The Seinfeld episode with the wedding in India, where events are presented starting at the end and leading backward in time to the beginning, is based on the movie "Betrayal" with Jeremy Irons and Ben Kingsley, which begins at the end of the story and ends with the beginning. The screenplay was written by Harold Pinter. A character in the Seinfeld episode, I think the groom, is named Pinter. This wouldn't be a side-by-side scene comparison, so doesn't belong in this collection, but it's another clever movie reference in Seinfeld.

Well, to be bluntly frank and honest, clever uses of the footage that went into crafting this piece of nearly perfect montage of movie segments, which merged beautifully with the Seinfeld clips, to be sure, that said, where I feel where the proverbial ball was dropped was in the lack of Schindler's List. I mean, seriously?! The English Patient is one thing, but how can you even remotely forget to include such a timeless art and memorable piece of cinematic wonder as Schindler's List?! It just doesn't work without it. That's just not right... especially where the whole Jewish angle is concerned. Don't mean to sound rude, & as much as I surely love the "show about nothing", but for me, at best, I'd say this was more like Fool's Gold... which would be perfect for Seinfeld's zany antics! Decent attempt, though.

They forgot one: “Wolf”: in “The Muffin Tops”, Jerry starts shaving his chest. His girlfriend likes him with a smooth chest and Jerry tricks her into thinking he’s naturally hairless. However, they’re trapped on Kramer’s tour bus and Jerry’s chest starts to itch. He runs away and jumps around like Jack Nicholson in “Wolf” when Nicholson starts to transform into a werewolf. Only Jerry howls as he scratches his chest and gets relief.

Fantastic edit! Love all of Seinfeld’s brilliant film references! Considering The Graduate is one of Jerry’s favorite films, I’m surprised that in 9 seasons, they never once did a scene with Jerry behind a pane of glass yelling for Elaine.

In 2023 , as a Chinese student , who lives in Germany , watched Seinfeld and CYE since 2012 , these things helped me get through the hardest times . When I was drowning in grief after my grandmother's death, when my best buddy met with an accident, and when facing the COVID-19 virus alone, Seinfeld and CYE kept me positive even in the midst of adversity. Thank you Seinfeld and Larry David and everyone else in the show , thank you.

I never put together that a lot of these were direct movies parodies, even from the movies that I've seen a million times. Hell, I love JFK, and Seinfeld, and of course I knew that episode was referencing the movie. But from whatever reason, I never put it in my head that Wayne Knight was playing the same role in both!

There is also the quote about the dead parrot Fredo - "Fredo was weak and stupid - he shouldn't have eaten that key" which is also a Godfather II paraphrase.
