This is probably one of the most overlooked scenes in all movies.
Where they both try to lead everyone in a song of their choice.
First you have the snob with his "Three Coins in a Fountain" which gets him nothing but embarrassing crickets.
Then the slob comes in with "The Flintstones Theme" and of course all the low class white trash on the bus knows it!
It is great because it really does show right there in a nutshell the difference between the classes, upper and lower, and how out of touch the upper one is.
JH was a genius for putting that in.
