Emma Stone is a huge fan of the 1987 John Hughes comedy,
Planes, Trains and Automobiles. So much so that she memorized a vulgar and exasperated monologue by the film’s costar,
Steve Martin, reciting it during a recent appearance on
Jimmy Kimmel Live! in a wonderfully tasteful television moment.
Known as “the rental car scene,” the original film’s monologue has Martin’s character, Neal Page, taking out his frustrations on a clerk. The film depicts the three-day odyssey of Martin and John Candy as they try to get home to Chicago in time for Thanksgiving. Along the way, everything goes wrong, and hilarity ensues.
The Stone recitation of that monologue is a bit paint-peeling, so viewer discretion is advised on the video roll. But Stone’s efforts were acknowledged by the originator in a recent tweet, as seen below
