I was a kid when I first saw Splash and I remember this movie specifically for laughing myself to tears when E Levy got stabbed with the novacain needle and him trying to get up and get away...limping! LOVED him ever since.
Man,how I wish John Candy was still alive today.He would have definitely participated in this tribute,and probably would have had his own AFI lifetime achievement award by now.
Even though Eugene Levy's speech was very funny, I would have preferred Daryl Hannah to be the speaker for this part because she worked with him more since she played his love interest. I can understand if Daryl Hannah did not want to speak due to her extreme shyness or inability to feign joy over working with him. However out of habit, the speakers tend to be people who have worked and been in most of Hanks' scenes. Just saying!
Eugene Levy never got to the same level as Steve Martin or his even his old friend John Candy. But Eugene Levy is every bit as talented as these guys and definitely deserves the No. 1 spot in my opinion.
That wasn't Nick Nolte, that was Kurt Russel and his wife Goldie Hawn, and Goldie does look like she's smashed! But, she is also a practicing Buddhist, so being drunk isn't possible either. I suspect,that being a comedian herself, she was just laughing hysterically, like she did a lot on "Laugh-In".
It was SCTV's Stan and Yosh Schmenge (with John Candy) where I got hooked on Eugene Levy, one of the most bizarrely funny things that I have ever witnessed.
Eugene is a genius, yeah American Pie is what he is most known for amongst the mainstream but try watching Best in show or A mighty wind and watch his genius at just improvising a scene with a great ensemble cast a true master of his craft
