Fargo - Chit Chat (Funny Looking)

[taylork2008]

The snow is melting.....we would be in shorts and a maybe a sweatshirt lol

[SeberHusky]

1 dislike, eh? Doesn't sound like too good a deal for him then.

[2000TonsofPurpleJunk]

God i hate this so much they do it in every movie that is set in minnesota.they WAAYYY over pronuciate our accents.we dont sound like that. and for the people saying well then you don't live in minnesota then.i have lived my whole life about an hour away from fargo and we do not sound like.

[AucklandNZ1]

Brilliant movie - doesn't matter about all the incidentals you all mention...

[murielsartre]

@Valthjof, Dude's trying to clear away the slush near the driveway because if he doesn't, it'll freeze overnight and be dangerous when he takes his car out of the garage the next morning. I think them having the hoods on is a joke. In that weather, you'd have big coats on, sure, but not the hoods.

[dallasrichar26]

Your video is a favorite on Kiribati

[enarolloyd49g]

This video went viral on Comoros

[Valthjof]

Yeah, exactly, why are they all bundled up? And what is he doing? Sweeping water? 

[SeberHusky]

@Valthjof

Most likely sweeping the ice melting salt from the driveway, yeah?

[beanb626]

This is why this movie sucked so much

[shittyfagg]

@beanb626 boooo. Get off the stage.

[WREQUIEM]

@beanb626 oh geez

[Bonzostar]

@beanb626 actually, the movie didn't suck and this scene is a bit of film-making genius. A light-hearted addition to a wonderful film, laden with Coen Brothers black humour. Perfect.

[saxzw]

@beanb626 Best movie i have ever seen my life.nothing comes close to it.

[skunkape2]

This dialogue and accents in this scene were spot on realistic. If you're Minnesotan and haven't heard anyone speak like this, then you ain't been around much. It does piss me off that they're wearing the big hoods. You don't wear hoods when it's above freezing!

[Ironhandjohn]

They sound more like 'Yoopers to me.

[Mcnugzz]

I live in minnesota and that's sweatshirt weather haha

[TheBlueRose2008]

@Mcnugzz I live in Canada and that's tee shirt weather =D

[scarecrovv]

I called it in ....

[Elfulus5]

loved this scene. and the end of it

[mattfreaknparker]

i've lived in minnesota my whole life. no one ive ever met sounds like that.

[SDKM4o]

@mattfreaknparker

the people in this movie remind me more of people in the UP

[Warpath2198]

@mattfreaknparker u are full of crap too.

[mattfreaknparker]

@Warpath2198 ???

[123123abcxyz]

As long as I've lived in Minnesota, no conversation with family here that I haven't seen in a while, hasn't included the weather. Many times, it's the first thing we talk about; not the family, not their lives, not my life, but the weather.lol

[UncleErnie71]

He says "ohhhhhhh"

[EastmontGirl13]

reminds me soo much of my grandpa XD

[cesar1963able]

@EastmontGirl13 Yep. I was born in Minneapolis, and both parents the same. But THEIR parents from Fargo area. Also farmers. They talked JUST LIKE THAT DUDE. Hilarious. Right on the money. My dad joined the military, so we lost the accent, but my aunts, uncles and cousins----GEEEEEEZ.

[vindr5150]

Haha, this was my favorite scene of the whole movie, ya?

(On a side note, when I did live in Minnesota, I remember driving through that area somewhere. God do I miss it there...)

[VioletWolf24]

Minneapolis? Fuck everyone lmao. *Saint Paul resident* =.=

[lucaschallenger]

Who's doctor V?

[MaliceBlackhart]

Dr V brought me here!

[FenrirLupara]

Doctor V brought me here!

[TechnicolorMammoth]

Dr. V brought me here. Goin' crazy, yah.

[ChillblaineFilms]

Doctor Vuluptua brought me here

[T9C1PSayWha]

lol I love this fuckin' movie.

[ooohnanana]

reminds me of canada

[Priorboy]

@ooohnanana hahaha im from canada, and we do kinda have an accent but the one in the video is more accurte to the minnesota area. I think its b/c of their Swedish/Norweigan heritage.

[TheCrabman5]

@Priorboy

You got that right.

[IslamistTube3]

Classic Movie !..."jeez I'm going out there at the lake"..."kinda a funny looking"...blahhhh

[hellohello66666]

Screw it im immigrating to Minnesota

[krammit69]

man watching all these videos on here now makes me want to watch this again. It's Wed. night and anything is better than American Idol. BARF

[bluecatky]

1:00 "And I says, well that don't sound like too good a deal fer him then." ROFL!

[IamMikeBane]

This town is 20 miles south of Canada. My grandma lives in this town, Hallock. I've been here a million times.

[Gutsyndicate]

This more like Canada than Minnesota

[L33Tspartan]

@Gutsyndicate There's a difference?

[Gutsyndicate]

@L33Tspartan look you could tell these guys aren't from Minnesota, look at the way he dressed, you can't even see these guys faces, they covered from head to toe, and the temp is above freezing, the snow is melting. second, the old guy is using a broom to clear out his drive way, what minnesotan uses broom to shovel snow, we use real shovels, broom is used in places it doesn't snow. third, they call the movie fargo, even though fargo isn't in Minnesota? immitation at best.

[HopllyteAlpha]

@Gutsyndicate No but you use a broom to push the slush from the snowmelt off the pavement... atleast thats what they use up in Bismarck... its easier than trying to shovel water. If you notice only the ice on the roads is melting... and it has salt and dirt in it....INIT!

[voltvoltvolt1234]

@Gutsyndicate The Minnesotans all bundled up from head to toe is apart of the humor. The writers are poking fun from where they came from.

And using a broom is move the slush/water is much easier than trying to shovel it. Ever try to shovel slush? It weighs a lot.

And Fargo is the place where this whole storyline started.

[damagebrain1]

@Gutsyndicate i use a broom all the time in the winter. ether for getting slush off of for salt. and i also use one after a light snow. i see people dressed like that all the time during winter. even when the snow is melting

[N0Doubts]

what the hell a parka i would be in shorts and a t shirt looks like 40 degrees. it was minus 10 the other say so i put a sweatshirt on and was a little too warm. And a broom could have at least used a shovel brooms no help when theres 3 feet of snow in your driveway and you need to be to work in ten minutes...

[greenbaysteve]

Its above freezing, look at the water puddles. I would be seating in those clothes

[VivaLaVivaldi]

End of story.

[melissarosemorrison]

Okay, just let me clarify, very few people talk like this. Like someone said, it's the older generation, the guys that have been farming since God knows when. That's what makes this movie brilliant - the portrayal of Minnesotans is so ridiculous, it's hilarious. This scene was actually filmed in my hometown, I drove by that grain elevator back there almost every single day when I was in high school, and that's a classmate of mine's house. Northern Minnesota! :)

[analyticaa]

@melissarosemorrison Coen brothers do this alot. They take a stereotype, and then play it like it's real. They do the same thing in Raising Arizona.

[juize85]

@analyticaa absolutaly true!

[BumwhiffleZoopstanky]

As a Minnesotan, I say that this guy does the most accurate version of our patois. (I refuse to call it an "accent".) You'll find it in Central MN, and mostly among the older folks, as the movie portrays. Down here in Minneapolis/Saint Paul, it is much less pronounced. Without a doubt, the most inaccurate portrayal was from Jean, the wife who went into the woodchipper. She was so annoying that you were cheering the guy who shredded her.

[benzejaa]

@BumwhiffleZoopstanky Jean didn't get put into the wood chipper, Carl did. Marge states at the end of the movie that Jean was in the cabin (presumably dead, but whole and in once piece.)

[BadgerCheese94]

Doncha mean Brainerd small talk?

[Biffbradford]

It looks like it's 40 degrees out. For Fargo, that's summer!

[WarHighlanderMkII]

They talking about Lake Wobegon?

[MaxCovington543]

The cop looks like Kenny McCormick with that hood.

[sk8terhumes12345]

this movie made the minnesota accent legendary!

Minnesota ftw

[orangevertigo]

He's funny looking in a general way

[dondickson]

some people sound like that up here. what is not accurate is how bundled up they are when the snow is melting... you are more likely to see people in shorts when it is above freezing, especially in spring.

[tobyruncorn2]

A brilliant scene. My favourite in the entire movie. It has it all.  And a comment on the weather.

[MicrophoneFarmer]

Kind of the best movie of all time.

By the way, softkitti, it's pretty clear that you guys don't actually talk like that. But good for you for protecting your people's pride.

[softkitti]

I wish I had a Minnesota accent. It's more fun than mine. I'm from Indiana, I think we sound whiny, nasal. Not the interesting nasal, whiny of New Jersey either. :(

[MJCtv3]

@softkitti sorry but we don't really sound like that, well some people do but that is up north in the boundry water area, but ya this movie is really exaggerated(:

[GeminiBreaker]

@softkitti Sorry to disappoint you, but most Minnesotans, especially in the Twin Cities, don't talk like this.

[python208]

@GeminiBreaker Yah, ya bet'cha!

[Istanbul0687]

@GeminiBreaker

its Fargo, not Twin cities

[Gwynne66]

I says 'Well, that don't sound like too good a deal for him then...'

ROTFLMAO!

[hhhhdd4]

This scene represents the most authentic form of Minnesota dialogue/accent in the movie. Most of the other scenes overdo the accent, but probably intentionally. But this scene just nailed it. You can tell the guy speaking grew up in MN

[psykikwarriorovgaia]

ohhh, just in a general kinda way

[MentalSentinel]

Jeez, I'm going crazy out there at the lake.

[Calvinkoolz]

i wish i could talk like that...

[randianpole]

oh yeah, doncha know

[patteel]

I lived in Eden Prairie for 2 years and met several very nice people with this accent and sentence cadence. As I am originally from the south, I found the difference charming.

[Imiguana]

I worked for a small firm outside MInnetonka for three years. Four times a year they would fly my out from Detroit to Minnetonka for quarterly meetings. This guy totally sounds like the plant manager out there. Come to think of it, that guy hailed from just outside Brainered. Anyway, I really don't think this guy is faking the accent. Hell, you could probably catch him ice fishing on North Long lake every winter in that same coat.

[aceirmada]

I heard some Minn. teachers on a plane and they talked to each other just like this. Nobody whose lived in the same area most of their life knows what they sound like to an outsider. Jesse "the Mind" Ventura even had a lot of the accent.

[Kanagawaboy]

Oh yeah...some Minnesota folks do speak like that. Can't imagine they're too happy about how this movie shows some them, though...

[I4gotmyMANTRA]

Kinda funny lookin.

[SBRThaBeastyBoy]

i bet no one watching this video has ever heard someone from up here say something! thats a complete stereotype, i'll admit we say ya know or you know every once in a while like canadians say eh every once in a while but in this movie they make it sound like we always sound like this its kinda funny but gets annoying

[ThisIsStupidist]

it was the 80s (when the movie was suppose to be in) i am sure the people with those accents died out

[BeastMode1895]

well some ppl still have an accent like that, they're usually older ppl or sometimes farmers

[djb1969]

Or else they're outstate, i.e. not in the Twin Cities metro area. The accent there is not as exaggerated, but it's still there. My relatives outside Mpls/St Paul still talk a lot like this, but the ones who live in town seem to have lost most of the more pronounced bits. But still, they have the accent. (Full disclosure: I'm a MN resident for 40 years- all my life. I've lived in the Twin Cities and Rochester, and my family is from the Bemidji area originally).

[AgentAJD]

Mrs. Mohra heard about the homicides down here and she thought I should call it in, so... I called it in... End o' story.

[barcelona36]

Best scene, hands down.

[giraffepoo]

WoooooHoooooooo!

[pkossdude]

I love this XD

Great Movie
