This women could sit on a chair in the middle of a stage for four hours with no intermission and read the phone book and she would still get a standing ovation at the end of it!
This is a brilliant piece of scipted eccentric improv. It really is something you remember after you have forgotton the movie plot. Wild camp and hilarious.
@doobiesmoke15 Carol Channing was originally supposed to "blow a raspberry" in that scene, in other words, stick her tongue out and blow. For some reason she didn't want to do that and instead just said "Raspberries!!"
@hybridbfly lol. Did anybody watch Season 2 of RuPaul's Drag Race? One of the contestants imitated Carol Channing and did a stupendous job of it. Worth watching!
@Hollywoodsteve Actually no, the whole movie is quite silly and nonsensical. ESPECIALLY this character. to this day i have no idea WHY she says raspberries
what the hell does high yellow mean? I feel like it is a racial slur that I never heard before or something. I dated an asian/white guy and his friends called him twinkie. kind of the same thing?
@jophus82 High Yellow refers to a woman who identify as African American but has very light golden colored skin. Twinkie means an Asian person who acts white (yellow on the outside, but white on the inside)
sometimes at big parties i'll pick up a bottle and yell out "RAAASSSPBERRIES" just to see who gets it....not ONCE has there not been at least one person who screams out laughing! so much for this movie being a "failure"
Eccentric, indeed, but Ms. Channing was way too very much of a Lady to go "thtththhpppphthtth!!!". So there you have "raspberries"! (U know, u stick ur tongue out between ur pursed lips and blow... that's called a raspberry!)
aw i came to watch this cus ive heard this line impersonated SO many times but never heard the original version....and the original is such a let down!
she really doesnt say it that funily...its peoples OTT impressions of it that are funnier! lol nice to see it anyway
download the part where she is shot out of the cannon and she says this...and then Julie Andrews says...what a full life she leads....
