Forbidden Planet
"Another one of them new worlds. No beer, no women, no pool parlors, nothin'! Nothin' to do but throw rocks at tin cans, and we gotta bring our own tin cans."Fail-Safe
"If we can't convince them it's an accident that we're trying to correct, by any means, we're going to have something on our hands that nobody bargained for... and only a lunatic wants."Charade
Reggie Lambert: "I already know an awful lot of people and until one of them dies I couldn't possibly meet anyone else."My Favorite Year
Peter Joshua: "Well, if anyone goes on the critical list, let me know."
Reggie Lampert: "Why do people have to tell lies?"
Peter Joshua: "Usually it's because they want something. They are afraid the truth won't get it for them."
[Alan Swann has blundered into the wrong restroom]Red River
Lil: "This is for ladies only!"
Swann: "So is this, mum, but sometimes I have to run a little water through it."
"There are only two things that are better than a gun: a Swiss watch and a woman from anywhere. Ever had a good... Swiss watch?"Pulp Fiction
"Jules, if you give that f*ckin' nimrod fifteen hundred dollars, I'm gonna shoot him on general principles."Goldfinger
"Choose our next witticism carefully, Mr. Bond. It may be your last."The Duelists
"I am going to be killed responsibly, on horseback, as a compliment to the cavalry."Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
"You can't fight in here, this is the War Room!"The Third Man
"Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly."

I love Charade, at least twice a year.
ReplyDeleteAnd here's one from The African Queen:

That is a great movie, and a great bit of dialogue. Thanks, Herb.
ReplyDeleteAs usual, you've added by some great ones yourself, J.D. Thanks, my friend.
ReplyDeleteSame here. I have to watch the great pairing of Audrey and Cary at least once a year. I just re-watched the recently released disc of The African Queen. Another classic. Thanks, Naomi.
ReplyDeleteMore excellent choices. Most anything from Pulp Fiction makes we laugh, and you've hit on just about my favourite movie quote with those immortal lines from Welles.
ReplyDeleteVery kind of you to comment, my friend. Thank you, Steve.
ReplyDeleteAnother fine selection - and that little speech by Welles from The Third Man is a touch of pure genius IMO.
ReplyDeleteYes, that speech is pure genius by Welles. I had to include that one. Thank you very kindly, Colin.

Hehe. Good one, Bev. Thanks.
