The Naughty Nineties | Who’s on First? — Abbott and Costello #TheThreeStooges #classic xD #satire #yt
The classic Abbott and Costello routine "Who's on First?" — a wordplay/identity-confusion sketch where players' names are Who, What, I Don't Know, etc.; it's widely parodied (including a gag in Rush Hour 3 that references the same "Who/What" confusion). #cineaste #MovieHistory :awesome:

Ignore the video's clickbait title. It's a nice story about the resolution of film before and after the advent of "Digital Intermediate" (I didn't know that editing in Avid was originally in something like 320x200 pixels or that Oh Brother Where Art Thou" was the first production to scan a whole movie at high resolution for digital color grading).

‘Time Warp’ dance still winning hearts as ‘Rocky Horror’ turns 50 – USA Today
Let’s do the ‘Time Warp’ again! The story behind ‘Rocky Horror’s signature song
By Brian Truitt, USA TODAY
Barry Bostwick has a witty response at the ready anytime someone asks him if he can do the Time Warp.
“I go, ‘Well, is it a step to the left or is it a step to the right?’ They have to say it’s to the left. I say, ‘Because I only remember the pelvic thrust.’ That to me was the most important part of that dance,” says “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” star about one of the soundtrack’s signature songs.
The music of “Rocky Horror” for decades has entertained generations of fans, from the original 1973 stage show in England to the 1975 cult classic movie to so many revivals and midnight showings since. (The film’s 50th anniversary is being celebrated with a newly restored version on tour through November and a 4K Blu-ray/DVD out Oct. 7.) Everybody’s got their favorite showtune, but what was supposed to just be a twist on the Twist, the buoyant and catchy “Time Warp,” found a life of its own.Join our Watch Party!
Fran-N-Furter (Tim Curry, center) with his minions Columbia (Nell Campbell), Magenta (Patricia Quinn) and Riff Raff (Richard O’Brien) in “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.”“The genius thing was the ‘Time Warp’ told you how to do it,” says Patricia Quinn, who played the servant Magenta on both stage and screen. “The only other song to do that was the ‘Hokey Pokey.’
‘Time Warp’ came from needing a ‘Rocky Horror’ dance
Rehearsing for the original “The Rocky Horror Show” stage show in 1973, director Jim Sharman wanted a song-and-dance number for the three servants. Riff Raff (O’Brien), Magenta and Columbia (Nell Campbell) are minions of Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry), a lingerie-clad mad scientist from the planet Transsexual who creates a “Frankenstein”-esque muscle man named Rocky.
Campbell recalls Sharman asking for something like the scene in Jean-Luc Godard’s French film “Bande à Part” “where two gangsters and their moll put some money in a jukebox, and the three of them in unison dance the Madison.” (A popular 1950s line dance, the Madison is also mentioned in passing in the “Rocky Horror” movie.)
