Grumpy Old Men (2/4) Movie CLIP - Remote Control (1993) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Max (Walter Matthau) pranks John (Jack Lemmon) while he's watching TV.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
This cheerful holiday comedy, a surprise box office smash, featured a generous dollop of raunchy, crude humor and was greatly elevated by the presence of masterful performers in the lead roles. Jack Lemmon is John Gustafson, an ice-fishing Minnesota native who has been feuding with his neighbor and former best friend Max Goldman (Walter Matthau) for decades. The battle of wills between John and Max is characterized by crude name calling and harmless practical jokes. Max is unaware that John is having serious problems, chiefly that his daughter Melanie (Daryl Hannah) is experiencing marital woes and that his house is about to be confiscated by an officious IRS agent (Buck Henry). When it seems that John and Max may finally put aside their childish rivalry, however, sexy new neighbor Ariel (Ann-Margret) arrives and dates both men, pitting them against each other more fiercely than ever before. Despite their mutual loathing, the death of a friend, John's problems, and a budding romance between Max's son Jacob (Kevin Pollak) and Melanie may force the two old friends to reconcile.

I love how he actually set his alarm clock to the exact time that the lottery ball TV program started, like it was that important to him to fuck with Lemmon. LOL

[gajda]

"I just have to do something here that's very important."  LOL!

[poolsidecanadian]

Walter Matthau’s talent is the definition of God given. He couldn’t have been anything other than a comedic genius. He just was that great.

[mrmusickhimself]

Can we give credit to the ad-team behind those Little Caesar's commercials? All of them were absolute gold.

[albertaproud]

These are some honestly feel good movies. We watch these around Christmas time every year. Never gets old.

[jasepark]

This is one of my favorite parts in this movie.

[Bull]

Max was a TV repairman. That's how he was clever enough to find a way to get a remote that was same as John and mess with him lol

[wickedwitchoftheeast]

I love how John worked it out Max was the one messing with him that's how you know deep down that they were friends because only a friend who knows you well could work you out so fast 🤣🤣

I'm amazed John's garden hose still works in a Minnesota winter 🥶

[roninn]

1:37 "Take that, you criminal!"

[babygiraffe]

1:03 always cracked both of my sisters up when we were kids. 😂

[tallcharlie]

Did anyone else realize that all those commercials were all Little Caesars commercials from the early 1990's?? My favorite is the "Little Caesars Band"

[rcr-ztof]

Schmuck doesn’t know what’s happening...

[jedhawkins]

John didn't win the lottery and Max did not enjoy his shower. The TV remote prank was hilariously amazing and you get sprayed by the hose for payback. 0:26, 0:45, 0:56, 1:32
