. Yankovic was so flattered by this level of exhaustive analysis that he agreed not only to write the intro toThe Weird Accordion to Al
very enlightening,” Yankovic writes. “I honestly had absolutely no idea how incredibly awesome I was until I read this book. And I’m sure you’ll enjoy it too, particularly if you like words like ‘ineffable’ and ‘oeuvre’ .”That includes theskit where Al’s manager, Jay Levey, portrays Mahatma Gandhi very much against type as a gun-toting, steak-eating hothead straight out of an action movie.
alyankovic UHF, Holy Grail, Kung Pow, and Naked Gun made me the walking punny dad joke I am today

alyankovic I remember seeing that in the theater :)
alyankovic Still waiting on the sequal Al lol love UHF
alyankovic I hear that Ghandi will be in next seasons 'The Mandalorian' as the spiritual advisor to Baby Yoda.

The UHF album is a really under rated part of the weirdal catalog. That and Polka Party.
That movie is an underrated cult classic. Hilarious stuff. Fran Drescher & Michael Richards co-starred if I recall.
This might be the most underrated comedy of all time. Absolutely brilliant.
UHF is a classic in my household

To everyone flipping out about brown face.. it's making fun of the controversy from the first Gandhi film as well as making fun of Hollywood sequels
alyankovic In 9th grade we were learning about Gandhi's peaceful revolution, and I got my teacher to watch UHF, and he ended up playing this video in class as an example of 'How Gandhi could actually be a pretty cool guy'
alyankovic I have already seen this movie 50-something times since I was a kid, but HELL YES I'll watch it again!
alyankovic Wow!
alyankovic One of the greatest movies ever. Along with Airplane! defined my childhood
alyankovic Still waiting “Gandhi III - World Pacifier”
alyankovic This movie is the greatest. Makes me wanna have a Twinkie Weiner Sandwich.
alyankovic Except that wasn't Weird Al playing Gandhi; it was the director, Jay Levey.

That movie requires you watch with “Herbal enhancements”, just saying....
alyankovic One of the funniest movies ever made. Still love it after all these years.
alyankovic If you have never seen UHF please, watch it. Its, without doubt, one of the best films you will ever see and yet not remember every seeing it. Ridiculous

alyankovic Best...Movie...Ever
alyankovic In the 80′s movie UHF*
alyankovic You really wanna draw attention to a white guy in makeup 'playing' someone of another ethnicity in a positive light? Like I get that UHF is old and the world was even more accepting of casual racism back then, but... yeesh. :/
alyankovic Great movie 😂😂😂😂
alyankovic I loved this film but... No.
alyankovic Conan the Librarian Ghandi II
alyankovic Timely
alyankovic You’re about 31 years too late on this story, guys...
alyankovic Jesus y'all have some self respect. Why are you posting a clip from a 30yo movie like it's news?
alyankovic Maybe not something to draw attention to, Al.
alyankovic Listen, I mean, they envisioned Gandhi as a nuke-happy warlord in Civilization so I mean
Lol, this movie was really funny!
More black face? Really?
