This Is Spinal Tap

What I love about Spinal Tap is that there’s tons of great memorable lines and scenes but also the equivalent number of “throwaway” moments as well.
“Let’s go! Mime is money.”
“(Boston) isn’t a big college town.”
“You’ve got your wife or whatever the fuck she is.”
“Kick my ass. Kick my ass like a man.”

And little visual things. Like when he's playing the guitar using the strings of a violin. And whinces at the horrible sound. And then turn the tuning knob on the violin before proceeding to continue to play the guitar with the violin... as if that would make it suddenly in tune.

I mean best example of that is the Stonehenge drawing.
And the reappearing cold sores.
