    That line is from George Burns in *18 Again!* (1988). A bump on the head causes 81-year-old

    The actors are brothers, and the characters are brothers. Both characters are musicians -- pianists. Things come to a head, and they have a hillarious fight in an alley. Both try to fight without hurting their hands. This means a lot of grab-by-the-lapels-and-throw-over-the-trashcans action. In fact, the winner is the one who gets hold of his brother's hand and bends the pinky backwards. It's an instant submission hold.

    The "Workers" quote is from the delightful "Rena", played by _Svetlana Efremova_ in what may have been the only light passage of *White Oleander* (2002).

     

    Here's another:
