places." "What!!?"
I can’t help but think about how he put his hands on a restroom floor
Happy birthday to ya.
Happy birthday to ya.
Happy birthday
"Where the hell is Beeks?"
A classic - love this movie
Just realized these are the hobos from coming to America.
I got the feeling that up until today some sick billionaires play such games with random people...destroying life's for one dollar...just cause they are bored and of course have no conscience, empathy, love!
Those two deserve everything they have coming to them!
Soros and Rockefeller?
This film really points out the Evil of society.
Mortimer Duke (Don Ameche R.I.P.) said the "N-word" like he meant it ...🤣🤣🤣
"One for the Money!, Two for the Show!"
How come all these clips look better than what I watch on Netflix
Those two make Ebenezer Scrooge look like Santa Claus.
Indeed !!!!
We have to wait for the Beaks report.....
Appreciate the fact that it's only while smoking weed that Billy Ray learns the cold hard truth
Years later, another iconic Black character in an iconic comedy would affirm:
"The weed be lettin you KNOW.....Evil lurks"
One good turn deserves another. Opportunities do happen. Thank you Jesus. Shalom
1:37 I N D E E D 👁👁
Yet his "Nobile Prize in Science," was so close, he could taste it.
I can sorta relate to Eddie Murphys character
TRUTH
Besides Ralph Bellamy, there's another actor who I think could have played Randolph Duke. That actor is Sterling Holloway.
omg yes
Thanks.
+Matthew Smollen sterling Holloway would have been amazing, just as amazing as Ralph Bellamy
Yes he would have.
Winthorpe: "My life was ruined by Winnie the Pooh?"
Damn that word used to slip right out
Every time I see a black republican, I wish for them to be a fly on the wall for these conversations.
"We should have a very happy new year" eh, maybe not
One thing about this movie is that Randolph actually respected Valentine over Wintrophe
It's sorta like the same way ur wyt liberals & conservatives operate. They both don't blk people but at least the liberals will smile & play nice about it.
Anybody familiar with Enki and Enlil, the two brothers who had ongoing disputes with each other?
This movie is loosely based on those two.
(eyes wide open) YES!!!!!
you talking about that fraud Zecharia Sitchin's "translations"?
Corey Holcomb responded to Lil Rel
I love hearing him say the N word with authority !
Not sure how the camera angles work in this shot ( 1:11 ) but how come you can't see Eddie or the stalls in the reflection of the mirror?
Valentine got lucky that he wasn't in the mirror or the Dukes simply didn't look since they checked the stalls and assumed it was empty
It was the Dukes!..it was the Dukes!...it was the Dukes!
Love this movie as child and still watch it whenever its on even 40 years later, a timeless classic. Did you know the two old guys are in Coming to America, they are the two tramps Eddies character gives a bag of cash to, it a continuation of their downfall from the end of this film.
