Slapstick scenes? (I am teacher)

Stick on anything Mr Bean. It is famously universal slapstick humour. 

If you want good modern examples, check out the movie "Hundreds of Beavers". It came out in 2022 but it is styled on and inspired by old cartoons and silent movies. It's hard to pick out one specific scene, I'd recommend watching the movie and see what you like.

It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World

A Mel Brooks film called "Silent Movie", all sight gags and physical comedy.

My friend from Japan had never really seen slapstick before and when he watched the last half hour of Home Alone he was laughing so hard I had to stop the movie so he could catch his breath. So that's my pick.

A good (long one) is the chase scene near the end of WHATS UP DOC

Buster Keaton has a lot of great slapstick - lots of great stunts in Sherlock Jr. - the movie theater scene and the train scenes come to mind

Cary Grant's scenes in Arsenic and Old Lace are hilarious. He's brilliant at slapstick. He had some great scenes in Bringing Up Baby too, iirc

Depends how old you wanna go. Laurel and Hardy were the kings of slapstick.

Jacques Tati - Mon Oncle or Mr. Hulot's Holiday Both are on YT

Our Gang, Ace Ventura–Pet Detective.

Mouse Hunt is a fine modern example

Not necessarily slapstick, but Niles Crane on Frasier is some of the best physical comedy I’ve ever seen. Edit: sorry to any guys feeling left out. I don’t know what you go through as trans men, so I’m not sure if you get the same wonderful doubts that permeate the quiet moments.

This Marx Brothers “mirror” scene is a classic: https://youtu.be/VKTT-sy0aLg

The Naked Gun reboot & Fackham Hall both came out recently. I was lukewarm on Naked Gun but found Fackham Hall hilarious. There's also a lot of wordplay though, which tend stop be par for the course with slapstick so dunno how well that works for translation. There's the 80's classics - Airplane, the first Naked Gun trilogy.

Maybe some Jackie Chan movies? I'm partial to Who Am I.

They Call Me Trinity has a few

This Marx brothers scene has no dialogue and is my favorite piece of brilliant physical comedy. It has been copied many times. YouTube link: [Mirror scene](https://youtu.be/VKTT-sy0aLg?si=wPif55yhk3beBqKk)

Tag (2018) is a comedy film about adults playing tag, it is All slapstick

In no particular order other than how they popped into my head: Any and all of the Mr. Bean shows.  Rowan Atkinson is a modern master.  It also has the benefit of having very little to zero dialogue, so they translate really well for worldwide audiences. You could also look at Peter Sellers, specifically the Pink Panther movies, or the more modern remakes with Steve Martin. Home Alone.  The whole thing too to bottom. Laurel and Hardy are amazing too.  My favourite is "The Music Box" from 1932. Anything Buster Keaton. One of the fathers of Slapstick in film and an influence on everything everyone's done since. For more modern audiences, all with hugely varied approaches to slapstick:  Hundreds of Beavers, any films by Sacha Baron Cohen, Will Ferrell, Melissa McCarthy, Jackie Chan, Anything from Tyler Perry's studio.

Cant go wrong with Chaplin

How about Benny Hill or damn near anything by Monty Python. OMG I almost forgot Fawlty Towers!!!

Jim Carrey in general. Liar Liar, the Mask.

There is some in various parts of Army of Darkness, particularly Ash vs. himself and mini-ashes, Ash vs. The Necronomicons in the cemetery and Ash vs. the skeletons (the titular army) at the end.

Well, if you've got "Chavo del Ocho" then you've got "Chapulín Colorado" and all his coldly calculated movements. Cantinflas is also good for slapstick, though a lot of his humor is based on language. Danny Kaye's "The Court Jester" has a lot of slapstick in its final duel. Jerry Lewis was a terrible human being, but a talented physical comedian. Go with his earlier movies when he was still with Dean Martin.

Basically everything Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton did during the Silent era. The entire second act of the Broadway show and movie *Noises Off!* is a prolonged, and very funny silent slapstick sequence, though you need to see it in context for proper effect. Johnny Depp performs some great slapstick street theatre in *Benny and Joon.* Jackie Chan's action/comedies have some of the best acrobatic slapstick fights and chases ever performed. The Italian Terence Hill/Bud Spencer action comedies of the 1970s and '80s have some surprisingly inventive slapstick fight scenes.

The three stooges movie - 2012. Before anyone says anything. Yes it was considered a “flop” but I personally thought it was hilarious. Had all the right punch lines. And perfect for that slapstick comedy your are talking about

Any Donald Trump press conference or interview.
