W.C. Fields: Any number of scenes from his movies were hilarious. "You Can't Cheat An Honest Man" & "The Bank Dick" were screwball terrific.

"Take the Money and Run", "Play It Again Sam", and "Annie Hall" by Woody Allen.

"The Pink Panther Strikes Again": The scene where Clouseau interrogates the staff is just one of several laugh til you cry scenes.
