And you are so right about the screenplay that Goldman wrote for that film, Naomi.<br /><br />Since you and John D seem to share the same affinity for the great <i>Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid</i>, you might be interested a short sets of posts I wrote last year on why I thought it is such an exceptional film (Corey and Jen inspired it).

You know I love the line from Butch Cassidy, Goldman wrote what has to be just about the finest screenplay ever for that one.<br /><br />Here's one from a western that was so low-grade that it shouldn't have had any great lines, but there was just this one from They Call Me Trinity:<br /><br />Tobias: Have you seen what faith will do?<br />Bambino: It'll work, if you put it in a rifle barrel.Naomi Johnsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3469856753989183551.post-47527912946813266922010-06-19T04:08:53.000-07:002010-06-19T04:08:53.000-07:00well all the Doc Holliday lines from Tombstone are...well all the Doc Holliday lines from Tombstone are great and I just looked up the meaning of I'm your Huckleberry, means I'm your man or the right man, so now I find out what he was referring to when he said "you're a daisy" ,means you're the best<br />It may be the best western ever, loved it.<br /><br /><span> You tell 'em I'm coming!

Here's a few more:
...Some great quotes, there. Here's a few more:<br /><br />Tombstone:<br /><br />"You called down the thunder. Well, now you've got it!"<br /><br />Rumble Fish:<br /><br />"And neither, contrary to popular belief, is your brother crazy. He's merely miscast in a play. He was born in the wrong era, on the wrong side of the river... With the ability to be able to do anything that he wants to do and... findin' nothin' that he wants to do. I mean nothing."<br /><br />Wall Street:<br /><br />"The richest one percent of this country owns half our country's wealth, five trillion dollars. One third of that comes from hard work, two thirds comes from inheritance, interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons; And what I do, stock and real estate speculation. It's bull***t. You got ninety percent of the American public out there with little or no net worth. I create nothing. I own. We make the rules, pal. The news, war, peace, famine, upheaval, the price per paper clip. We pick that rabbit out of the hat while everybody sits out there wondering how the hell we did it. Now you're not naive enough to think we're living in a democracy, are you buddy? It's the free market. And you're a part of it. You've got that killer instinct. Stick around pal, I've still got a lot to teach you."J.D.noreply@blogger.com
