Thanks, phroso. The "talking mule" bit brought it home. New one:
An ambulance crew respond to a distress call, go to the right address. One EMS man goes to the door and knocks. It is answered by a strung-out young woman, holding a shotgun, who demands drugs. The man is well into his explanation that they do not carry drugs in the EMS units, when she exclames, "Liar!" and blows him away.
Film?

Correct. Last line of *Lambs*, save Agent Starling saying his name a few times after he hung up. In context, the speech is just loaded with macabre irony.
