Dave upstaged his protege Chris Elliot and stole the movie “Cabin Boy” with this, his only screen appearance (outside of voice work and playing himself) as Old Salt in Fishing Village, aka Earl Hoebert. Even as a huge Chris fan, the movie is pretty bad. But this scene is a reminder of how effortlessly hilarious peak Dave was.

      I f’n love this movie.

      “You remind me of my niece, Sally. She’s a dietician”

    2. There was a thing where the letterman people had famous actors re-enact this scene. It was rather funny. 

    3. I’ve seen this movie once. And it was also the first time I ate shrooms. It was great.

      If this is David Letterman’s only film appearance how is he a “Film Legend”?
